AntMan helmer Peyton Reed wants to direct a Nova movie.
Now that Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is in theaters, Peyton Reed has become the first director in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to direct three films featuring a single character in the title role. Despite already starting the earliest work on Ant-Man 4, Reed now says he's willing to explore other corners of the MCU with some potential new additions.
"I'm not an X-Men guy. [Quantumania writer] Jeff Loveness, he's an X-Men guy," Reed told Collider."I love the X-Men, I love watching X-Men movies. I don't want to make an X-Men movie." That's when the filmmaker pointed out he doesn't need an A-list character to direct; as with Ant-Man and the Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel Studios has been able to make household names out of lesser-known characters.
"That's what's great about Marvel because there's this infinite... The ones that are interesting to me now are kind of the lesser. I mean, Ant-Man at the time – we knew Ant-Man, he was a founding member of the Avengers, but in terms of the public consciousness, he was probably a B-level, maybe a C-level character. Who knows, it depends on your point of view. I love that about him," he continued.0comments"To me, he was almost like a subculture Marvel hero.
