“I think that the Marvel has this secret weapon that they have not yet been able to reveal, which is the whole X -Men universe – which brought me into comics,” said Miller. “The X-Men are my favorite characters. I wrote [Marvel boss] Kevin Feige, and I say to myself: “If there was something you would let me do in the Marvel universe, please, the X-Men would be that. I had a development X-Men film at Fox when the merger occurred, which would have been great. [It was based on] X-Men 143, who was Alone at home encounter Stranger. “”
Covering his bases a little, Miller adds: “But if DC manages to do AuthorityIt is my favorite comic strip of all time – it is justice league if they killed people. I think there is a lot of room left [in the genre]Lots of different stories to tell. »»
Miller notes that he was a big fan of the Marvel effort recently released Thunderbolt*, which received solid criticism, although a little fought at the box office. “I thought Thunderbolt* was an excellent film, “he said.” Florence Pugh was incredible. All the other actors did an incredible job and the action was good and based on earth. Overall, the film was thematically coherent. In a way, you forget how much it matters – when everything is fixed in a way that seems super satisfactory.

I have nothing to complain about, and Ryan Reynolds crushed him. I did not expect to have my own studio. I did not expect to do a functionality, even less a function that would succeed because dead PoolOr [make Terminator: Dark Fate]. Even if [Dark Fate] Did not have so much financially successful at the time, it was in the dark now. And then to be able to do Love Death + RobotsWhich is probably my success that I am most. In addition, I’m old – but I’m not finished yet.
