RUMOR MILL: CAPTAIN MARVEL Directors Ryan Fleck And Anna Boden Could Helm MS. MARVEL For Disney+

Marvel Studios has zeroed in on a new director for Captain Marvel 2, but the filmmakers behind the first instalment may be lined up to take the helm of Ms. Marvel on Disney+ instead. Check it out...

Earlier this month, we learned that Marvel Studios has tapped Candyman director Nia DaCosta to take the helm of Captain Marvel 2. Now, Murphy's Multiverse has reported that the plan is for the sequel to be shot at Pinewoods Studios in the UK as well as other parts of Europe. 

Very little is known about what to expect from the sequel, though rumours continue to run rampant that it will somehow adapt the Secret Invasion storyline. There have even been rumblings of some sort of companion series, so we could be looking forward to an event that takes place across film and television (which would definitely be something new for Marvel Studios). 

Here's where things get really interesting, though; The DisInsider has added to that, noting that, "Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, who co-wrote and directed the first film are not returning for the sequel, but will stay in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as they are likely directing the Disney+  Ms. Marvel series."

This is obviously the first we've heard of that, though it does make sense. There's no reason to suspect they had a bad time working on Captain Marvel - it grossed over $1 billion worldwide - and Marvel Studios knows they can trust them with telling Kamala Khan's story in Ms. Marvel

How would you guys feel about Fleck and Boden taking charge of Ms. Marvel instead of Captain Marvel 2? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments section.

Seems a reasonable place for them to land, and I think that they could do well with the property.

@Chewtoy - Agreed. As much as I didnt LOVE Captain Marvel, I feel like this suits them.

I'm sure the rumor is BS, but please no, I was not overly found of how they handled Captain Marvel.

@patgreyc - they'll find a way to make her inspiration more "woke" than the comics.

The first Muslim/Pakistani representation in the forefront of one of these and they're gonna go and get the most boring choice humanly imaginable? Lame.

@tmp3 - lets face it. This is just gonna be there to tick the box of representation like captain marvel.

@Origame - Not really, she's an interesting character in her own right. All they have to do is get interesting creatives.

@tmp3 - im not denying that shes an interesting character (im actually looking forward to what the avengers game does with her) but considering these rumored directors, if true, shows this is just ticking a box.

@tmp3 - It's not even a stretch to think (should the rumor turns out to be true) that they were chosen for their connection to the Captain Marvel movie, and if it happens, I have no hope for Ms. Marvel.

@tmp3 - Exactly what I'm thinking. There's much better talent out there whom could do much better with the material than they could.

So what if they do a Thor related show are they going to get Alan Taylor, because yeah Captain Marvel was just as mediocre as Thor The Dark World

I mean they’re terrible directors and she’s a terrible character. So this makes sense if true.
patgreyc
patgreyc - 8/21/2020, 12:45 PM
@Oberlin4Prez - As a character, she's not bad, but they've had some awfully uninspired stories for her.

@patgreyc - I’ve just never been a fan of the fanboy/fangirl style superhero. Like it’s great to see younger heroes appreciate the legacy heroes, but it gets really annoying really fast. Like Peter in the MCU, it was cute he had a boner for Tony through like his first movie, but then it didn’t go away to the point where he was still whining about him in FFH. Idk. To each their own, that’s just how I’ve felt about that kind of character treatment.

@Oberlin4Prez - Fair enough, it does get a little tiring. Like I said the writing was uninspired, but the general concept has some potential. Maybe if they drop the enthusiasm level a little if/when they adapt it, it would make a big difference.
Oberlin4Prez
Oberlin4Prez - 8/21/2020, 2:11 PM
@patgreyc - it’s fine at the start, but I just hope the character has a chance to become her own character and isn’t defined by how far her head can be shoved up Captain Marvel’s ass.

Could have had a latino focused show if they hadn't canceled Ghost Rider.

If Marvel isnt going to do anything with him, now your chance DC, get him for Bane

Hated CM in theaters, liked it when I watched it with my wife, but after finishing Shooter, I have one question: why do Sam Jackson and Omar Epps even attempt running on them knees? And they hold their guns with their shoulders all hunched up like “MINE!” Did I digress? Uhh, Mindy Kaling for Kamala’ mom

“nice save, Cuban! NOT”

Can’t win em all
