‘Captain Marvel’ Producer Compares Film To ‘Terminator 2’ & ‘Robocop’

It seems that Captain Marvel will be very much like the 80s and 90s action movies as one of its producers compared it to films like Terminator 2 and Robocop.

During a set visit, Captain Marvel executive producer Jonathan Schwartz talked to the people at ComicBook.com. While discussing the film, the producer talked about its genre and said that it’ll remind people of action movies that they saw in those decades:

It feels weird calling it a genre, but the genre is ’90s action movie. If you think about movies like RoboCop or Total Recall or Terminator 2 or Independence Day I think there are common action movie threads you can tease through those movies which are what we’re trying to pick up on in this movie.

From the sound of things, we may be in store for a nostalgic time in the upcoming film!

What do you all make of this statement? Would you like to see Captain Marvel play like Terminator 2 or Robocop? Will the PG-13 rating even allow that? Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Here is a plot synopsis for Captain Marvel:

The story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races. Set in the 1990s, “Captain Marvel” is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Directed by Anna Boden & Ryan Fleck, Captain Marvel stars Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Djimon Hounsou, Lee Pace, Lashana Lynch, Gemma Chan, Algenis Perez Soto, Rune Temte, McKenna Grace, Clark Gregg, and Jude Law.

Captain Marvel will be released in theaters on March 8, 2019.
