It's all getting a bit too exciting with all these female led & female directed super hero movies.Earlier this week it was announced that Wonder Womans director Michelle Maclaren was to be replaced due to "differences" -whatever that means. Last night it was revealed that she would be replaced with Patty Jenkins! So pretty pleased that they are sticking with a female director. I have no idea what Jolie would do with Captain Marvel but it will be very interesting to see how it all developes.
Marvel hired a pair of high-profile female screenwriters, Guardians of the Galaxy’s Nicole Perlman and Inside Out’s Meg LeFauve, to oversee the new film earlier this week. If she signs on, Captain Marvel would likely be Jolie’s fourth movie behind the cameras after 2011’s In the Land of Blood and Honey, recent second world war drama Unbroken and upcoming intimate romantic drama By the Sea. Collider suggests Captain Marvel could replace Africa, a proposed biopic of the real-life fossil hunter turned protector of elephants Richard Leakey, on the Oscar-winning actor’s film-making slate. The latter movie, which was due to star Jolie’s husband Brad Pitt, is reportedly facing financing problems.
