The cast list is not exhaustive. You're missing locations, items, vehicles, races/species, characters who either won't or don't have an announced cast member, or the context surrounding those characters. All of that information is useful to readers. And it's not speculative, either - that's why we have rules about verifiable sources. If you're concerned about characters that might not eventually make the final cut of the movie, their actors will still be listed in the cast list anyway. When information changes, we have editors who can update the page to accommodate the new information. That's kind of the point of a wiki.

And none of that addresses why you would remove the plot synopsis, too. Again, that information is important to readers.

Frankly, I always thought it was weird that pages for upcoming comics wouldn't even list who and what was on the cover. Movie articles didn't do that; video game articles didn't do that; TV series articles didn't do that. It was only comics pages that were so stingy about the information they gave readers. But that's how it was long before I got here, and I don't really edit the pages for comics anyway. So I never thought it was my place to make a fuss about it. I thought they would eventually join the rest of the site in telling readers things they might want to know. But this does involve me, and it makes a problem where there wasn't one before.
