After the epic battle scene in Avengers: Endgame depicted the female superheroes uniting to protect Spider-Man from Thanos, Marvel fans started wondering if theyll ever see the women unite for a standalone movie. Captain Marvel star Brie Larson generated even more buzz when she told Variety that she and other female co-stars have approached Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige about getting the ball rolling.

Now, during a sit-down interview with Variety, Scarlett Johansson says she is also pushing for the movie, despite her character Black Widows demise in Endgame.

I dont know what my future is in that world. Obviously, its a little more opaque for my character, Johansson told Varietys Marc Malkin while promoting her new film Jojo Rabbit. But that group of actresses is so incredibly powerful and when they come together, its explosive and unstoppable. So yes, Im pushing for that. I think audiences want it and Im definitely one of them.

Feige has expressed interest in an all-female film, but has yet to confirm a green light on the project. Marvels first female-led film, Captain Marvel, grossed more than $1 billion worldwide.

I don't see a problem. DC is doing it. They could do it with Captain Marvel 2 or something else.

Edit: I still want BW to return in the post-Endgame future.

'DC is doing it' is a terrible reason, DC makes terrible movies more often than not and I don't think birds of prey is gonna change that

Maybe Im sexist.

But why is this a thing?

I dont see see anything resembling an all guys movie. Just make sure the women do stuff. Is that not sufficient?

Isnt this kinda like letting you win? Where the act itself actually undermines the message because it had to be forced to happen?

99.9% of all action movies ever made were all guys movies unless you want to count the damsel in distress

"All female" gimmick stuff isn't exactly new.

The Expendables

Ocean's 11

Ghostbusters

I think that's the inherent problem of "all guys" movies. They're not marketed as "all guys" movies. They're just movies.

I think Snyder and Whedon did more damage than anything.

Things have changed for the better since Aquaman, Shazam and Joker. Suicide Squad 2 is by James Gunn, and we got Matt Reeves' Batman coming. Along with WW 1984.

I'll be the first to admit that I lost faith in DC after BvS and Justice League and thought it was gonna be downhill from there, despite still enjoying those movies on some level.

Also we have to factor in that AT&T, who is the new owner of DC, is not gonna lay down and let DC go to hell like Time Warner was willing to. Since their acquisition, things have gotten better, not worse. I have faith in Birds of Prey despite seeming kind of cringy af lol. Robbie was probably one of the few good things about SS and the DCEU as a whole.

I dont think forcing an all female theme when it doesnt fit the pre-existing theme or setting will be a good idea. Especially when the expected lead protagonist isnt fully developed yet. Carol isnt as interesting as Tony as is.

I can't imagine a scenario that makes sense for that type of movie to exist, but I'm not a movie writer so who am I to say beforehand. I'd definitely be skeptical about it until I saw a trailer or something.

Even the scene in Endgame felt forced.

It wouldn't be that hard. Just write a situation in which the guy heroes are busy so only the girl heroes are available or just happen to be in the area.

Comics have been doing that for ages.

They need more characters, imo. Luckily, most of the female characters are kinda lone wolfish. Scarlet Witch is solo. Carol is solo. Gamora isnt, but shes the only serious one. So it wouldnt be hard for her to somehow split.

But we need more characters.

This was already literally a thing in Marvel Comics. In 2015 A-Force was made.

what is the point? why would there need to be an all-female marvel movie? there isn't an all-male marvel movie, nor should there be.


They'd be adapting an already established Marvel Comics storyline. This also allows to introduce more characters that have been missing like She Hulk since it looks like Hulk isn't healing from his Gauntlet injuries.

I think they wrote themselves into such a corner that the only way for it to naturally happen is like how hulk magically appeared in Thor 3.

Only difference is that instead of one character magically showing up itll be like 10 which makes it so, so much worse and forced

lol what do you think lobbying for "all-female" anything even is, other than pushing some pointless narrative?


They could just make a good movie with female characters.
