Sources within the industry inform that Marvel was introduced to the work of Raj and DK and Sita Menon through Russo Brothers, who are working with the trio on Citadel. “Marvel liked the flavor that Raj and DK bring to their stories and had a probable discussion to come on board to create a cool new origin story for a superhero. They have commissioned the responsibility to Raj and DK, who are at present working towards developing this story,” revealed a source close to the development.
According to the source, it’s a long journey ahead for Raj and DK, as the project would depend on several contingencies. “At first, Marvel should like what Raj and DK present. Once the basic draft is green-lit, there will be several writer's room discussions to enhance the write-up, and only then will the paperwork happen for this feature presentation. Right now, they are commissioned to develop one of the superhero origin ideas,” the source added.
Will Raj and DK direct the superhero film?
More details on the project are awaited, though, it would be difficult to crack any sort of information given that conversations are happening at a global level. It’s still not known if the story that the trio is working on is that of an Indian Superhero or just another Western character joining the MCU. “At present, they are writing the film and it’s not known if they will be on board to direct it too,” the source concluded. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
