Posted on April 19, 2017April 23, 2017 by Joseph Wade

Marvel have chosen Mississippi Grind and Half Nelson filmmakers Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck as the people to head their standalone Captain Marvel film.

Boden and Fleck have landed the position ahead of other shortlisted names Niki Caro (North Country – 2005), Lesli Linka Glatter (Homeland – 2012-2017) and Lorene Scafaria (Seeking A Friend for the End of the World – 2012), and will work under producer Kevin Feige.

It was announced back in July 2016 that ‘Room’ actor Brie Larson will play the iconic comic book character.

The film is currently slated for a March 8th 2019 release date.
