Director, writer and voice actor David Hayter has revealed that he has penned a script for a Black Widow movie.
Hayter, best know for voicing Snake in Metal Gear Solid, told Latino Review that he is planning on approaching Marvel about the film again in the future.
He said: ‘For Black Widow I wrote [a script] ten years ago and I was attached to direct it then. Then a few female action movies came out and they didn’t do very well. And the movie got shelved. It’s on IMDB and I’m going to talk to Marvel about possibly re-igniting that project.
‘It really depends on Marvel on what they want to do with that character. So that’s the status of that right now.’
With more and more Marvel fans calling for a female-led superhero movie, and Black Widow becoming a firm favourite in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, perhaps now is the time to get to work on Hayter’s script?
