COMMUNITY Producers The Russo Brothers To Direct CAPTAIN AMERICA 2
What's this? Could the success of Joss Whedon's The Avengers have taught Marvel a thing or two about recruiting from the geek friendly ranks of television?
Sure, Marvel has already shown a willingness to recruit out of television - the Thor 2 director competition boiled down to a couple of Game Of Thrones veterans - but it would appear that they've gone to the geekiest of the geeky for the upcoming Captain America 2.
The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Joe and Anthony Russo are in final negotiations for the directing job, the directors of You Me & Dupree better known in recent days for their role as executive producers and sometimes directors on NBCs Community. Which is one of the most geek friendly things to ever appear on network television.
Give Marvel this much: They know who their audience is. And they're smart enough to hire directors who know it, too.
