Directors are the authors of movies. They have a vision for their stories, actors, characters, audience and themselves. They take up the width and create a whirlwind of splendor. To tell the truth or exaggerating the truth, directors know where, when and how to show the truth in just a few hours. The process may rely on a specific camera placement to capture a needed point of view. Other times, what’s outside the frame is most important. Directors have a world of imagination and reality to work with what viewers find meaning in.
The comic world and its adaptations are filled with fantastical plots and gritty realism. Marvel relies on sensational spectacle, daring exploits and charming yet gripping humor. Their characters are cultural icons, recognizable and relatable to all ages. The stories, retcons, reboots and multiverses provide endless bric-à-brac for a growing number of fans, generation after generation. With a cinematic universe to cultivate and deliver stage after stage, it’s understandable why some directors would never get close to the family-friendly modern myths.
9/9 Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan is a stilted director with psychological thrillers that will leave you scratching your head and the head next to you. What he did for the Batman franchise with The Dark Knight trilogy was unthinkable. He made realistic Gotham City and Bruce Wayne, characters with enough pathos, logos and ethos to work with. His other think pieces include Keepsake, Start, Interstellar, Basic principleand The illusionist, all deeply rooted in science fiction and psychology. A Nolan Marvel movie would be unlikely. His characters would be too busy contemplating their existential crisis to live out their adventures from the comics. Nolan would be to Marvel what Snyder was to DC.
8/9 Clint Eastwood
The director with a stone face Clint Eastwood bases his films on reality. Starring in action thrillers such as Dirty Harry and westerns like The good the bad and the ugly are a long way from men in spandex. The topic of superheroes is metaphorical at best and impractical for him at worst. His dramatic stubborn resolve Gran Torino shows that old habits are persistent. The one habit that won’t die for Eastwood is glamorous storytelling. No fluff or flash is needed when it comes to the weight of situations for his characters. Besides, Eastwood is known for keeping the first take in his movies, which doesn’t bode well for heroes or villains.
7/9 David Lynch
David Lynch is a sucker of a director. He is the epitome of a dream within a dream, with experience as a painter and musician, and his films are no different. His movies Blue velvet, Eraser head, Mullholand Driveand The Elephant Man have metaphysical abstractions. Known for his surrealism and non-linear storytelling, Lynch would make comic book continuity harder to follow than it already is. He would take out every literal, figurative, and technical sense there is and use them all to create a superhero we already knew. Lynch would also encourage the audience to practice Transcendental Meditation, replacing the snipe in intermission Let’s all go to the lobby and concessions.
6/9 James Cameron
James Cameron it takes years to make his blockbusters. The man spent 15 years creating avatar after filming Titanic since the technology he needed FernGully in space did not yet exist. A smart move, but most people don’t have that much patience or attention span. from Cameron Aliens and The terminator have dramatic, unwavering characters who butt heads when there’s conflict, a recipe for comic book storylines. His films are also among the highest-grossing films ever made, so he can throw money at a Marvel project. As an environmentalist, he could make Swamp Thing for DC, but otherwise he’d better wait for another super-computerized feat of filmmaking.
5/9 Martin Scorsese
4/9
Martin Scorsese famously denounced comic book movies, so the chances of him directing a Marvel movie are next to nil. When his friend and actor Robert De Niro played the lead role joker, the tables turned and anticipation of what comic book adaptations could be soared. He has a good handle on complex character studies as in Casino, Gangs of New Yorkand Cab driver. Superheroes and villains have their own problems; it wouldn’t be impossible to see a Marvel movie coming from Scorsese. Though it would be impossible for Scorsese to make a Marvel movie at this point in his career.
3/9 Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino is an independent, non-conformist filmmaker. He has the fervor of a cartoon character; his movies Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction are proof of that. However, Tarantino does not follow a strict formula. He could make a graphic novel adaptation with stylized violence and profanity, but Marvel is the opposite vehicle. With the exception of anti-heroes like Deadpool and the Punisher, Tarantino wouldn’t follow form quite as closely with any other Marvel character.
2/9 Ridley Scott

Ridley Scott creates grand epics like Gladiator or thoughtful morality plays like blade runner. He uses the setting in his films to tell his stories and share the lives of his characters. A comic world wouldn’t be far-fetched for Scott. While focusing on telling atmospheric stories, the comic book characters can get lost in the stratosphere.
1/9 Tim Burton
Tim Burton is responsible for reviving Batman to his status as a cultural icon. He proved to viewers that the Dark Knight could be taken seriously again. Burton functions in the dark and works with the shadows in the light, but Marvel is colorful and loud. Burton should adapt Marvel’s most gloomy and macabre characters or direct one of the classic monster adaptations like Werewolf at night.
