Marvel Withdraws ‘Captain Marvel’ in Favor of ‘Ant-Man’ Sequel

Disney seems to have adjusted its line-up as to what movies gets to be releases first. Some upcoming movie projects have been pushed back in favor of some others.

Movie Pilot reports that "Ant-man" sequel gets a green-lit from Disney together with the "The Wasp." The sequel movie is scheduled for release on July 6, 2016. It goes without saying that the movie of Paul Rudd is placed "right in the middle of Marvel's Phase 3. An end result does leave Captain Marvel slated for March 8, 2019 instead of November 2, 2018."

This might be great news for the many fans of "Ant-Man," but for those who are rooting for the stand-alone movie of a female superhero, this is not good news at all. Others might feel bum that they are going to wait much longer than they're expecting.

Nonetheless, it is pretty much exciting to know that Disney and Marvel are going for "Ant-man and The Wasp" movie project. Those who are avid readers of the comics know pretty well how these two superheroes work together. It is truly a pleasure seeing them fighting against crimes together in the big screen. In addition, Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly have a good chemistry as well.

In a separate report, Blastr states that despite Marvel giving "The Wasp" a relative importance in the upcoming sequel of "Ant-man," the upcoming movie project of "Captain Marvel" is notably the first stand-alone film of a female superhero that has ever produced by the studio. This fact may add pressure in making this movie, but the real challenge lies in coming up with a compelling story. Meg LeFauve, one of the writers of "Captain Marvel" reveals that one of the biggest challenge is to find away "to tell a compelling story with stakes about a character with near-limitless powers." One of the steps they are taking to be able to achieve their goal is to discuss high points in finding a way "way to make Carol a relatable, vulnerable hero."
