CAPTAIN MARVEL Sequel Officially in the Works with WandaVision Megan McDonnell Scribe

A sequel to Marvel's billion-dollar-grossing Captain Marvel is officially in the works. The company has tapped rising scribe Megan McDonnell, a staff writer on the Marvel-based series WandaVision, to pen a script for a follow-up to the 2019 pic that starred Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson. McDonnell is in final negotiations to seal her deal.

Sources say that Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, who co-wrote and directed the initial film hit, will not return to helm the sequel but are in talks to remain in the Marvel Universe and direct a possible Disney+ series. Marvel is hoping to find a female filmmaker for Captain Marvel 2 and is eyeing a potential 2022 release.

Details of any high-flying take were not revealed, but the new story will move the setting from the 1990s of the original movie to the present day. Marvel had no comment.

Captain Marvel had several writers on it, including Nicole Perlman, Meg LeFauve and Geneva Robertson-Dworet as well as Boden and Fleck.

Larson played Carol Danvers, a human who becomes involved in the war between two alien races, the Kree and shape-shifting Skrulls. Surviving an explosion tied to an alien engine imbued her with incredible power, making her one of the most powerful heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, something she proved during her subsequent appearance in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame.

Marvel has been mostly mum on Captain Marvel 2. The Disney division’s head Kevin Feige did tease it at San Diego Comic-Con in July during the company’s Hall H panel, when at the very end of the session he blurted out, "We didn't even mention that we're making Black Panther 2 and we didn't mention that Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is coming. We didn't even have time to talk about Captain Marvel 2, by the way. I didn't even have time to talk about The Fantastic Four. And there's no time left to talk about mutants."

Captain Marvel was Marvel’s first female-centric movie and proved to be an overperformer at the box office, generating over $1.1 billion worldwide.

McDonnell is a relatively new writer, with WandaVision her first major credit. The upcoming show is a spinoff that will air on Disney+ and brings back Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany as Avengers heroes Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch, and the Vision, respectively. The project, currently in production, also brings back the Captain Marvel kid character of Monica Rambeau, now an adult. In comics lore, Rambeau was an iteration of Captain Marvel. McDonnell began the show as a staff writer and then was promoted to story editor.

Didn't watch CM, will give the sequel a pass too.
 
The first CM was freaking great. Can't wait for the sequel. I had no idea who CM was as a kid and this was just a great surprise. There has never been a better time to be a Marvel fan.
 
The first one sucked, as did that other movie where she comes in at the end to save the day.
The fact that Brie is somewhat hot is the only redeeming factor so I shall only watch this one if it features her strutting/flying around in a skin tight spandex suit.
But in fact I would still rather watch a porn parody of it.
 
The first one was good. The Skrull stuff feels fresh still and I enjoy where they’re going with it. Oddly, she’s probably the weakest part of the series. The surrounding stuff is all pretty neat, with the Kree and so on.
 
I didn't see the first one. I'm on a break from Marvel. Nothing personal, but I want my GOTG3 which I pray finishes the Infinity War arc in a way I like better than Endgame.. Which it should so they can capitalize off that again.. But I'm pretty much done. Well, if 'Love and Thunder is 95% on RT or something I might give that a go.

It was decent but I think handicapped by the lead role being such an obvious mary sue, could have been much better if they'd played up the idea she had to overcome genuine hatred of the skrull rather than just "oh I was tricked you guys are ok now".

It also I suspect benefited massively at the box office by pushing the idea it was linked into the Infinity War plot somehow.
 
Ez pass, last one was all over the place with shit tier acting (apart from SLJ).

I’d watch the hell out of a Nick Fury movie though

Why does a Rotten Tomatoes score matter? RT is absolute shit

First movie was so so nothing too bad.

Kinda forgettable but if you find yourself watching it (random TV / streaming) you will be like eh okay I guess.

What disappointed me is how bland Brie Larson performance was, she was like sleep walking through the movie. I saw her in other stuff she is talented and has charisma so no idea why she came off like that.

Also...

First one was decent, I think being sandwiched between infinity war and endgame and she playing a role in the later helped the box office.
 
90s nostalgia is a good half of what the original had going for it
 
Why the sequel? Women have been ticked off now.
We need a wheelchair bound gay next.
 
I actually fell asleep in the theater watching this film and I only watched it on a 5 dollar Tuesday because nothing else was on.
 
First one served its purpose. Not really much more than that. It had some cool moments. Wouldn't be a bad movie to introduce the concept of Galactus.
 
Firat one was okay.
I wasnt a fan of the writing and directing, so the change is welcome.
Hopefully they give Brie something to work with.
