Summer Nerd Special | Episode 97

from The ACE Podcast Hosted by Will The Greatest; The Reel Aaron Alexander

We kick things off by diving into the newly dropped trailer for Paramount’s Children of Blood and Bone. We unpack the stunning visuals alongside the heavy online controversy, Tomi Adeyemi's public departure from the project, and what this means for high-profile Black book adaptations. From there, we turn our eyes to the MCU's Hall H presence at San Diego Comic-Con. We react to the unexpected casting news for Black Panther 3, Ryan Gosling stepping up to rev the engine as the MCU's Ghost Rider, and the disappointing news regarding the official cancellation of Blade and Wonder Man Season 2. Plus, we share our unfiltered reactions to the exclusive Avengers: Doomsday trailer footage. We wrap up this episode with a full, SPOILER-FILLED review of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. We're talking favorite moments, web-slinging action, and where Peter Parker's cinematic future goes from here.
