Avengers: Infinity War writers say DC's movie plans are like "spaghetti being thrown at the wall"

Sunday 17 June 2018


Ever since Marvel first started their shared universe and had huge success with that, every other movie studio has wanted a piece of that pie.

DC, being the other comics giant with a billion superheroes to choose from, have tried to emulate that success with mixed results.

What can DC and Warner Bros do to sort themselves out? What better people to ask than Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus, the writers of Avengers: Infinity War.


Speaking to Kevin Smith on his 'Fat Man on Batman' podcast, Markus said: "I would look at what Marvel did out of necessity in that they didn't have their A-list characters.

"They didn't have Spider-Man, they didn't have the X-Men, and they went down the line and found a – I mean, he's pretty f**king famous, he's Iron Man, but he wasn't then – and they made a really good movie out of him.

"I might put Batman and Superman and everybody else, I mean Wonder Woman is doing fine, aside for a second, go through the vast world and go, 'That guy' or 'That girl,' and go, 'Let's just make a really good movie and not a universe and see what happens.'

"There's a lot of spaghetti being thrown at the wall."


When asked about Avengers 4, McFeely said that the film has been shot, and the team is assembling to get back to work on it: "It's not due for a while. There's time for reshoots and fixing and we're just scrubbing through it now.

"The Russo brothers have been in there for a few weeks now after the press tour and all that."

Avengers: Infinity War is now the fourth highest grossing movie of all time, having broke $2 billion at the box office, while last year's Justice League was the worst-performing DC film at the box office.

Avengers 4 will be released in the UK on April 26, 2019, and in the US on May 3, 2019.
