Morocco reportedly considered as filming location for next Spider-Man film
The upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film «Spider-Man: Brand New Day» will reportedly expand its filming locations to include Morocco, alongside the United Kingdom, where the production headquarters will be based. Insider Daniel Richtman reports that the film will adopt a more international approach, similar to «Spider-Man: Far From Home».
This development suggests that Peter Parker's story will once again extend beyond New York City, following his previous ventures to Washington, D.C., in «Homecoming» and across Europe in «Far From Home».
The Moroccan filming locations could provide exotic and visually distinctive settings, potentially revitalizing the franchise's visual style. This international expansion may also introduce new characters, cultures, and dynamics within a broader narrative context, possibly creating connections with other Marvel heroes.
«Spider-Man: Brand New Day» is currently in pre-production, with filming scheduled to begin in August. Tom Holland will reprise his role as Spider-Man, with rumors suggesting that Steven Yeun may portray the villain Mr. Negative.
While no official plot details have been revealed, these reports indicate an ambitious project designed to further expand Spider-Man's horizons in the MCU.

US investor strikes $1 billion merger to create bitcoin treasury company
By Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss BOSTON (Reuters) -U.S. investor and entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano announced on Monday the creation of a new bitcoin treasury company that would hold up to $1 billion of the world's largest cryptocurrency on its balance sheet. Pompliano said in a statement that his financial services firm ProCap BTC would merge with Columbus Circle Capital I, a special purpose acquisition company, to create ProCap Financial, a bitcoin treasury firm. Several public companies have employed bitcoin treasury strategies, which involves allocating a portion of their cash and reserves toward bitcoin, to replicate the success of software company Strategy, which began accumulating bitcoin in 2020 and now holds more than $63 billion worth of the digital token. The trend comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has sought to overhaul cryptocurrency policy, including calls to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve, after courting cash from the industry on the campaign trail. Pompliano, one of the biggest investors in the crypto space over the last several years, said ProCap BTC has raised $500 million in equity and $250 million in a convertible note, in what he termed the largest initial fundraising in history for a bitcoin treasury company. Unlike traditional bitcoin treasury companies, Pompliano said ProCap Financial would use its bitcoin balance sheet to generate revenue and profit through a variety of strategies, including lending, derivatives, and other products and services. He also said leading institutional investors Citadel, Susquehanna, Jane Street, and Magnetar have committed capital, as have crypto firms Off the Chain Capital, Pantera, Coinfund, Parafi, and FalconX. Reuters was unable to verify whether these companies were investing in ProCap Financial. "The legacy financial system is being disrupted by bitcoin right before our eyes," Pompliano said. "Our objective is to develop a platform that will not only acquire bitcoin for our balance sheet, but will also implement risk-mitigated solutions to generate sustainable revenue and profits from our bitcoin holdings."

Fern Britton remembers working with Phillip Schofield ‘with fondness'
Former This Morning presenter Fern Britton has said Phillip Schofield's departure from the show sparked 'a lot of mixed emotions', and described their years working together as 'mostly great fun'. Schofield resigned from ITV in 2023 after admitting to an 'unwise but not illegal' affair with a much younger male colleague on This Morning. Advertisement Britton, 67, presented the morning programme with Schofield for eight years before leaving in 2009. Phillip Schofield and Fern Britton during a Prince's Trust reception at Highgrove (PA) In an interview with Saga Magazine, Britton, speaking about Schofield stepping down from This Morning, said: 'It brought up a lot of mixed emotions. The years we worked together were mostly great fun and we were a very good partnership, which I can remember with fondness. 'I knew how much he loved his job and cared deeply for his public perception. It must have been a terribly difficult time for him and his family.' Britton also spoke about learning not to let others take advantage of her easy-going nature. Advertisement 'I think I understand myself a bit better now, and can look back and see that I foolishly handed power to partners, bosses and colleagues, because I'm very easy-going and I never used to see around the corner and think, 'Oh hang on, they're actually manipulating me',' she said. While Britton may be best known for her years on daytime television, she has also built a career as a novelist. Fern Britton and Phillip Schofield in 2004 (Ian West/PA) She has lived in Cornwall since splitting from TV chef Phil Vickery in 2020 after two decades of marriage. In her latest book, A Cornish Legacy, she draws on her life to explore themes of divorce, inheritance and the emotional weight of old houses. Advertisement Talking about whether she would be open to finding new love, she told the magazine: 'I'm not averse to it but they'd have to be bloody spectacular. They have to make me laugh, they must be kind, and they must be honest.' Britton said she is now a regular at church, and talked about it giving her the 'nicest feeling'. She said: 'It's so important to feel useful. I've started regularly going to church, and honestly just helping make the coffees and the sandwiches in the church hall gives me the nicest feeling I've had for a long time.'

Michael Palin: I feel less grief now
Sir Michael Palin has said he feels less grief now two years on from the death of his wife. The 82-year-old Monty Python star announced in May 2023 that his wife of 57 years, Helen Gibbins, had died after suffering from chronic pain and kidney failure. Advertisement The couple met on a beach in Suffolk when he was still a teenager. In an interview with Saga magazine, Palin said: 'I can see why people say it takes two years or so before your response gradually changes. 'It becomes less about loss and more about the spirit of that person being around, so that's very nice. 'I feel less grief now, and more that I've got to keep on doing things, looking after the children we made together. Advertisement 'I talk to myself as if she's there. I'll show some spectacular bit of incompetence that I know she would have found funny, then I'll hear myself saying something in the way she would have said it and I'll laugh, even though I'm the only one there. 'Imagining her being there makes me laugh.' Palin met his future wife while holidaying in the seaside town of Southwold, Suffolk, and later fictionalised the encounter in a 1987 TV drama for the BBC titled East Of Ipswich. The couple had three children and four grandchildren, and celebrated their wedding anniversary just two-and-a-half weeks before Ms Gibbins' death. Advertisement Palin told the magazine he has not had counselling or therapy. 'I know myself quite well. I'd like to work it out myself, if I can,' he said. Palin added: 'I get dark days, when you feel a bit down and wonder what you're going to do on a cold autumn Sunday on your own, but I factor that in. 'I know I'm going to feel her loss at certain times. The family have been my bereavement counsellors really. Advertisement 'Fortunately, the three children all live quite close. You might see pagodas, volcanoes and waterfalls all round the world, but what's really important is who comes round for dinner on a Sunday.' Speaking about whether he will find love again, Palin said: 'We were a unit for so long. You can never begin to replace a relationship which lasted 60 years. 'I'm OK living on my own, then I go off to Venezuela or somewhere. I'm not moping.'
