Based on the most recent plot leaks. Bleeding Cool got their hands on a copy of the character biographies being used in open casting calls so let the rampant speculation begin!

Thomas: has grown up without a father's influence. Without the model of being a man, he doesn't have the strongest sense of himself. Despite this he smart, capable and shows courage when it is needed. He can appreciate the absurdities in life and understands you can't take life too seriously.

Young Lando Calrissian

Young Lando Calrissian

Assuming JJ Abrams chooses to tweak over thirty years of expanded universe lore instead of throwing it out the airlock, Lando's personality lends itself to a childhood without a father. By the time he reached Cloud City, Calrissian had rewritten his own history so frequently even the Empire couldn't fully separate fact from fiction. His take on life is very blasé but he's shown courage if the occasion calls for it.

Everything You Need To Know About The Post-Credits Scene In "Thor: The Dark World"

Who was that guy? SPOILERS AHEAD!

Marvel Studios

Marvel Studios has a storied history of capping off the credits to their movies with scenes that tantalizingly tease what's coming up in their next movies, and the post-credits scene at the end of Thor: The Dark World just may be the strangest — and most important — one yet. (Warning: The rest of this post contains SPOILERS, not just for Thor: The Dark World, but for Guardians of the Galaxy, and possibly even Avengers 3!)

In the scene, Asgardian warriors Sif (Jaimie Alexander) and Volstagg (Ray Stevenson) deliver what appears to be a small box that emits a red glow to a man with a white shock of hair who calls himself the Collector, and is played with eccentric flair by Benicio Del Toro. The box appears to contain what's left of the Aether, the universe-darkening MacGuffin that so vexed Thor throughout the preceding film. But Sif and Volstagg call it an "infinity stone" instead, and when they leave, the Collector says ominously, "One down, five to go." (There's a second scene that came at the very end of the Thor: The Dark World credits, but that mostly involved Thor and Jane Foster kissing. No mystery there!)

We already know that Del Toro will play the Collector in next summer's Guardians of the Galaxy — featuring the strangest comic book movie cast ever. But maybe we should start with the obvious question first:

So who is the Collector, anyway?

So who is the Collector, anyway?

Marvel Comics

His name is Taneleer Tivan, and he is one of 13 Elders of the Universe. Each Elder is the last of their respective species, all originating from ancient races that populated the galaxy in its infancy after the Big Bang and each having achieved immortality via various means. Because the universe really loves to elevate bipedal humanoids to sentient status.

Evil isn’t born, it’s made.

From the press release:

From Disney comes "Maleficent"—the untold story of Disney's most iconic villain from the 1959 classic "Sleeping Beauty." A beautiful, pure-hearted young woman, Maleficent has an idyllic life growing up in a peaceable forest kingdom, until one day when an invading army threatens the harmony of the land. Maleficent rises to be the land's fiercest protector, but she ultimately suffers a ruthless betrayal—an act that begins to turn her pure heart to stone. Bent on revenge, Maleficent faces an epic battle with the invading king's successor and, as a result, places a curse upon his newborn infant Aurora. As the child grows, Maleficent realizes that Aurora holds the key to peace in the kingdom—and perhaps to Maleficent's true happiness as well.

According to TwoBiteBrownie, the family moved into a house about a year ago. The previous owners built the house in the early part of the 2000s, and moved to India two years ago. The picture below is of a bedroom in the house.
