Vin Diesel already has a celebrated place in Marvel’s cinematic universe thanks to his role as the voice of sentient tree Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy, but the Fast & Furious actor may have another — possibly on-screen — role in the works if some recent hints he dropped pan out.

Back in August, Diesel teased a potential connection to the upcoming Inhumans movie that’s scheduled to hit theaters in 2018, and now the actor is being a bit more overt with his suggestions that a role in the film could be in the works. Known for teasing his upcoming roles, Diesel posted an image to Facebook of himself wearing a shirt featuring the Inhumans movie logo, standing in front of text asking “Are You Inhuman?”

While the “Are You Inhuman?” tagline comes from a Marvel Comics miniseries,  the logo on his shirt is the same one that debuted when Marvel Studios announced the Inhumans film.

The Inhumans were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, and made their debut in a 1965 issue of Fantastic Four. The rulers of a civilization that willingly subjects themselves to powerful mutating agents in order to gain superhuman abilities, The Inhumans are led by the noble Black Bolt — a role many are speculating Diesel is up for — whose voice is capable of unleashing a powerful, destructive energy.

Given that his Guardians of the Galaxy role only required Diesel’s voice and the role of Black Bolt would require him to maintain silence for much of the film, there’s certainly some reason to believe this dual-role scenario could work out.

The Inhumans is scheduled to hit theaters November 2, 2018.

3 Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend (April 26-28)
Luke Kirby and Michelle Williams in Take This Waltz.

As you've probably noticed, this is the last weekend of April. That means Hulu is about to lose some of its best movies before the new titles arrive May 1. And while we've already shared five great movies leaving Hulu at the end of April, those aren't the only terrific titles going out the door.

That's why this week's picks for the three Hulu movies that you need to stream this weekend are off the beaten path from the films we've previously chosen for April. We've picked out a historical drama, a romantic dramedy, and a remix of a classic Charles Dickens story. But since these movies are only around until April 30, you should catch these flicks before they go off to some other streamer.

Like Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout show? Then watch three shows and movies starring Ella Purnell
Lucy enters a house in Fallout.

Fallout has proven to be one of the bigger hits in Amazon Prime Video's existence, and it's also one of the most anticipated shows the streaming service has to offer this year. The series, which is loosely adapted from the popular video game franchise, stars Ella Purnell as a newly invented character who has to set off on a quest that will take her to the surface of a postapocalyptic version of Earth.

If you watched Fallout and found yourself intrigued by Purnell, in particular, then you're in luck. She's still a relatively new face in Hollywood, but she's starred in a number of projects in recent years, many of which have required her to hide her British accent. These are three you should definitely check out if you're a big Purnell fan.
