The Marvels is, first and foremost, a sequel to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Studios' 2019 flick Captain Marvel, but it's also a follow-up to Disney Plus TV shows 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:WandaVision, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ms. Marvel, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Secret Invasion. With that, it was imp😼ossible for director Nia DaCosta to base it on a sole comic, so she found inspiration in several. 

While chatting with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:GamesRadar+, the filmmaker, who co-wrote thꦐe movie with Megan McDonnell and Elissa Karasik, revealed that 1982's Amazing Spider-Man Annual #16 had a big influence on the film, as did a more recent Captain Marvel run of Kelly Sue DeConnick's, which sees Carol Danvers stru🃏ggling with sobriety. 

"[There was] the first issue where we meet Monica Rambeau, which is in a Spider-Man issue and he's, well, he’s basically being such a creep," DaCosta laughs. "He's like, 'There's someone in this airport who's giving me vibes' and he sees her and he's like, 'I'm gonna follow her' and then, and the text just says 'whꦍo's that lady?' which I love. 

"Then, for Captain Marvel, there's a moment, in one of [DeConnick's] issues where she's… falling? Basically she's a dry drunk, a recovering alcoholic, and she's falling to Earth because she cannot die and nothi✃ng can harm her, so it's the only way she can get a rush.

"I really liked that conceptually, that idea of her inner life so a lot of that went into this and building out more of Carol's character. Then, the first, I'd say, six issuesಌ of Ms. Marvel are just perfect, so we pulled them out, too."

Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Iman Vellani, Teyonah Parris, and Brie Larson, The Marvels takes place almost 30 years after the events of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Captain Marvel, and sees Kamala Khan, Monica, and C♐arol forced to form an unlikely team when their light-based powers become inexplicably entangled. Not ideal, really, when there's a Kree warrior (Zawe Ashton) causing chaos and conflict throughout the galaxy...

For DaCosta, a self-proclaimed X-Men and Spider-Man lover, the nerding out didn't stop once she got on set, either.🎐 "For me personally, i🦩t was so fun working with Iman. I'd just be like, 'What are you reading?' and she sent me this Black Bolt run that was really good. Then, in terms of her character Kamala, it's just great to infuse that sort of enthusiasm for superheroes, for Marvel from inside the film itself. It's so cool."

The Marvels releases in UK and US cinemas on November 10. Keep your eyes peeled later this week for the full interview on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Inside Total Film podcast.
