Finally, our prayers have been answered. A female-centric superhero film will be coming our way soon!
There certainly has been a lack of female-led superhero films these days as both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Cinematic Universe have only briefly introduced female superheroes in their films.
Marvel Studios president Kevin Fiege has recently talked about the intention of bringing more female superheroes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, Feige said that it might take a while to roll out a female-centric superhero films due to the studio’s existing franchises such as the Avengers, Captain America, Guardians of the Galaxy, and so on.
But now, it seems like Sony is planning to bring female superheroes to the big screen and become one of the first to roll out a female-centric superhero film that hasn’t been done in decades.
It has already been reported that Lisa Joy Nolan will be writing the script for the spin-off film. She has previously written the script for the sci-fi thriller film, “Reminiscence” and worked on various TV series including “Burn Notice” and “Pushing Daisies”. Lisa also co-created and executive produced HBO’s Westword, which stars Anthony Hopkins and Evan Rachel Wood.
Although there isn’t much info on the spin-off film yet, we think these characters are some of the female superheroes that could be appearing in the Spider-Man universe!
Meanwhile, Sony has already pushed back the release date of “The Amazing Spider-Man 3″ to make way for Spider-Man spin-off film “Sinister Six”. The film is set to be released in 2016 and it centres on Spider-Man’s greatest villains who have gathered to defeat the masked hero.
