Fox is moving back their X-Men films, Dark Phoenix and New Mutants. There’s more fuel for the speculative fire about a certain big DC hero cameoing in Shazam. John Noble and Barack Obama (kinda) appear in new pictures from Legends of Tomorrow. Plus, the return of Dad Steve on Stranger Things, and new Infinity War posters. To me, my spoilers!
X-Men: Dark Phoenix/The New Mutants
Fox has announced new, later dates for the two X-movies: Dark Phoenix moves from November this year to Valentine’s Day 2019, while The New Mutants gets a hefty movie from February 2019 to August 2019.

Elsewhere, the film’s young cast pose next to a statue of Batman.
Aquaman
James Wan took to Twitter for an update of his “filled to the gills” Aquaman movie, and why he’s been “slow…as a sea-slug” in delivering a teaser. Insert fish pun here.

Stranger Things
During a panel at Paleyfest, producer Shawn Levy specified season three will be set in 1985, and “won’t be abandoning the Dad Steve magic.”
We’ll definitely get to see some more of Steve Harrington in season three, and I’ll just say we won’t be abandoning the Dad Steve magic. I don’t want to say much more, but I literally feel that we were walking along and we stumbled onto a gold mine with Dad Steve.
