Marvel Boss Kevin Feige On Adam McKay’s Wish To Direct A Silver Surfer Film

During a red carpet interview with MTV News at the Golden Globe Awards, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige commented on Adam McKay’s wish to direct a Silver Surfer film.

Late last year, Vice director Adam McKay expressed his desire to direct a Silver Surfer film and joked about calling Kevin Feige after the rights to the character return to Marvel following the closure of the Disney-Fox deal. While Kevin Feige noted that he has not received a call about a Silver Surfer movie from McKay, he did state that he looks forward to talking with the filmmaker in the future:

“He’s an honest to goodness fan. He did a lot of behind-the-scenes help for us on the first Ant-Man film. […] I look forward to speaking with him more.”

The deal that will bring the Fox-owned Marvel characters, including the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, to the MCU is expected to close at the end of January.

A culmination of 22 interconnected films the fourth installment of the Avengers saga will draw audiences to witness the turning point of this epic journey. Our beloved heroes will truly understand how fragile this reality is and the sacrifices that must be made to uphold it.

Directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, Avengers: Endgame is expected to star Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Don Cheadle, Tom Holland, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Paul Rudd, Jeremy Renner, Brie Larson, Josh Brolin and Chris Pratt.

Avengers: Endgame is scheduled to be released in theaters on April 26, 2019.
