I mean it was good don't get the random attack on Jupiter's Legacy lol had some IR at least. But yes Legacy is not cost effective and the action/cgi along with writing didn't match up with the Boys.
The Rocketeer Will Return in a New Disney+ Movie Star Wars Rebels actor David Oyelowo may star in The Return of the Rocketeer. https://gizmodo.com/the-rocketeer-will-return-in-a-new-disney-movie-1847587223 Fans of Joe Johnston’s 1991 Disney film The Rocketeer have been waiting 30 years for this news: a new, live-action Rocketeer film is officially in the works. It’s called The Return of the Rockeeter and it’s being developed for Disney+. According to Deadline, David Oyelowo (Selma, Star Wars Rebels) is among the producers and may star in the project, which “will have an all-new creative directive ... focusing on a retired Tuskegee airman who takes up the mantle of the Rocketeer.” That sounds like a reboot-sequel if you ask me. Ed Ricourt (Now You See Me, Wayward Pines) wrote the screenplay which is being produced under the banner Yoruba Saxon, a company run by David and Jessica Oyelowo. It signed a first-look deal with Disney earlier this summer after David Oyelowo’s directorial debut, The Water Man, was released. The Rockeeter originally starred Bill Campbell as a stunt pilot named Cliff who happens upon an experimental jet pack in the late 1930s. A jet pack that a group of Nazis are also after, as they believe it’ll help them take over the world. And so the film becomes a very exciting, period superhero film with Cliff eventually defeating the Nazis. It co-starred Jennifer Connelly, Alan Arkin, Timothy Dalton, and Paul Sorvino, and is on Disney+ now. If you haven’t seen it, or haven’t seen it in a while, it’s still truly excellent. Watching it even now, the film feels like a franchise starter. So Disney was surely disappointed when, upon release, it failed to gross even $50 million in the U.S. Since then, the film has always has a very passionate legion of fans, many of whom are filmmakers and actors themselves, so there have been blips or rumors of Rocketeer projects over the years (there was even a short-lived animated kids series). This one, however, is by far the most promising one yet, and fans have Disney+ and the Oyelowos to thank.
The retired Tuskegee idea is a really clever way to introduce a Black character into the 40s-50s era. I hope they touch on race (it would be ridiculous if they don’t) but I don’t necessarily want a civil rights superhero movie.

The Russo brothers left over creative differences, according to the report, but assisted in the transition to Kline.

Here is the first teaser for Prime Video's The Wheel of Time series, based on Robert Jordan's best-selling fantasy novels.
With the debut movie being a let down especially for the studio but it becoming a cult hit; this is a good time to re-start it rather than a re-boot or sequel. It's time to start paying attention the David and Jessica Oyelowo. They are starting to make major moves in hollywood. I hope this is the start of them skyrocketing(no pun intended).
