Chris Evans Wants To Star Alongside Chris Hemsworth In A Buddy Comedy

Chris Evans Wants To Star Alongside Chris Hemsworth In A Buddy Comedy

Chris Evans Wants To Star Alongside Chris Hemsworth In A Buddy Comedy. The Avengers: Endgame star wants to be in a new film along with his co-star, Chris Hemsworth, that steps away from the superhero suits, and pursue roles that push new boundaries.

One of the best things to hear about two of your favorite actors/actresses is that they get along both on and off camera. It’s even better when there is a true friendship beneath the surface view of said actors/actresses. One example is the nearly decade long friendship between two of the original Avengers actors, Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth.

The two Chris’s have been known to have a good time when filming together, but recently, Hemsworth stated that he and Evans have been separated on purpose when doing press events because they tend to “screw around and none of it is on topic.”

In a comment to Variety, Evans echoed Hemsworth’s remarks and took it one step further by expressing interest in acting together in another movie that has nothing to do with their known roles as Captain America/Steve Rogers and Thor, or anything to do with Marvel, really.

Chris Evans Wants To Star Alongside Chris Hemsworth In A Buddy Comedy

“We had too much fun together, and truly like kids in school, we were separated because we couldn’t get sh*t done,” Evans said of his relationship with Hemsworth. He also talked about his own ideas about the next movie they should do together, “I would love to do one of those ’80s buddy comedies, where we could shed the characters we are known for.”

Hemsworth seems to be one step ahead of Evans in the comedy department, and has taken the role of Thor in a more comical approach than when we first met the God of Thunder, as well as taken more humorous roles in other films such as Ghostbusters, and in his upcoming film Men in Black: International, where he co-stars with fellow Thor: Ragnarok star, Tessa Thompson (Valkyrie).

Would you like to see Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth partner up for a new movie? Are you shocked by their friendship, or that they are required to be separated during media events/interviews? Let us know in the comments what your favorite moments are on and ‘off’ camera between the two Chris’s, and what kind of story you would want them to tell! We would love to hear your thoughts!

Guest Sues Over An Alleged Bird Attack at Walt Disney World

Polynesian Village Resort

Polynesian Village Resort

Apparently some wildlife got out of hand according to a report by the Orlando Sentinels Gabrielle Russon.

Celebration, FL resident, Lisa Dixon, is suing the resort, claiming that she suffered severe brain injuries following an attack by a bird at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort in May 2017.

She also alleges Disney knew seasonal nesting birds could be dangerous. The suit brought by Dixon is seeking damages in excess of $15,000, according to the suit filed in Orange County Circuit Court.

According to Dixon’s lawyer, Thomas Schmitt, the bird “dive-bombed” her head with the force of a baseball, causing her to suffer a traumatic brain injury and herniated discs in her neck. The injuries will require surgery, according to Schmitt. The injury has allegedly her ability to focus as well as her personality, “changing her life,” Schmitt added. The type of bird could not be identified, aside from that it was a seasonal migrating bird.

Goose Fortune Cat, Or Should I Say Fortune Flerken

Goose Fortune Cat

Goose Fortune Cat, Or Should I Say Fortune Flerken

Fans of Captain Marvel know that it’s lucky to have her Companion Goose around! Now we can have some of that good luck too with the fun Goose Fortune Cat statues now available at the Disney Parks. Although I suppose we should call it a Fortune Flerken, since that’s no cat!

Goose Fortune Cat, Or Should I Say Fortune Flerken

The new Goose statue, is based on the Maneki-Neko statues from Japan. Maneki-Neko means beckoning cat in Japanese, and they are a common Japanese figurine seen as a lucky charm, that is often believed to bring good luck to the owner. The Goose version really is an adorable take on that tradition! Just like Goose from the movie this figure is an orange tabby. Like a lot of modern Fortune Cats, Goose’s paw moves slowly back and forth. While it may look like waving, the fortune cats are actually beckoning!

The Goose Fortune statue is available throughout the Disney Parks, and retails for $22.99! As a huge fan of both Captain Marvel, and Maneki-Neko statues, this is definitely on my list of must haves!

What do you think of the adorable new Goose Fortune Cat figure?

A very special thanks to our fabulous friend Meagan for these awesome pictures of Goose!

New Characters from Toy Story 4

 

New Characters from Toy Story 4
Just a couple weeks ago we spent some time at the Pixar Studios getting to know more about Toy Story 4.  During that time we were treated to a 20-minute preview of Toy Story 4 along with a presentation of its history from Toy Story 1 up to the current release.

New Characters from Toy Story 4

The Toy Story franchise brought us along on a fun adventure with our favorite Toy Gang, led by Woody and Buzz. A lot of us thought that Toy Story 3 would be the last we’d see them as Andy has given his beloved toys to a little girl, Bonnie.

In the first 3 films we were introduced to new characters that we grew to love or hate(talking about you Lotso).

Bo Peep, is also making a come-back in the newest film with an attitude!

Check out Bo and the newest characters to join the Toy Story Family:

New Characters from Toy Story 4

The most anticipated character return has got to be the one of Bo Peep. In the third film, we come to know about characters that have lost along the Toy Story cinematic journey. Woody especially seems down at the loss of Bo Peep. Little did we know at the time that Bo would be back for another adventure and better than ever. Actress Annie Potts reprises her role of voicing Bo Peep. Not only do we see Bo with new a new look, she’s also got a new sense of self. With her shepherdess hook in hand, she appears confident and ready to take on a new adventure with her favorite sheriff, Woody. We can’t wait to see what she’s been up to!

New Characters from Toy Story 4

Concepts for Forky

New Characters from Toy Story 4
The most interesting addition to Bonnie’s toys is one that isn’t a toy at all. Forky is a spork that Bonnie transformed into a beloved play time pal during craft time. Forky is adamant about his purpose being salads, disposal, and not adventures. With Woody by his side, he is slowly accepting his purpose as Bonnie’s new favorite toy, up until he goes missing. Now it’s up to the gang to rescue him. Voiced by comedian, Tony Hale, Forky’s quirky personality is already winning us over.

New Characters from Toy Story 4

In Toy Story 4, we get quite a chilling introduction to a pull-string doll name Gabby Gabby. This 1950’sesque doll that would be any little girl’s dream to own is not all as she seems. Her defected voice box leaves her with a slightly ominous tone instead of cheery. Gabby Gabby, voiced by Christina Hendricks, has been forgotten and left in an antique store for a very long time leaving her longing for a new voice box and someone to play with. Along with her band of ventriloquist dummies we’re sure to see Gabby Gabby stir up some mischief in this film.

Ducky and Bunny Concept Art

New Characters from Toy Story 4

The dynamic comedy duo of Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele bring to life the carnival prize duo of Ducky and Bunny. Although hilarious and super appropriately named, these two see the world a bit differently than Woody, Buzz, and their friends. Their one and only goal is to be won and going from town to town being attached to a game that was made to not be won, makes them see people differently as well. Ducky and Bunny are sure to bring the funny on their adventures with the other toys.

New Characters from Toy Story 4

New Characters from Toy Story 4

Perhaps the tiniest in stature of the toys, but big in personality is Bo Peep’s guide and right-hand woman, Giggle McDimples, voiced by Ally Maki. She fits perfectly on Bo’s shoulder and in the television spot for Toy Story 4, you can even see her on Woody’s shoulder too. For a small toy, she packs some huge energy and we can wait to see her on the big screen.

Canadian actor Keanu Reeves lends his voice to Canadian stunt-cycle toy, Duke Caboom. Although Duke has been kept in antique store with other forgotten toys, he will not let you forget he’s known for his stunts and poses. He’s got style. He’s got confidence. Is there anything Duke Caboom can’t do? Actually, he can’t do all the amazing stunts that are advertised in his own commercial! What’s a toy to do? We will find out this June.

LIGHTING — To create a sequence in Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 4,” the lighting department is responsible for lighting the scene in a way that supports the story—in this case, using shadow and color to help convey the tone of the sequence as it progresses from uncertain to mildly menacing. Directed by Josh Cooley, “Toy Story 4” opens in U.S. theaters on June 21, 2019. ©2019 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.

By far the creepiest finds in the antique store are Gabby Gabby’s team of ventriloquist dummies lead by head dummy, Benson. These antiques are voiceless, expressionless, and a bit nightmarish. The Bensons watch over the store and do as Gabby Gabby commands. We can’t wait to see how Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and their friends handle these toys.

New Characters from Toy Story 4
ROAD TRIP – In Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 4,” Buzz, Jessie and the rest of Bonnie’s toys concoct a plan to find their friends when Woody and Forky go missing. Featuring the voices of Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Bonnie Hunt, Kristen Schaal, Wallace Shawn, John Ratzenberger, Blake Clark and Jeff Garlin, “Toy Story 4” opens in U.S. theaters on June 21, 2019. ©2019 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.

So there you have it. Those mentioned above are the new characters in Toy Story 4. We cannot wait to meet all of them when the movie comes out on June 21st. Like all the Toy Story movies, we’re pretty sure that it will take us on an emotional journey to infinity and beyond with these beloved toys.

Tickets are now on sale for the film coming to theaters June 21st, 2019!
