Not really, no. Carol Danvers is only one of the many individuals who have taken the mantle of Captain Marvel.

You say that as if you know 100% for a fact they won't - when you really don't know jack poo poo. Stop being a smartass.

At this point, it's all speculation - nothing should be treated as fact, including any bogus statements you say.

I like that instead of trying to come up with a counter argument, you instead make fun of me. When you're ready to have a discussion like an adult, we'll talk.

The likelihood that they'll do a film on any of the Captain Marvels is totally up in the air - nobody knows except for the people at Marvel Studios. Carol Danvers has one of the more compelling stories of the group (and brings diversity to the MCU), but that doesn't mean the others are completely out of the picture until said otherwise.

And while you're technically correct, the chances of, say, a Mar-Vell movie are vastly smaller than a Carol Danvers one.

(Though, yes, someone attacking you is totally unnecessary.)

Unless a movie is being actively worked on you should always take its ongoing existence with a grain of salt. Especially something like Shazam where there's an actor with a vague role and that's about it. Especially especially with Dwayne Johnson who is an extremely busy actor and isn't going to sit around on a role with no forward momentum.

I 100% agree. Mar-Vell's story is a bit convoluted and not as compelling as Carol Danvers, that's for sure. As I said eariler too, it helps diversify the MCU, which is primarily men.

Dwayne seems committed to Shazam in the way Ryan Reynolds was committed to making Deadpool happen. Obviously a lot of that is internet sources and such, but the Rock seems genuine in trying to make it happen.

Would be really cool and I hope it does.

I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.
I know it's been said before but I think Tatum should play Shazam, he would be great as a 12 year old stuck in a superhero's body.

With the ways studios work regarding their franchises its honestly not really that much up in the air. They simply aren't going to have multiple Captain Marvels, its just not something they will do. They've hitched the wagon to Carol Danvers, at the very best you get a throwaway joke or cameo for any of the others.

Edit: Unless you think they haven't chosen who they are doing for the Captain Marvel movie, which it kinda seems like you think that from your posts. But they have, its Carol.

I think the Shazam movie is one of the ones that is announced for like 2019 or so. A lot of plans can change in three years, so who knows if it'll happen or not. The entire DCCU could collapse as a failed experiment if the Justice League movie tanks.

I agree with you - multiple Captain Marvels would most likely confuse the hell out of the regular movie-going audience. It's bad enough that we've had at least three different actors playing Spider-Man at this point.

The point I was trying to make was that there's been multiple individuals with the Captain Marvel moniker, so Aphrodite saying that "Captain Marvel is female" is a false statement. If he had provided a sound argument like you did instead of saying "They're not making a movie about any of the others. Ever.", I wouldn't have gotten as annoyed as I did. His responses are super childish and it rubbed me the wrong way.

Feige already said she will have an all new origin. Also AoS already ruined the Kree so they probably want to distance themselves from that now.

Multiple Spider-Man actors wouldn't be so bad if they didn't keep doing the origin and Goblins. James Bond has had multiple actors and people don't get confused.

It's one of those rather underrated pulpy ones. Like, nothing earthshattering hitting heights never before seen, just a fun and rather stylish looking movie. See also The Rocketeer or The Shadow.

Or maybe I'm just a sucker for that 20s-40s aesthetic.

I think the Shadow is the best one of these, as it actually has a pretty playful script, great acting, and some balls out concepts.

It would be kind of funny if they got like a James Gunn type who made a movie about this energetic good-hearted kid who turns into a dark brooding murderous Zack Snyder protagonist when he says Shazam.

"Go on until you're stopped."
Shazam would be a really good opportunity for a fun, smart movie about how bright, cheerful, optimistic, whimsical things aren't necessarily less "mature" than dark, cynical, gritty things, and in fact the opposite is often true.

Which is why DC will never do one.
