Marvel is Still Interested in Developing The Kid Superhero Comic POWER PACK as a Film

Apparently, Marvel Studios is still interested in eventually developing the comic series Power Pack into a movie. The comic centers around a ground of superpowered kids who embark on adventures to fight evil. In case you don't remember, director James Gunn originally pitched this movie to Marvel.

During an interview with Screen Rant, Kevin Feige was asked about the Power Pack project and he says that it's something they really would like to do. 

"Power Pack is a property that we've been interested in for a long time, for many years because we wanted to do something for families, something that's a little younger, Ant-Man has kind of become that franchise, certainly with Ant-Man and the Wasp, but Power Pack still is one of the many things that we discuss, wouldn't it be fun to do someday?"

If they did want to develop a film for younger audiences and families, Power Pack is definitely one of the ways to go. It has themes that both kids and adults could enjoy. There's also some great humor in the series and the character would be fun to bring to the big screen.

Power Pack was created by Louise Simonson and June Brigman and first appeared in Power Pack Vol.1 issue 1 in 1984.

The story focuses on Alex (12), Julie (10), Jack (8), and Katie Power (5) who meet an alien named "Whitey" Whitemane. This alien gives each of them one of his powers before his death, imbuing them with unique superpowers. These four kids end up becoming one the youngest superhero teams ever and they fight to save the world from an alien invasion.

What do you think of Marvel looking to develop a Power Pack film at some point in the future? It would be interesting to see how these characters would fit in with the larger cinematic universe.
