The Punchlist: This Week’s News for Nerds

7. DC Looking to Offer Two Stream-Only Releases Per Year on HBO Max

DC’s decision to do a simultaneous release for Wonder Woman 1984 on HBO Max and in theaters raised more than a couple of eyebrows. Now they’ve announced intentions to release two movies per year exclusively to the streaming service. This move may serve to draw fans of the comics to the fledgling streaming service, which lags well behind the likes of Netflix and Disney+.

5. Small New Details Confirmed for New Star Wars Shows

In an interview with Good Morning America, John Favreau noted that both Ahsoka and Rangers of the New Republic will take place shortly after the events portrayed in Return of the Jedi – as does The Mandalorian (which takes place approximately 5 years afterwards). Filoni is also credited as writer for Ahsoka. Lucasfilm previously announced that Rangers would eventually arrive at some sort of crossover event with other stories, as well.

2. She-Hulk Details Revealed

Kevin Feige explained that She-Hulk will be a “half-hour legal comedy” that will “stay true” to John Byrne’s 80s run on the comic of the same name (with maybe a little of Dan Slott’s contributions sprinkled in, as well). Tatiana Maslany will play Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk, and Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner and/or Hulk is also slated to make an appearance. Feige also teased that since Walters specializes in superhero cases, “you never know what Marvel characters are gonna pop up from episode to episode.”
