Comic books From 2008 to 2009, Randolph wrote for
Tokyopop's manga adaptations of the
Warcraft and
StarCraft video game franchises. In 2009, Randolph wrote
DC Comics'
Justice League Unlimited #41. She went on to write
Boom! Studios'
Muppet Peter Pan, which was a reinterpretation of
Peter Pan as a
Muppet story. In 2010 she wrote
Her-oes, a comic book mini-series about the teenage years of some of
Marvel Comics' most famous female
Avengers. In 2011 she wrote for
Archaia's
Fraggle Rock comic. In 2012, Randolph created and wrote the original comic book series
Supurbia, which was published by Boom! Studios.
Supurbia is a
Real Housewives interpretation of the superhero genre, which "explores the drama of superheroes' personal lives" within the context of a suburban lifestyle. It was initially intended to be a four-issue limited series, but its success led to a twelve-issue continuation. In November 2012, Randolph advocated that
Marvel Studios fire Gunn for offensive comments he made in 2009. In 2017, Randolph claimed that Gunn did not give
Thanos a large role in his
Guardians of the Galaxy films because he did not find the character interesting. Gunn denied her claim and later stated that Randolph "likes to just make up stuff I've said because it helps her get clicks." After Randolph claimed that the character
Bane would appear in Gunn's
Peacemaker series, Gunn said that the character "does not show up at the end or anywhere and has zero lines." After Randolph reported that audience reactions to
Peacemaker were "less than stellar"; Gunn responded that "Grace Randolph will spout bullshit." She has also written for Marvel Comics'
X-Men: Nation X. YouTube, television, and social media In 2008, Randolph created
Beyond the Trailer, a YouTube channel which discusses film and the film industry. In 2012,
Beyond the Trailer became a part of
Penske Media Corporation's digital network for a few years before leaving. From 2010 to 2011, Randolph was the host of Marvel Comics' weekly web news show,
The Watcher, before she was fired by Marvel. In 2011, in association with
Bleeding Cool, she created the YouTube channel
Think About the Ink. The videos explore comic books and the comic book industry, as well as TV adaptations of comic book properties. The channel's last video was uploaded in March 2015. From 2012 to 2013, she was associated with Movieline. In 2014 and 2015, she was an entertainment correspondent for
WTNH NEWS8, appearing on
Good Morning Connecticut. In September 2020, Randolph claimed in a
reaction video on
Beyond the Trailer that
The Mandalorian star
Pedro Pascal had quit halfway through filming the second season over being denied more screen time without the
title character's helmet on. Randolph further alleged that Pascal's behavior led to
Lucasfilm killing his character off and replacing him with
Boba Fett (played by
Temuera Morrison) for
the third season. When Pascal was asked about these reports in an interview with
The One Show, he categorically denied Randolph's claims, while Pascal's stunt double confirmed Pascal's involvement with the entire third season in an
Instagram post. Randolph refused to retract her story, arguing that the
post-credits scene from
The Mandalorian second season finale, which foreshadowed
The Book of Boba Fett, corroborated her claims.
Jon Favreau, the
showrunner of
The Mandalorian, later clarified that
The Book of Boba Fett was separate from the third season of
The Mandalorian. Randolph's handling of the Pascal story was criticized by journalists, who described her report as
clickbait and singled out her lack of reliable sources; they also asserted that her claims of Pascal being uncooperative on set could have potentially damaged his reputation and career. In June 2020, Randolph reported that the film
Birds of Prey underwent "massive
reshoots" to take out an alleged
dick pic storyline that contained elements of
pedophilia. Director
Cathy Yan vehemently denied the allegation while downplaying the severity of the reshoots, criticizing Randolph for her lack of research. Randolph defended her report, leading to an exchange between the two on
Twitter with Yan questioning Randolph's credibility as a journalist.
Film In 2019, Randolph appeared as a zombie for 3 seconds in a post-credits scene in the film
Zombieland: Double Tap alongside actor
Bill Murray, who played a fictionalized version of himself. == References ==
