Deadpool/Wolvy Rumor (basically confirmed by solid source) for an appearance of:
Wesley Snipes reprising Blade--in more than just a cameo, too perhaps

……All of which might leave us wondering exactly why Marvel supremo Kevin Feige has just revealed that the new Fantastic Four film, in which Reed Richards, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing are about to debut for Marvel movies, will take place (at least initially) somewhere that does not appear to be in the MCU at all
. Speaking on the latest episode of the Official Marvel Podcast, Feige confirmed suggestions that the film will be set in the 1960s, but hinted heavily that this will be a very different version of 20th-century terrestrial reality to any we’ve yet seen.
“It is a period film,” said Feige. “There was another piece of art we released with Johnny Storm flying in the air, making the 4 symbol and there was a cityscape in the corner of the image. And there were a lot of smart people who noticed that the cityscape doesn’t look exactly like the New York that we know or the New York that existed in the ’60s in our world. Those were smart observations.”
This is nothing new for Marvel, in a sense. The advent of alternate realities in episodes such as Spider-Man: No Way Home and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, not to mention the TV series Loki, means we’re used to seeing our heroes jumping from one universe to the next.
Moreover, the absence of the Fantastic Four from the MCU would explain why nobody has ever mentioned them up until now. And yet if Feige really is hinting that the team will begin their journey in a different universe to the Earth 616 we’ve become used to, and which so closely resembles our own without the superheroes, this is still something new and different.
Rather than starting out in our own world, these are superheroes from another universe who are (presumably) likely at some stage to make the time and reality jump so that they can interact with the characters we already know.
That is after all, kind of the point of Marvel on the big screen, even to the extent that we now have superheroes who once existed in entirely different film series – Spider-Man and his various enemies in No Way Home; Deadpool and Wolverine in the forthcoming Shawn Levy film – happily fistbumping the MCU crew.
Of course, Marvel might just do something truly original here and keep the awesome foursome trapped in their own world, despite the fact that they have every means of bringing them into the big, multiversal picture.
Who wouldn’t want to explore a super-stylised, fantasy take on the 1960s where everything is slightly different from our own world, in appealingly far-out and intriguing ways? Maybe the Beatles are all Martians – who knows how weird this stuff could get?
But wouldn’t that, in a sense, be cheating, given how Marvel has spent all its time and effort since 2008’s Iron Man convincing us that everything is connected, to the extent that every other studio making superhero movies has become too embarrassed to do anything but mimic its more successful rival?……

Is Marvel breaking all its own rules with the new Fantastic Four movie?
The superheroes will be arriving in 60s New York in their MCU debut, but where they go next should lead to a multiversal mystery tour

There was a crew in Bogalusa this week filming a new Marvel Movie called "Grill Cheese" starring Michael B Jordan. Not familiar with that franchise.

That skyline looks like the 1960's as envisioned by people from the 1860's.

behind the title so it has to be legit.Correction - it is called Grilled Cheese. The little old ladies posting in a Facebook Group had the name wrong. Who would have guessed that?
Coverage from when they were filming on location in Donaldsville.

It's not a Marvel movie. It's Ryan Coogler's new project which very little is known about aside from it supposedly being some kind of period vampire movie.
Coogler and Jordan being involved probably made some people assume Marvel, bit It's not. It's Coogler's own thing.
