>Sitting down with Indiewire while promoting her new film Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Gillan spoke openly about how she and some of her female colleagues in Marvel Studios pitched the idea of an all-female movie:
>“Brie Larson was like, ‘We should go up to Kevin Feige and tell him to make an all-female Marvel movie,’ so we marched up there in a group, a whole herd of us, and said that to him. He was like, ‘Yeah, that would be amazing!’ but he didn’t really commit to it, but he thought it would be a great idea.”
>Gillan doubled down on the idea, saying that “now is the time, more than ever” for Marvel to try its hand at a female superhero ensemble adventure. She also cited the success of the Patty Jenkins directed and Gal Gadot led Wonder Woman, which smashed box office records around the world this past summer:
>“Look at the success of Wonder Woman. It’s clear that we all want that.”

Sebastian Wright
>all-female >Marvel movie without a hunky guy Can't wait to see how they figure this one out
Adrian Sullivan
There were all female team-ups constantly in the comics and I'd probably watch Gillan, Zoe and Scarlett in an action film together. If it had the Thor 3, wonky space adventure aesthetic, it could be kino.
Of course Sup Forums would cry about it though.
Jaxon Collins
They will have all met post-IW thoug tbf Although they have to come up with some reason to leave all the men (aka the most powerful ones) behind to tackle some foe together
Kayden Rogers
Black Widow Cold-War/late soviet era spy drama would work.
Joshua Robinson
>Black Widow in MCU since decade >SarJo in her gold >doesn't get a movie >random nigga jumps in latest films >gets movie What are you fucking saying? Try English next time.
Ethan Walker
Most all female teams in comics where complete shit, specially in Marvel. The only good one I can think of is when Misty Knight and Colleen Wing teamed up.
Gotham City Sirens and Birds of Prey however, were kino.
Ayden Bailey
>Wahhh they were complete shit Matter of opinion, point was that there is a precedent in comics so why OP thinks this is somehow a bizzare request is silly.
David Nelson
I doubt the Mouse is retarded enough to green light an all female cast after TLJ fucked up.
Alexander Diaz
That is the only way a Black Widow movie can really work/be interesting. Go back before the scale of everything got inflated. The problem with it is that it doesn't move the overall MCU storyline forward, unless it brings/hints at Red Skull coming back
Anthony Rogers
Are you foreign? Try thinking next time

The fuck does star wars have to do with it

Oh boy, a movie with all your favorite Marvel heroes' interchangeable action girl sidekicks together in one place for the first time.

Ryder Hill
That some Quasimodo looking shit
Nathaniel Perry
If they are all introduced to each other in IW, then the reasons don't really matter as much I guess, as to "why" they team up. You could do some half assed thing where they all are on earth post-Thanos or whatever

Andrew Rivera
I will indeed cry about it. Even if the movie is good. It's a matter of principle.
Nolan Reed
Honestly I wouldn't mind. What annoys me is when they insert a female character among men, and she is smarter and stronger than any other character.

Benjamin Hernandez
>He thinks poor English is a "quick tag" Also retard, Black Panther isn't some "random nigger" and has been leagues more popular than Black Widow in the comics. Widow just isn't super interesting on film, unless it is in a spy thriller, but how often can you rinse and repeat Winter Soldier? Black Panther has had a longer comic book run than Black Widow. Sorry that your obsessed with race. There are boards for that.

It's corporate feminism. It's a joke

Yes, please oversaturate the market with feminist flicks that will start bombing so we can all end this much sooner
Owen Nguyen

Nicholas Allen
>Nothing bad about it desu Pretending it's not about personal enrichment is what's bad about it. Of course she wants an all-female marvel movie. She'd get higher billing and way more money.
>a free market society for a film product? If people don't like it and it bombs is that the free market or is that sexism?
>Nice new buzzword you got there. >Terms I'm too dumb to understand are buzzwords.
James Cook
For people like you who complain any chance you get about "feminist" films, what happens when it ends? In your imagination, what exactly does that look like? No more women in film at all? If you're going to bitch and moan about films you don't even have to see, what is the alternative?
Carson Martinez
her one weakness is men asking for her number and raping her with their eyes
Chase Carter
The idea itself isn’t THAT bad. But Marvel/ Disney should run research on how the idea would perform on today’s audiences & how it should be done. They already have developed strategies after those Avengers’s film. But even THAT needed some times & efforts to reach where it’s at right this moment.
Nolan Moore
They won't even try it. Feige knows it's a stupid idea, he's just giving them what they want to hear There will be female led Marvel movies, but not a stupid team up that has no reason to exist except for the characters being female.
Gavin Carter
i m an IT guy, for me it's all about tags. sorry, my bad. i assumed that every member of modern socieity is able to understand meaning by reading just key words, looks like i was wrong. sorry again. thx, there is still hope
Leo Morgan
films being made with women, not films being made because there needs to be films made about women because IT'S 2017
Nathan Gutierrez
>If people don't like it and it bombs is that the free market or is that sexism? Yea, that's the free market. Nu-busters bombed, that rebooted franchise is dead. >Terms I'm too dumb to understand Lol sure, that's why I am making fun of you, you're just too le smarty for me ((((tips))).
Ethan Clark
> Implying comics popularity means shit for the MCU
The Iron Man movies saved Tony Stark as a comic character.
They could have easily made a Black Widow movie if there had been the will for it. The comic character is as old as Cap, so they could have made a cold war spy thriller with her, even throwing in a Nick Fury origin story on the side for good measure.
Luke Gomez
Jesus Christ. I don't who's are worse. Hers or Kristen Ritter's?
Adrian Jackson
>films being made with women So....now?
Nathan Morgan
At least Kristen's feet are clean
William Reyes
Just use proper goddamn English you dumb faggot. This isn't some crypto-blackhat forum or a discussion in Basic.
Jordan Foster
>he likes to pretend "female led films" are "feminist flicks" by default
Carson Bell
> Implying comics popularity means shit for the MCU It literally does when the point was "how popular is (A)?" Black Panther gets his own standalone first because he's always been more popular than Widow, even the buzz around his film is a good sign that there is a market there. I honestly can't see the same for Widow. She's kind of boring.
Kayden Morgan
>Lol sure, that's why I am making fun of you, you're just too le smarty for me ((((tips))). By focusing on the wordage rather than the meaning, yeah it makes you look like a dipshit. Corporations putting up this face of being so concerned with social justice is a joke man. It's a marketing ploy. "Drink Pepsi, it's the official soft drink of not hating black people"
Connor Rodriguez
Sounds like you're honestly just a nitpicky retard who cherrypicks what to get outraged at.
Ayden Gray
I don't get the people who actually enjoy these movies up until the point they do something like this. It's all pandering shit. All of it. I don't know what you've been watching.
Logan Ward
Seems more like corporations trying to profit off of social trends, which they do all the time but now since it's about women and minorities, now you're asspained.
Kevin Robinson
how do you even memes?

David Kelly
There is nothing more I'm looking forward to. Hope upcoming Avangers is TLJ-tier shitfest for MCU.
Nicholas Barnes
The problem is that marvel doesn't currently actually have any female characters that could carry a movie like wonder woman can. Solo or team movie.
So what? The green chick love interest with 10 total scenes in two movies from guardians teams up with the redheaded assassin space filler character with no actual personality from almost every phase one movie and also a chick from the latest and memeiest thor movie? Who gives a fuck?
Want me to be interested in a female lead? Get a character i care about. One of the xmens female cast or even Gwen Stacy if we're desperate. Someone who wouldn't make me go "who!?" When they announce the movie.
WW worked because she's a badass, has a great theme and consistently steals the scene. None of thosenbitches in Marvel's current lineup can claim that.
