We May Have Our Black Panther Director Brehs (Coogler finally confirmed!)

[Bryan Danielson]

That doesn't make sense, 3 marvel movies droping in the same year nah one of them will be push back either Panther or CM

All they gotta do is 2 in the summer and one in the fall

Good Black Panther runs a breh should read?

Christopher priest run is very well liked across the board. Would start there.

They could release one in late March-early April, release one in June or July, and release the third one in October.
No overlap and each movie gets its own time to shine.

Truth be told though.... I think in this time and era... theres nothing wrong with these movies really having like a 2-3 month overlap. I mean lets be real... We live in time where everything moves so fast, the bulk of business and peak time of releases is the 1st 2-3 weekends after that most movies become an after thought and we are looking for the next big thing.... it dont matter how great the movie is.

TDK was a VERY dope movie, but after like 11 weeks in the box office (yes it was making money and still being revered, it wasnt like cats made it as much of a priority as they did in the beginning)

F.Gary Gray is the latest rumor





Director F. Gary Gray is reportedly in contention to helm one of Marvel’s Phase 3 movies.

According to Variety, Marvel could be eyeing the Straight Outta Compton director for Black Panther. Gray did say he would “love to direct a superhero movie” in an interview in with BlackTree TVin August.

Gray remains in high demand as it was reported earlier today that he is a finalist to direct The Fast and the Furious 8.

This isn’t the first time Gray has been connected to a Marvel film. Back in 2012, was being considered to helm Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Marvel appeared to have settled on Ava Duvernay (Selma) to direct Black Panther, but she passed on the project due to “creative differences.” She later expanded on why she passed on the Marvel film, citing the “sheer commitment involved” as a factor.

Black Panther is due to open in July 2018.

It look's like they are going for any black director who has made the acclaimed "Black film" of the present moment.

In all fairness F. Gary Gray has a previous relationship with Marvel, as he was on the shortlist for Winter Soldier, and he DOES have a background in Action movies (The Italian Job, A Man Apart)


I was REALLY on board for Ava Duvarney but F. Gary could definitely do the material justice.


And I'm actually happy that they are going for a Black Director, as long as the name isn't Tyler Perry I think whoever they choose will do a good job

Beats having people say "who is that?"

I wonder if maybe Ava will reconsider now with the changes to Marvel Studios? Unless she did have problems with Kevin.

 

[Bigbigguy]

I would take him over Ava any day of the week

Probably not. I think that ship has sailed sadly

Gray surprised the hell outta me with SOC. If he gets the job, I ain't mad.

 

[Un-AmericanDreamer]

You know what would be cool? If they had an easter egg or reference to the og Blade in this movie.
