Is Red Skull in Captain America: The Winter Soldier? a Hasbro Action Figure Says Yes
6 hours ago
Hasbro previewed their action figure line at this weekend's Toy Fair for Marvel's upcoming Phase Two sequel Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which included the surprising addition of Red Skull, the villain from 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger, portrayed by Hugo Weaving. Does this mean the character will be back for the sequel? Check out the photos below, then read on for more information.
Marvel has not confirmed whether or not the character will appear in this follow-up, but the Red Skull toy is a part of Hasbro's main action figure line created specifically for this sequel. Of course, that doesn't mean he will be a part of this story, either in flashbacks or in the present day. Marvel also introduced a number of other figures that were inspired by the comics such as villain Baron Zemo and a gigantic battle-suited Mandroid, although The Red Skull was not a part of this line. »

Beetlejuice 2: Michael Keaton Confirms Talks with Tim Burton
14 February 2014 3:37 PM, PST
Will Michael Keaton be back as the "bio-exorcist" Betelgeuse in the long-gestating sequel Beetlejuice 2? He might be, but only if original director Tim Burton is involved.
Michael Keaton has only appeared in one sequel, reprising his role as Bruce Wayne in 1992's Batman Returns, which was also directed by Tim Burton (returning as Jackie Brown's Ray Nicolette in Out of Sight doesn't really count). Speaking with MTV, the actor claims that Betelgeuse is the one role he'd like to try again. And that he has had talks with Tim Burton. But nothing is set in stone just yet.
"I've e-mailed Tim a couple of times, talked to the writer a couple of times, but all really, really preliminary stuff until relatively recently. I always said that's the one thing I'd like to do again, if I ever did anything again. But it kind of required Tim to be involved some way or another. »
