Well at least they're using her actual backstory. I love Legends of Tomorrow but have absolutely zero idea why they even bothered with their version, Zari is nothing like the comics aside from the characters last name.

SO they are borrowing from Jack Kirby's Fourth World with Intergang..basically the Mafia with high tech weapons.

Interesting.

I just hope Rock actually attempts to act and play the character in this instead of just being the same version of himself he is in every movie lately.

 

I want to see Black Adam.

This is opening the same weekend as Indy 5? I wonder which one will move. I can't see them both staying.

Counterprogramming has worked out before.

They also have Aquaman 2 and The Flash on the same day as Avatar 2 and Captain Marvel 2 respectively.

Technically, the Flash movie is opening a week before The Marvels.

Counterprogramming usually targets different audiences though.

I think a superhero movie is different enough from an Indiana Jones movie for it to work out. Aquaman 2 opening on the same day as Avatar 2 might be a problem, though.

Indy will move.  I don't think it would have a prayer against BA.  I honestly have no idea how popular the character is but The Rock playing a super hero seems like a giant hit.  Indy is way past his prime and I would imagine it would seek a weekend to itself.

Noah Centineo is going to huge after this movie, just watch...

Oh this looks good. Excited for the first look.

Agree here. In fact, I think there's going to be a lot of reshuffling in 2022. Throughout the pandemic studios just needed dates to stash the films they delayed. Now that things are getting back on track they're going to start to reorganize. No way Avatar 2 and Aquaman 2 open on the same date. I can buy them both opening close together over the holidays but the same date? Nah.

To add to this: I think Indy 5 should move to Memorial Day weekend. Those movies have a MD weekend history with the exception of the first one only, I think.
