Marvel fans have wondered who is going to replace William Hurt as General “Thunderbolt” Ross because he passed earlier this year. Well, it’s unofficial but it looks like Harrison Ford has been tapped to replace Hurt at the General. Several sources claim Ford will play Ross in “Captain America: New World Order”, and then “Thunderbolts”, where he oversees an anti-hero team sort of like the “Suicide Squad”. In the comics, Thunderbolt Ross becomes a character called Red Hulk . . . but there’s no word if that’s happening in the MCU.

Thomas Rhett and Katy Perry are announcing something, but what could it be? They posted a photo of their silhouettes with tomorrow’s date. They already have a duet together with “Where We Started”, so maybe it could be a music video. Or a brand new song.
