Fans are already eagerly looking forward to the return of Goose in The Marvels. The cat, er, Flerken, was a highlight of Captain Marvel and as for those kittens, we’ll we’ve already gotten a little taste thanks to trailers of just how scene-stealing they can be. It seems like fans are in for some more great feline moments in The Marvels, something executive producer Mary Livanos previously teased.
“Goose is her own person. She is full of surprises, and she certainly has a lot in store over the course of this story,” Livanos said.
Livanos was also excited about having all of the kittens on the set.
“The crew was delighted whenever the kittens were around,” Livanos said. “It was like Christmas when we had our bigger kitten scenes. Everyone had their own favorite.”
The Marvels Director Nia DaCosta is Excited for The Marvels
“I’m a big nerd from New York City, and here was this hero who was a big nerd from Jersey City, writing fan fiction the way I used to when I was that age,” DaCosta shared when asked about Kamala Khan. “It was really fun to feel close to that character in that really specific way, in a way you don’t often feel when it’s Iron Man or Thor. That was so exciting to me, knowing that I could be a part of bringing this character who I’ve loved for a decade to the big screen.”
“The biggest challenge was finding the balance between my point of view as a director and as a comic book nerd,” DaCosta volunteered. “Obviously, there are changes between the comics and the movies, and sometimes I’m like, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa!’ Sometimes Kevin [Feige] would be like, ‘You’re being too much of a nerd. Please stop.’”
