[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5488″ img_size=”620×420″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Let’s file this in the Rumors to be followed up on if there is anything proven box.
Could Marvel be bringing Captain Britain to the big screen? A new rumor suggests it’s possible, but by definition, it’s a rumor, which means it’s validity has not been verified. However, the concept is exciting.
Ain’t It Cool News reports that a source they have referred to as “Super Grip” has tipped them off to the possibility of the unannounced Marvel Studios film. The story goes that Captain Britain and the Black Knight would be the film and it would reportedly be directed by Guy Ritchie. It was also intimated that the studio is trying to take advantage of the studio vacancies that were created by Danny Boyle’s departure from the next James Bond movie.
In their report, the “Super Grip” had this to say:
“I work at various movie studios in the UK and have been situated at Pinewood for a few weeks, and I’m moving to Cardiff on a project soon. I haven’t seen anything about this online anywhere, so I thought I’d send the info on to you: Space at Pinewood has been booked for November & December 2018 to hold auditions for a Marvel project called CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND THE BLACK KNIGHT. The name of the director booked in for all these dates is GUY RITCHIE. Marvel seems to be moving fast with it to fill in the space left behind by Danny Boyle’s aborted Bond 25. Everyone is excited because it looks like another few months of solid work when we thought we would have to wait a while.”
As far as rumors go, this is an exciting premise but without any hard evidence behind it, it should be taken as most rumors are with a healthy dose of skepticism. Especially as Marvel Studios is not exactly a “fly by the seat of your pants”organization and generally plans things out well in advance. So the idea that an empty studio space would spur them into action seems unlikely. Nonetheless, we here at GVNation will continue to monitor the situation and let you know when and if this smoke begins to become a flame. Does even the chance to see a Captain Britain and the Black Knight Movie excite you? Share your thoughts on this rumor with us at GVNation.
