Rumored "A-Force" Movie In The Works At Marvel


There's a new rumor going around that Marvel is developing an "A-Force" movie that will be an all female team which will include Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), the new Thor (played by Natalie Portman), Miss America (being introduced by America Chavez) Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) and She-Hulk (who hasn't been cast yet).

The idea of an all-female Avengers team has been something that's been talked about for a while now.  Last year Thompson had this to say about it:

"I'm not Marvel, so I can't make this happen, but I can tell you that Marvel is hugely collaborative, I think even our Thor (Ragnarok) movie was basically the product of conversations they had with Chris (Hemsworth) and with Mark (Ruffalo)about what they wanted to do next.  I think (Marvel Boss)Kevin Feige is really excited by the idea, and if you look at what's happened already in Phase 4 with me and Valkyrie and our story, and then in Black Panther the women rule supreme."

Speaking of Kevin Feige, he had this to say on the topic:

"It is an embarrassment of riches.  Even watching the audience at the Black Panther premier respond to Lupita, Letitia, and certainly Danai in their action sequences...you watch Danai spinning around in that casino, taking out dozens of people, and you go, 'Of course you can make a whole movie about that!"

He added:

"It's all about figuring out when and how.  But by the way, manu of them have already filmed additional scenes in upcoming movies, so some of that is gonna come sooner rather than later.  All of them will be seen again."

Evangeline Lilly from the Ant-Man and Wasp franchise already has an idea about who the leader should be:

"Well, it seems only natural Captain Marvel would lead because she is a general?  And she's the captain.  And Captain America leads the other Avengers, right, so maybe Captain Marvel would lead."

Brie Larson seems to agree:

"I'm not scared and I don't know what the future holds either.  I'm not let into those top-secret meetings, so we'll have to see. We'll see what happens. I love all the female characters so much.  So of course like that's what I'm interested in.  I'm super into an all-female Avengers movie.  Yeah, I think that would just be, it would just be cool to see all of them interact together."

This idea is a good one, but like Feige pointed out, they have to figure when and how.  If they don't do it right, it will just feel like pandering to the masses to show that they have diversity, like it did during the final battle in Avengers: Endgame.
