Director Jon Favreau (Iron Man) spoke to MTV News, stating that Marvel's "Avengers" movie is "a great idea," and that he might like to direct it. Unfortunately, even if Favreau ends up in the helmer's chair, he might still have to wait a long time before shooting can begin.
Unlike how Warner Brothers is handling the "Justice League of America" movie - where audiences are being asked to accept different actors for Batman and Superman, as well as a whole legion of new characters like Green Lantern and Flash - Favreau insists that Marvel will only go ahead with the Avengers project if and when all the individual characters get their own story.
"[But] in the case of Marvel they're pretty clear on wanting to do it with the actors who've established the roles or to not do it at all. That's what they've said to me," he continued. "I think it's a good idea if you use the characters established in the other franchises that then come together for an event."
It'll be worth the wait, Favreau claimed, calling this way not only more impressive and formidable – but more consistent as well. "I wonder if the tone of 'The Incredible Hulk' is going to be similar or different than [Iron Man]," Favreau questioned. "And 'Captain America' is a twinkle in Marvel's eye right now. And 'Thor' and 'Ant Man.'"
