    That's cause they're usually in the middle of nowhere. They aren't in the same place night after night

    He's Oliver's body guard in public and he also publicaly fights alongside The Arrow at night. But no one puts two and two together? Give me a freakin' break! Dude, just throw on a ski mask or something like that. I know it's just a superhero show, but come on. ...lol

    ... I'm dying over here ...LMAO!!!

    You're right. But, that's all they had on Wildcat. Talk about a wasted character, though. He should be part of that new show they're doing. But, of course, he's not.

    How can Supergirl have a scar on her forehead and she's just starting out? She's damn near indestructible with almost unlimited healing potential!

    Other than that, looks like it's worth checking out. So, I'll give it a shot. But, it really looks like a CW show. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I like most of the CW shows (They stay snappin' necks in New Orleans and Mystic Falls). This just doesn't look like CBS.

    The scar of people aching over the fact that Jimmy Olsen will be her love interest. :lol:

    But, I am looking forward to this show as well. And sure, it as a "CW vibe" but that is because it's done by the same people. And personally, I'd prefer that they put it on the CW. At least see if they can somehow connect in the same universe.

    Then again, I hear the Sandman is being picked up for CBS, so it would make sense since...well...The Endless are very powerful beings and crossovers would be expected.

    Ava DuVernay to direct Black Panther and Ms. Marvel

    SOURCE: http://www.thewrap.com/marvel-courting-ava-duvernay-to-direct-diverse-superhero-movie-exclusive/

    [​IMG]

    Marvel is courting “Selma” filmmaker Ava DuVernay to direct one of its diverse superhero movies, which include “Black Panther” and “Captain Marvel,” multiple individuals with knowledge of the situation have told TheWrap. Insiders suggest that “Black Panther,” due first in July 2018, is the most likely possibility.

    Marvel has had discussions with DuVernay about taking the reins of one of its marquee comic book properties and while the studio is considering other directors, there is mutual interest in having her join the MCU.
    Marvel’s courtship surfaces on the same day that the American Civil Liberties Union asked state and federal agencies to investigate Hollywood’s hiring practices at major studios, networks and talent agencies. The ACLU has alleged rampant and intentional gender discrimination in recruiting and hiring female directors.

    A woman has never directed a Marvel movie, though the company did hire Patty Jenkins to direct “Thor: The Dark World.” Following creative differences, she was eventually replaced by Alan Taylor. Jenkins recently replaced Michelle MacLaren as the director of “Wonder Woman” at Warner Bros., which has been eager to beat Marvel to the proverbial punch when it comes to diversity within its comic book movie universe.
    Insiders told TheWrap that Marvel is intent on hiring an African-American director for “Black Panther” and a female filmmaker for “Captain Marvel.” DuVernay’s hiring would make her Marvel’s first African-American and first female director, which would no doubt double as a public relations boon for the company.

    “Black Panther” is set to star Chadwick Boseman as T’Challa, the prince of Wakanda who must take over his father’s throne and avenge his death. “Captain Marvel” follows a woman named Carol Danvers who receives powers after encountering an alien from the Kree Empire. Slated for release on Nov. 2, 2018, the film is Marvel’s first female-driven superhero movie, and will be written by Nicole Perlman (“Guardians of the Galaxy”) and Meg LeFauve (“Inside Out”).

    DuVernay actually has experience with comic book movies… sort of. Back in her publicist days, she did “promotional services” for Sam Raimi‘s “Spider-Man 2,” which inexplicably remains her top credit on IMDb Pro despite the fact that “Selma,” which she directed, was Oscar-nominated for Best Picture and won a slew of other awards from critics and guilds.

    There was outrage throughout Hollywood when DuVernay failed to receive a Best Director nomination from the Academy, and she has been in high demand ever since the world premiere of “Selma” moved its audience to tears. DuVernay is developing a TV series for Oprah Winfrey‘s OWN network based on the book “Queen Sugar” and recently wrapped CBS’ civil rights drama pilot “For Justice.” She has also set up an untitled Hurricane Katrina movie at Participant Media that will star her fellow producer David Oyelowo.

    DuVernay made her directorial debut with the 2008 documentary “This Is the Life” before moving on to narrative filmmaking with the 2010 indie drama “I Will Follow.” Her breakout film was 2012’s “Middle of Nowhere,” after which she was hired to direct the Martin Luther King Jr. movie “Selma” for Paramount, Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Films and Brad Pitt‘s Plan B Entertainment.

    DuVernay, who is represented by Paradigm, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    "DOPE" DIRECTOR RICK FAMUYIWA ALSO REPORTEDLY EYED FOR BLACK PANTHER MOVIE


    [​IMG]


    Sources : IGN.com & Indie Wire Blog.com


    Less than 24 hours after it was claimed Marvel is reportedly courting Selma director Ava DuVernay for one of its upcoming Phase 3 films, with Black Panther suggested as the most likely project, a new rumour claims Marvel is circling another director for its 2018 Black Panther solo outing.


    According to El Mayimbe (via Twitter), it sounds like Marvel may have also met with Dope director Rick Famuyiwa. It's strictly a rumour for now of course, but the studio is known for hiring lesser known (i.e. cheap) filmmakers who have impressed critics and moviegoers with TV shows or smaller films. Famuyiwa is a native of Nigeria and his latest film, the comedy-drama Dope, debuted at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year where it reportedly received offers from at least six studios keen to distribute it.

    While yesterday’s rumour suggested Black Panther was the most likely reason Marvel is reportedly circling DuVernay there are, of course, several other films on the slate for Phase 3 and it’s entirely possible Marvel could be looking at DuVernay to helm Captain Marvel.

    Black Panther’s first solo film is scheduled to open on July 6, 2018, although we’ll see Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa in Captain America: Civil War on May 6, 2016.

    Because black panther with a white director would be too much

    Marvel is just trying to cater to the PC police.

    It's the same reason WB is only looking for female directors for the Wonder Woman movie.
