Spike Lee is one of the most prolific and well-regarded directors working today, with a superb filmography to boast off. While he has covered a lot of different genres over the course of his 40-year career, he tends to stick to more grounded, dramatic fare, so it's hardly surprising that he's never helmed a superhero movie.
That doesn't mean he wouldn't consider it, though!
During an interview with EW, Lee was asked if we'd ever see him try his hand at a superhero film, even though "some of your directing brethren have dismissed Marvel movies as not legit filmmaking."
"I have nothing against Marvel," he replied. "I grew up reading Spider-Man comic books. To me, DC Comics was always corny... [Laughs] I'm just saying. I was all about Marvel. If the right opportunity comes across, I'm not campaigning for it, but I will give it consideration."
The closest Lee has come to the comic book genre was his re-adaptation of Japanese manga Oldboy, which was not very well received and one of his only notable flops. There was a rumor doing the rounds back in 2018 that he was attached to direct one of Sony's planned Spider-Man spinoffs, Nightwatch, but nothing ever came of it.
