However, when asked about the character interactions in the film, that is the comparison Directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck came up with. The similarities they describe are more about the relationship between Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers and Sam Jackson’s young Nick Fury. The Directors recently discussed this with Fandango:
We approached this movie as being, at the heart of it, this mystery of self-identity for Captain Marvel. It has a lot of playfulness in it, and that kind of buddy-cop vibe that Captain Marvel has with the Nick Fury character was really an important touchstone for us. Yeah. Like the ’80s and ’90s buddy-cop movies, like 48 Hrs. or Lethal Weapon. We have some of that. Those movies, even the serious ones, they have a really terrific sense of humor, and we wanted to maintain that as well.
From the trailers released for Captain Marvel, do you get the kind of vibe that Directors Boden and Fleck are mentioning? If so, does that lead you to believe that will be a negative or positive aspect of the film? Share your thought with us at GVNation.
