Last week with all the brouhaha involving the X-Men 3 script review I thought that it would be good idea to talk to Avi Arad and have him shed some light on a few Marvel projects that are coming down the pipeline including the Mutants.
Then I thought about it, how dificult is it going to be to talk to the President of Marvel one week prior to the release of Fan Four and about 30 days before shooting X-Men 3? I wasn't going to hold my breath. I thought that with any luck I might run into him at the premiere of Fantastic Four in New York or maybe a phone interview. But nonetheless I still made a few phone calls and requested a 10 minute interview. To my surprise I got a response from Marvel and they were kind enough to schedule a 40 minute video interview at the L.A. Marvel office.
The L.A. office of Marvel is exactly what I expected, geek heaven. Spiderman, Hulk, The X-Men and all things Marvel are on display including some jazzy Ghost Rider set pictures and miniatures that I can't say a damn thing about it except that it was amazingly cool stuff.
So after a few minutes of setting up our video and lighting equipment inside a meeting room we had Avi join us for a discussion about the onslaught of projects that Marvel is currently developing.
One of the things that Avi did let us know is that there will be casting news on Angel and Kitty Pryde within ten days.
So grab something to eat and get ready for 40 minutes worth of info on all things Marvel.
