Zack Sharf Digital News Director News broke in 2015 that John Ridley, the Oscar-winning screenwriter of “12 Years of Slave,” was joining the Marvel family to develop a mystery superhero project for ABC. The network was already home to Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D” at the time, and a spinoff series had just been announced prior to the Ridley news.

Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor After a wild year that brought us an atomic bomb creator, a toy doll coming to life and an Indigenous woman’s fight for survival against her white husband, 2024 promises to be another exhilarating one with a slew of highly anticipated films and performances set to grace the silver screen.

There are also performers from long-awaited adaptations (Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in “Wicked: Part One”) and ones from movies that have been finished shooting for quite some time (Mark Rylance in “The Way of the Wind”).

We’re seeing that now with James Gunn’s DC Studios (that will forgo the previous DCEU), we’re seeing it mostly with all the 20th Century Fox Marvel properties that Marvel Studios/Disney will take in a totally new direction (“The Fantastic Four,” “The X-Men”).
