Nia DaCosta Pitched Marvel A Storm Cyclops and Galactus Movie!

It is awesome when directors love their work and can help push Marvel to bring back the X-Men characters. Get more details on Storm Cyclops and Galactus X-Men movie…

CelebnMovies247.com reports that Candyman director Nia DaCosta is currently working hard on her MCU debut, The Marvels.

But the cool thing Nia DaCosta revealed is that she has other ideas for projects in the comic book movie franchise, namely The X-Men.

Nia revealed that she made an exciting pitch to Marvel Studios, and it involves the likes of Storm, Cyclops, and the planet devouring Galactus.

DeCosta said:

I just nerded out. I was like, here are the movies I think you should do! Galactus, Storm, and Scott Summers team-up movie! Blah blah blah!

Nia DaCosta is clearly a big Marvel fan, and from the sounds of it could not help but word vomit ideas all over the pitch meeting, shouting potential projects and character names that the studio should be focused on.

Marvel was more than happy to listen to DaCosta who praises the studio’s patience and hands-off approach, something which ultimately convinced her to sign on to helm the Captain Marvel sequel, The Marvels.

Nia said:

She just endured me going in super-deep. And she also gave me a lot of confidence that I would have the creative latitude to not just basically be a puppet on a string.

However, it is unclear what Marvel thought of DaCosta’s plans for the likes of Scott Summers and Storm, and whether they turned it down in favor of plans they already had in place for the beloved X-Men characters.

The Marvels Movie

Currently, DaCosta has her hands full bringing another superhero team to the big screen with The Marvels. The Marvel sequel will feature Brie Larson returning to the role of Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers. In the movie, she’ll be joined by Teyonah Parris, who was first introduced as adult Monica Rambeau in Marvel Studios’ WandaVision, along with Iman Vellani, who will appear as Ms. Marvel in the upcoming Disney+ series of the same name.

In closing, DaCosta revealed her approach to the comic book movie outing, comparing it to Candyman.
