Marvel to announce new title on the View 11am EST
 
http://www.deadline.com/2014/07/marv...promo-synergy/


After last week’s tumult on ABC‘s lady chat show The View, the network’s parent co. Disney is changing the conversation – to comic books. Disney-owned Marvel teased today that they’ll announce “an all-new thundering title” Tuesday morning on The View, hosted by Whoopi Goldberg and the departing Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy. Marvel-watchers are speculating that the “explosive” project could be a new Thor spin-off film or TV show, female-driven given The View‘s XX chromosome-laden audience – actress Jaimie Alexander crossed over from the big screen to Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. earlier this season on the ABC show – but a source tells Deadline it may not be a film or TV “title” at all. Tune in with the fanboys tomorrow at 8 AM PT/11 AM ET for the big reveal.
Speculation is running rampant. Would they really announce a new comic book on the View? Speculation from announcing Carol Danvers movie to a SIF TV show on ABC, or even a SIF movie? (Since the word Thundering).

Guesses by Bleeding Cool:

Agent Carter. The View is a female-focused show, with Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy hosting. Agent Carter is the next Marvel show for ABC, and both companies are owned by Disney. Would this be a good time to announce the comic, with actress Hayley Atwell on hand as well?

Sam Wilson, The Falcon as the new Captain America. Such a story might be in black icon Whoopi Goldberg‘s wheelhouse, and is certainly something that national television might lap up… but is it too male? And is this a new book? And neither plays off the “thundering” PR headline.

New Angela series by Kieron Gillen and Marguerite Bennett. Female focused, female co-writer, who knows maybe even a female artist – and the “thunder” would tie in with her new status as sister of Thor. But… the character is hardly well known enough, unless they find a way to tie it more explicitly with the Thor brand. And I’d heard they were saving this for San Diego…

I can't fathom it being something that Earth shattering with Comic Con so close. Who the hell out of their target demo watch The View?

I think that is why so many of the guesses lean to the female persuasion.

It could just be Doctor Strange since it hasn't been "officially" announced yet. It's all been rumors and speculation.

Edit to add: Or, if it's going to market towards females, maybe they will announce the actress playing Jessica Jones in the Netflix Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Power Man deal.

That's weird.

So is anyone actually going to watch The View to find out?

Fuck no. It'll be posted online 5 seconds after it's announced on the show.

The View?! WTF?

Does Marvel not know their target audience, or are they just trying to see how many nerds tune in to that trash just to catch the announcement?

It might be interesting to watch the show and see the hosts feign knowledge and interest in the subject matter.

Why is this in the Movie section if they are only talking about a comic book?

Because we don't know if it was a comic book or not. Speculation is all over the board from TV Show/Movie/Comics.

Once the announcement is made, if the mods want to merge or move they can go ahead.

If it is a female led project of some sort it could be a good idea. The female market can be a good thing to get ahold of, moreso than the norm.

I do know they wanted an Agent Carter show... I just hope it's away from the hands of the SHIELD show makers. How mostly mediocre and cheap looking that season was. That show really didn't bring anything great to the table besides Bill Fuckin' Paxton. Cuz he's Bill Fuckin' Paxton.

Agent Carter has already been officially announced. It's going to be 8 episodes, and it will run during the mid-season break of Agents of SHIELD's second season.

Yeah, it's been announed but does the regular TV viewers of ABC know that?

Hrmmm. They can tie Thor into GOTG since both are a bit cosmic, and also Angela, Thor's sister is currently in the GOTG comics.

What does that matter? The press statement says its going to be an official announcement. Agent Carter has already been officially announced previously. They aren't going to do a second official announcement. That's just silly.

So according to people on Twitter it's a comic title featuring a female Thor. Nothing to see here in Movie Talk nerds.

Apparently it is supposed to be Thor's Sister:
