The Comic: A group of seemingly average teenagers discover that their parents have super-powers in this quirky addition to the Marvel canon. Worse still, said parents aren't even heroes… they're supervillains! Stealing some weapons from their respective homes, they head out on the lam, before gradually realising that they've inherited some super-powers of their own…
The Movie: It's a cracking set-up for a movie adaptation, with the super-powered teen angle already having proven popular in the likes of Misfits and Chronicle. Known for its rollicking action and whip-smart dialogue, we'd have former Runaways writer Joss Whedon knock up the script for this one, before having him call on an old friend to direct…
Dream Director: Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon worked brilliantly together on the recently released The Cabin In The Woods, and we'd reunite them again for this one.
Cast: Hailee Steinfeld as Nico, Abigail Breslin as Gertrude, Chloe Moretz as Molly, Dakota Fanning as Karolina, Tristan Wilds as Alex and Alexander Ludwig as Chase.

Olga Kuryekno would make a more authentic Black Widow, than the attractive but performance-stunted and monotone Johansson. Deadpool deserves better than his 'end boss' role in Wolverine. Couldnt they have rebooted Daredevil instead of Spiderman?

I thought the Civil story arc was one of the best i've read from marvel, but i think its too big to fit into a movie, especially as it leads into the Secert Invasion and Dark Reign (which is also really good) arcs and isn't really resolved until the Siege storyline. I think it would work better if they had a 'Marvel Universe' tv show, but that's probably wishful thinking.

Oh, and i also still have an issue with the same actor playing two different characters from the same comic book universe (i'm shaking my fist at you Chris Evans!) - so sorry Idris Elba, you can't play Luke Cage.

Silver Surfer. Deserves a better crack of the whip than those awful FF movies.

I think Idris Elba is awesome, but apart from the fact that he's already played two different characters in the Marvel Universe, surely Michael Jai White is perfect casting for either a 70's era Luke Cage or a more up to date version?!

Your idea for Captain Britain actually sounds really interesting. It would be good to see how Cap would deal with the rampant corruption and the riots from last year. Would he be a government paid whipping boy or a drunk in a pub watching Britain crumble around him.
