Rachel McAdams

Our look back at the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe reconsiders the debut of Marvel’s Sorcerer Supreme.

It’s one of the biggest cliches of romantic comedies that never happens in real life. So why are they so popular?

Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams share a forbidden love in the first trailer for romance drama ‘Disobedience.’

That insane cast is worth the price of admission alone.

Their screenplay work on Spider-Man: Homecoming may have been wonderful, but John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein don’t have the most impressive track record when it comes to directing comedies. (See: Vacation, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone.) However — and that’s a big however — the trailer for their latest movie, Game Night, looks like it just might be a total blast.

You won’t believe how steamy Rachel McAdams and Rachel Weisz’s sex scene is in the Orthodox Jewish drama ‘Disobedience.’

That headline may sound like the sort of fake movie that characters would make fun of in another, better movie, but it is most certainly real. Rachel McAdams and Jason Bateman are teaming up for Game Night, a new film from Vacation filmmaking duo (and Spider-Man: Homecoming scribes) John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein. Though the title implies a fairly basic comedy setup, this one comes with a twist — well, two twists, really, since this also happens to be a Rachel McAdams movie in which she doesn’t fall in love with a time-traveler, for once.

The most common knock against Marvel’s cinematic universe: All their movies look the same. In a mega-franchise spanning 14 films and counting, that look can get pretty stale. For the most part, these movies about bravery are pretty timid when it comes to visual storytelling.

We’re just a couple of weeks away from the release of Doctor Strange, which adds a new, mystical layer to the Marvel Cinematic Universe with all sorts of wild concepts like transcending astral planes and traveling between dimensions. It’s a lot to take in, especially for the titular character, an arrogant surgeon who — as you can see in these new clips — has a tendency to be quite stubborn.

Marvel’s upcoming Doctor Strange has an incredibly stacked cast, from Benedict Cumberbatch in the lead role to recognizable names and faces like Tilda Swinton, Mads Mikkelsen, and Chiwetel Ejiofor also starring. In case you forgot, Rachel McAdams, yes that Rachel McAdams, is also in the movie in a supporting role. She’s been in a poster and a few seconds of a trailer, and that’s just about it, but that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating about what her role actually is. Most of the consensus is that she’s Night Nurse, or a version of Night Nurse, a character in the comics who’s a very important part of the Doctor Strange: The Oath series. McAdams appears in scrubs and is said to be a surgeon at the hospital Strange works at, so it’s not too much of a stretch. Marvel has been characteristically cagey about who Rachel McAdams is playing, but today they’re saying fans shouldn’t get their Night Nurse hopes up.
