‘The Marvels’ Director Breaks Down What Makes Her MCU Movie Special<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nia DaCosta embraced the directorial challenge of helming the Captain Marvel sequel, reuniting Brie Larson, Iman Vellani’s Ms. Marvel, and Teyonah Parris’s Monica Rambeau. DaCosta, known for her work on films like Little Woods and Candyman, discussed how “The Marvels” distinguishes itself from its MCU counterparts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The biggest difference from the other MCU movies to date is that it\u2019s really wacky and silly. The worlds we go to in this movie are worlds, unlike others you\u2019ve seen in the MCU. Bright worlds that you haven\u2019t seen before.”<\/p>\nNia DaCosta<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n
