Evan Peters as 'Quicksilver' in the X-Men franchise and MCU
The latest episode of the newest Marvel Studios entry into the MCU, the Disney+ original WandaVision, has officially changed the Marvel Universe forever.
As you can see, the episode ended on a shocking reveal of Wanda's dead brother, Pietro/Quicksilver, knocking at her door. Except, to the confusion of everyone, we instead see Quicksilver from the Fox X-Men films as played by Evan Peters.
This marks Peters' fifth time portraying the character of Quicksilver on screen.

As fans wait to see what this shocking reveal means, there is also a new theory going around involving the commercials in WandaVision. As you can see below, so far they seem to line up with each infinity stone, but is there more to it?

I've decided to take a trip around the web and find some rumors involving some very odd and most likely fake stories involving some of our favorite heroes.
The new Spider-Man has been revealed to ne a new 13 year old character named Miles Morales. He is half-black and half-hispanic and in a interview with Brian Bendis we find out more details.
What Bendis says about the theme of the new storyline:
"The theme is the same: With great power comes great responsibility," says writer Brian Michael Bendis. "He's going to learn that. Then he has to figure out what that means."
MARVEL's new E.I.C. Alex Alonso has this to say about Mr. Morales: "What you have is a Spider-Man for the 21st century who's reflective of our culture and diversity. We thinkthat readers will fall in love with Miles Morales the same way they fell in love with Peter Parker."
He also explains that the inspiration for the Caharacter came from Community star Donald Glover:
"He looked fantastic!" Bendis recalls. "I saw him in the costume and thought, 'I would like to read that book.' So I was glad I was writing that book."
He also added:
"It's certainly long overdue," Bendis says. "Even though there's some amazing African-American and minority characters bouncing around in all the superhero universes, it's still crazy lopsided."
"Wouldn't it be nice for them to have a character or a hero that speaks to them as much as Peter Parker has spoken to so many k we need more of i
After the recent announcement of Marvel legos, new photos of Iron Man, Hulk, Wolverine, Thor, Captain America, and more have surfaced online
As previously announced:
Two of the world's most iconic brands are joining forces as The LEGO Group, world leader in high quality construction toys, and Marvel Entertainment, LLC, a global character -based entertainment company, announced a wide ranging strategic licensing deal. Through the multi-year agreement starting as of January 1st, 2012, Marvel has granted LEGO Group the rights to develop a distinct Marvel branded construction toy collection -- LEGO SUPER HEROES -- which will bring the characters, vehicles and action of Marvel's renowned universe to the world of LEGO® build-and-play adventure. The LEGO SUPER HEROES Marvel collection's initial construction sets, minifigures and buildable characters are scheduled to launch in May of 2012.
The LEGO SUPER HEROES Marvel collection will spotlight three Marvel franchises – Marvel's The Avengers movie, and X-Men and Spider-Man classic characters. The LEGO Marvel's The Avengers movie line brings such ever popular Marvel characters as Iron Man, The Hulk, Captain America, Thor, Hawkeye, Loki and Black Widow to LEGO minifigure form. The LEGO X-Men collection includes minifigure comic versions of Wolverine, Magneto, Nick Fury and Deadpool, while the LEGO Spider-Man sets offer minifigure comic versions of Spider-Man, and Doctor Octopus. The first buildable characters in the LEGO SUPER HEROES collection are highlighted by Captain America, The Hulk and Iron Man. Select figures will be unveiled in the LEGO booth (#2829) during Comic-Con International at the San Diego Convention Center July 21-24.
"Our partnership with Marvel helps us continue to deliver some of the best and most constructible Super Hero stories of all time," said Jill Wilfert, vice president, licensing and entertainment for The LEGO Group. "We're thrilled to partner with Marvel to create creative, constructive play sets for builders, fans and collectors alike."
Joann Mclaughlin, Executive Vice President Toys & Hardlines, Marvel Entertainment, commented, "The partnership with LEGO Group furthers Marvel's strategy to align our brand with the best in class leaders across various industries who have the global marketing expertise and distribution clout to stand out in the retail environment. This deal solidifies the already robust presence of our characters and the overall Marvel brand in the ever important toy category."
The retail debut of the Marvel-inspired LEGO SUPER HEROES collection is timed to coincide with the highly anticipated Summer 2012 blockbuster movie release of Marvel Studios and Walt Disney Pictures feature film Marvel's The Avengers.
So unfortuantly the Avengers legos wont be released until next Summer.

Apparently, Hasbro added metallic finishes and an additive called rutile to make the figure sparkle. And although the eyes may look white, they have a golden cast to them when catching light in a certain way. The figure is also sculpted in a way to pick up all the details from the movie Spider-Man. The bottom of his feet were tweaked to look the same as the film versions, and he reflects Garfield's leaner physique.
And of course the Lizard confirmation we already new about:
EW can also exclusively confirm that Rhys Ifans will be playing Doc Conners, who, in an experiment gone wrong, transforms into one of Spider-Man’s most formidable foes ever, the Lizard.
The Amazing Spider-Man promises to be a "more contemporary,""more gritty," and "more character-driven" look at the comic book hero. He’s a hero the 27-year-old Garfield knows well. Growing up, "I related to Peter Parker [Spidey’s alter ego] so much because I felt like someone else inside," he says. "I loved the comic books and the animated TV series and I even dressed up as Spider-Man as a kid."
Adds Webb: "Ultimately what this movie is about is a kid who grows up looking for his father and finds himself. And that’s a Spider-Man story we haven’t seen before."
And new source claims that The Amzing Spider-Man trailer will be over 2 minutes long and before Captain America:TFA, as reported by SHH:
We first brought you word that The Dark Knight Rises teaser poster and trailer were debuting this week and now that same source is telling us that the first trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man will hit theaters next week with select prints of Captain America: The First Avenger. We're hearing that the trailer is a full 2 minutes and 30 seconds long!
