What?!!!

Doomsday was awesome.

Female led superhero movies
 

That movie was so bad!

And I love the post-apocalyptic genre. I wanted to like it, but couldn't..

They'll be great. Man or Woman, if the movie is great the movie will be great. I've never seen a female led movie be great and people say," if a man was the lead, it would've been so amazing." There's not a lot of Female led comic movies, but in this day and age that'll fix itself pretty quickly. I'm looking forward to Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel.

They probably don't even know the difference.

Oh, I'm sure they know the difference. Whether that knowledge is theoretical or experience-based is another question.

Buffy, Tomb Raider, kill bill, hunger games for just action movies off the top of my head. Probably way more if you include popular tv series.

And I think WW will flop, no trust in DC or who they chose.

Marvel stands a better chance with Captain Marvel.

Why can't Marvel get her? Did she sign a contract with Sony stating that? They did fine with Chris Evans.

I agree on Scarlett and Black Widow movie, I do not think the character is strong enough. That and it would have to be a Bourne type movie, not a superhero movie. Now if they added Hawkeye and maybe another non superhero it would probably be enough.

Meh. Some of the movies mentioned here i don't think of as Superhero movies.

Resident Evil, Kill Bill, Tomb Raider. Those aren't really Superhero movies, they're action movies with a female lead.

A Female Superhero movie is something like Catwoman.

No thanks.

I think that 2017 is highly ambitious. Unless they have a script (which I doubt), they'll need a script, director and star. It'll take a year to shoot and a year in Post, not to mention marketing and finding the appropriate release date.

Marvel's had a solid run lately but they initially stumbled out of the blocks with the two mediocre Hulk movies and recently, there have been a ton of issues with the Ant Man film that's been in development since 2008.

Iron Man 2 was unwatchable to me and the first Captain America was a disappointment. They'll need to be really careful with a Captain Marvel film, as she's not a known character outside of comic fans.

Jennifer Lawrence is under contract with Fox to play Raven/Mystique for several more films. The Marvel/Sony deal is separate from the Marvel/Disney deal and the Marvel/Fox deal.

Sony has been softening their stance lately in terms of an Avengers/Spiderman crossover and it would be beyond awkward to have one actress play two super heroes in the same universe.

Between Katniss and Raven/Mistique, she wouldn't have time in her schedule, anyway.

Sony is Spider-Man, X-Men (and Fantastic Four) are at Fox. At this point there is zero chance of Fox and Marvel working something out for an Avenger/X-Men crossover.

Jennifer Lawrence signed a 3-picture deal for X-Men First Class. The upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse is the last film she's contractually obligated to do.

I'd agree it's unlikely that they'd get her to play Captain Marvel, but for a different reasons. For one thing she'll probably be reluctant to sign a multi-picture deal again so soon after X-Men, but the main thing is Marvel won't want to pay her.

I vote Natalie Dormer.

2017 is wonder woman. I would not be surprised to see that date pushed back, or to see the entire dc slate delayed.

Captain Marvel is 2018 and comes after both guardians 2 and avengers 3.0. Would not be surprised to see her introduced in one and expanded in the other, as they did with black widow in iron man 2, avengers and winter soldier.

Yeah, that seems to be their M.O., for sure. The choice of director for Captain Marvel will be interesting as well, since so many of their better directors are tied up with sequels while others, like Rian Johnson and Gareth Edwards, are locked into the Star Wars galaxy.

There's an imminent announcement about another Star Wars spin off due any day now.
