CAPTAIN AMERICA 2 List of Potential Directors gets Shorter

Movie Marvel Captain America: The Winter Soldier about 12 years agoby Joey Paur

The short list of directors to possibly take on Captain America 2 just got a little shorter. It was revealed a couple of weeks ago that Writer and director of The Adjustment Bureau George Nolfi, F. Gary Gray (The Italian Job), and Anthony and Joseph Russo who are best known for their work on the TV series Community.

We can now scratch F. Gary Gary off that list due to the fact he's in heavy negotiations to direct the NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton., so he's withdrawn himself from Marvel's list. That leaves the other two directors listed, and whoever else Marvel is talking to that hasn't been revealed yet.

Disney recently set the official release date of the sequel for April 4th, 2012. I'm sad that Joe Johnston isn't coming back to diet the film, so I hope they end up getting someone decent to replace him. So far I'm not impressed with the list they have. Who would you choose to direct the movie?
