The Marvels, the 33rd movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and just the fourth to be directed by a woman, is scheduled to hit theatres in November. Nia DaCosta, the MCU’s youngest director, recently talked about her experience directing The Marvels. In a recent interview, DaCosta stated that she would have to take a back seat as director because the movie mostly follows Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige’s vision. “Kevin Feige produced The Marvels; it is his film. I believe that you are aware of that fact, but I attempted to approach the situation with the understanding that some of you would be forced to take a back seat, DaCosta said. She also said that she had some early reservations about working with Feige and had sought guidance from former Marvel filmmakers including Chloé Zhao, Taika Waititi, Destin Daniel Cretton, and James Gunn. She jokingly revealed how she even questioned if Feige would be an impediment to her creative process before beginning the job. Are they going to murder me and obliterate my soul, she pondered. Is Kevin Feige an evil person?
Fortunately, DaCosta heard encouraging remarks from her colleagues in the field, who emphasised Feige’s sincere familiarity with the Marvel world. The woman remembered, “And they were like, ‘No, he’s just a good guy who was a nerd.'” Not all worries, however, subsided at that moment, as DaCosta admitted to occasionally feeling overburdened and anxious while battling with the difficulties of the production process. It was originally reported that the filmmaker had said, “I think superhero fatigue absolutely exists.” The filmmaker faced some particularly difficult situations in some instances, particularly when actors had to work with a variety of CGI objects that would later be improved by visual effects. “Occasionally, while watching a scene, you might be wondering, ‘What the hell does any of this shit mean?'” Or an actor can appear to be gazing at some bizarre event taking on in space while actually gazing at a blue X. There were undoubtedly difficult days and times when you thought, “This isn’t working. Considering the phenomenal accomplishment of the first Captain Marvel movie, which brought in more than $1 billion globally, DaCosta is under a lot of pressure for The Marvels to succeed. The sequel is also coming out at a time when superhero films have been receiving poor reviews and doing poorly on the box office. DaCosta’s movie is not just a continuation of the Disney+ series Ms. Marvels, which stars Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel, but also a direct sequel to the Brie Larson-starring standalone feature.
