Joe and Anthony Russo, the administrators who helmed a number of massive Marvel films over time together with Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, appear to have no drawback leaping over to DC Studios to direct a DC movie underneath the brand new management of James Gunn and Peter Safran.
During a latest interview with CB, once they had been requested about the opportunity of directing a DC film, Joe Russo responded, saying:
“James over there running it, it’d be a no-brainer. We love him to death, we love the direction he’s going to take that world in. You know he’s going to be inventive with it.”
The filmmakers additionally shared that Batman was their all-time favourite DC character, and admitted that was an “obvious answer.” There is a new Batman film in improvement titled The Brave and the Bold, however as of proper now, no director is hooked up to the movie, so they may really direct a Batman film in the event that they throw their hat into the ring. If they don’t do a Batman film, although, there are many different characters for them to play with in the event that they ever did direct a DC film.
When beforehand speaking about The Brave and the Bold, Gunn shared that it could introduce Damian Wayne as Robin, “who is a little son of a bitch, assassin murderer, who he unwittingly takes on, who’s Batman’s actual son that he doesn’t know exists for the first eight to 10 years of his life, and he brings into his life and this is a story. It’s a very strange sort of father son story about the two of them. And it’s based on Grant Morrison’s run on the Batman. There’s a couple of comic book writers that have been exceptionally influential on our stuff and Grant Morrison and Tom King are probably the two primary ones.”
The Russos have been doing their very own factor since Endgame and have been making big-budget films for Netflix. The are additionally at the moment producing a live-action Hercules film for Disney. I don’t know if they’ll ever come again to play within the Marvel sandbox once more after Endgame. They’ve spent a lot of time enjoying with Marvel, and it looks as if leaping over the DC could be extra interesting for them as a result of it’s a totally different superhero sandbox to play in.
If the Russos ever did come over to DC, what characters would you wish to see them play with in a film?
