The idea of a superhero movie with a lead female character is obviously something which has been discussed at Marvel as director and producer Louis D'Esposito has once again spoken out about the possibility of a character like Captain Marvel getting her own big screen outing. "There's obviously a drumbeat that is banging louder and louder that we want a female lead superhero. We have strong female characters in our films from Black Widow to Pepper Potts to Peggy Carter and you never know. Maybe there's an offshoot film with one of them. Or Captain Marvel, you know?" However, it sounds as if the studio already know which movies will be filling their 2016 slots and Captain Marvel won't be one of them! They also don't seem particularly keen on adding third film to their two a year routine. "It's hard because we have a small group at Marvel. We do two films a year. To get those two films done and to do them right takes a lot of work and manpower. And female-power, obviously. To add a third film and to just put it in the slate right now is difficult. We have these next three, four, five films coming out and that's what we're really concentrating on." What do you guys think? Sound off below!
"Captain Marvel is a very strong female character that would be great to do. I love it," Marvel co-president and Agent Carter director Louis D'Esposito told IGN when asked which female superheroes he would most like to see given their own big screen outing. As for what most appeals to him about the character, he added: "She's great and it's always great when they're set in a man's world and they overcome the obstacles in their way and really shine." At this point, there's been far too much Captain Marvel talk for her not to have been discussed at Marvel Studios. Don't be surprised if she ends up starring in one of their 2016 or 2017 features! Anyway, if you can forgive the fact that the interviewer is under the impression that Spider-Man is a DC character, it's well worth checking it out in full above! Sound off with your thoughts below.
