Marvel’s President of Production Kevin Feige recently spoke to Empire magazine and gave a few updates Marvels upcoming projects including The Avengers and Thor.
On The Avengers: “Zak Penn is already on board The Avengers [as writer] and he’s spending a lot of his time looking into what we’re doing with Iron Man, Thor and Captain America, seeing how we’re tying it all together. And he’s beginning to outline the script now – he’ll be doing that over the summer.”
On Thor: “We will probably be having cast announcements in the next month or so on Thor. We’re looking to cast Loki and Odin soon, and the main female role. And we’ll also hopefully have lockdown shortly, gearing towards the beginning of production, which will be early next year. So I think there will be a lot of announcements between now and then.“
I think Thor has the biggest potential here, because its Kenneth Branagh directing, I’m still skeptical on The Avengers, it could easily wind up being a colossal mess.
Are you looking forward to the upcoming Marvel films?
