The veil finally lifted during the Marvel Studios panel at Hall H during San Diego Comic-Con 2017, however. With no director attached for years, Captain Marvel has remained a long-lasting mystery in the plot department - with the only information available being word from Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige that the film would be an origin story.

They broke out on the scene with 2006's Oscar-nominated Half Nelson (which Fleck directed and they both co-wrote), but since then they've worked on projects like It's Kind of a Funny Story starring Zach Galifianakis and Mississippi Grind with Ryan Reynolds and Ben Mendelsohn. That being said, their resume is impressive. Given that the filmmakers are primarily known for their work on independent features, it's hard to say exactly what it is about Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck that Marvel Studios felt made them a good fit for Captain Marvel.

Ultimately, however, it was decided that the movie would be the first blockbuster directed by filmmaking duo Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck. There were numerous reports about potential candidates for the job, including Angelina Jolie, Elizabeth Wood, Niki Caro, Jennifer Kent, and Rachel Talalay. This gave audiences the first hint of Carol Danvers' existence in the MCU, leaving Captain Marvel to officially introduce her to us, and almost two months after that, she'll return for Avengers: Endgame to aid the surviving heroes in fixing what the Mad Titan wrought.Īs far as time between project announcement and director selection goes, Captain Marvel basically set a record for Marvel Studios - but the hunt did eventually come to a conclusion in April 2017. Why is this significant for Captain Marvel? At the end of Avengers: Infinity War, Nick Fury (we'll talk more about him later) activated a spruced-up pager that displayed the Captain Marvel insignia right before he was turned to dust by the Thanos snap.

What makes the placement more interesting is where it lands within the slate - specifically between Avengers: Infinity War on Apand Avengers: Endgame on April 26, 2019. This is a bit odd for the comic book movie studio, as they've never put a feature in March before. While the film was originally announced for release on July 6, 2018, project additions (and the introduction of Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe) led to schedule changes that wound up with the blockbuster having its current Madate. I think that this book might be good for kids ages ten through fourteen who love Marvel and superheroes and need to read everything about the MCU.As far as Marvel Studio's Phase Three slate goes, Captain Marvel sits in an interesting position. This book was too boring and it did not have enough action to keep the reader engaged. I think that this book was trying to get a boost off the Captain Marvel movie too but that connection didn’t help. I think the author could have improved the way that the character developed throughout the story. I disliked the storyline and the plot was not well thought out and not well written. She does make a friend that is a would-be pilot.Ĭaptain Marvel, Higher.

But she doesn’t underneath all of the things that she shows on the outside doesn’t match the fact that she is afraid of never being good enough. She might be dissuaded by the fact that in the USAF at that time, female aviators don’t exist. It turns out not to be that simple, as she has never followed the rules, and all she’s ever wanted to do is to fly planes. When Carol Danvers first arrives at the United States Air Force Academy, she is told to let herself learn.
