Avengers : Secret Wars - Ils en parlent...

[EagleWolf]

Anthony Russo : “Endgame was the end, and it took a little time for us to begin to think about it as something other than an end. We’re very close with Kevin and Lou [D’Esposito, Marvel Studios’ Co-President] and the entire Marvel team and we’ve had conversations through the years. We’ve talked about a lot of ideas. Really what happened was, we ended up stumbling upon an idea that activated all of us. You couldn’t see it coming until it came, and once it came it was like, ‘Well, that’s a story we need to tell.’”

Joe Russo : “There were ideas that we were trying to wrap our heads around that preceded this one, and we just never found the story. I remember calling Steve [Steven McFeely] and said, ‘Hey, crazy idea. What do you think if we all go back and do Secret Wars?’. You were like, ‘Fuck no. Absolutely not.’ And then you hung up. And the next morning at 7.30 you called and were like, ‘Alright, I have an idea.’”

Joe Russo : "We definitely try to - I mean, we did so many of those movies in a row that you sort of forget about the pressure. The job is so all-encompassing and so intense that you can’t really think about, 'Well, what are people going to feel or think about this?' All you can think about is, 'Is this a good story that we want to tell or not? Why are we doing it?'"

"So we’re exclusively focused on the storytelling right now. And that’s the thing that brought us back - an idea for a story where we went, 'That’s a really, really interesting story to tell.'"

"And now we’re just focused on executing that idea. Pressure and fear usually make for very poor decision-making. So hopefully we just stay calm and keep making the stories the way we like to see them."


Anthony Russo : "Look, what you’re describing is like one of the most valuable aspects of the experience for us as fans and as storytellers. So, we lean into that in a strong way and we really feel like [the connective throughline is] one of the most unique things the MCU can do that other forms of cinematic storytelling can’t do."

"Part of the reason why we became reactivated - like Joe was describing in terms of like falling in love with a story that we felt was powerful and needed to be told—is exactly what you’re describing is that there is a narrative through everything."

"Even that portion of the narrative that has been unfolding since the end of 'Endgame.' We’re hopeful that we can pick up the story in a way that kind of honors what’s happened between now and then, but also moves it forward."

The Russo brothers have revealed which of Marvel's Secret Wars comic book series have inspired its movie namesake...

"Well, we always create our own version of the story. So, we use the comics as loose inspiration."

"But, you know, I grew up on the original run. That's something that got me into Marvel comic books. The Hickman run is also fantastic [and they're] very different from each other in a lot of ways, so we'll draw inspiration from both of them."

C'est tellement consensuel comme affirmation que ça en est presque une tautologie "oui nous on a grandi avec la première version mais la seconde est tellement géniale qu'on va de toute façon s'inspirer des deux" bah merci on est vachement plus avancés mdr

PS: bon on peut au moins supputer qu'ils n'adapteront probablement pas tous les concepts de Black Swans, de Sidera Maris, de Mapmakers et tous les systèmes et entités mis en place par les Builders (Ex Nihili, Alephs, Abyssi, Starbrands, Nightmasks, Justices, Ciphers, etc.) mais que subsisteront les Beyonders, les Incursions, Battleworld et peut-être les Black Priests et qu'ils feront leur tambouille avec tout ça quoi...

"What's compelling about these two new 'Avengers' movies is they're a beginning. It's a new beginning. So we told an ending story, now we're going to tell a beginning story, and then who knows where we'll go from there. Maybe there'll be another five years, but I think we just needed that time and perspective to figure out where it needed to go next, and the only thing that brought us back was the right story."
