To me My X-men - The MCU Director Thread

[Scarlet Spider]

Let's be honest, it's not going to be a name. Probably someone who's already worked with them.

I know it’s a cliche to always suggest the “it” thing but what about One Piece’s Steven maeda for a director?

- he obviously loves geeky stuff
- he’s great with promoting a diverse cast
- he knows how to world build and marvel love their tv talent
- he knows how to do the small character driven moments as much as the big epic action set pieces

 

[Sithborg]

He's not a director, though. He's a writer/producer. Were you happy with Kinsberg getting an X-film as his first directing gig?

 

[Silvermoth]

I mean that’s comparing apples with oranges but I think he deserves a shot. Lots of directors start as producers

Is it? It is no different than Kurtzman or Kinberg or I'm sure a bunch of others whose names have drifted off. He hasn't even directed an episode of his own show. And yet, you want to give him his first shot at directing on a big budget blockbuster? It makes no sense.

Alfonso Cauron would be my pick. Though obviously won't happen. I picked him because Prisoner of Azkaban is one of the best Harry Potter films. Gravity also had some amazing visuals.

Ah well that’s one name down I guess

It gives you a great indication of what kind of director Fiege is looking for.

Jeff Sneider mentioned this in his live stream yesterday. He also said a few weeks ago that Marvel would likely get a big-time director.

How about Ava DuVernay? Feige was interested in her for Black Panther and this could be her key out of director jail.

I'm sure many black women are lining up after how they treated Nia DaCosta.
