Captain America Writer Revealed
February 17, 2006 Comments
Earlier in the week, Avi Arad mentioned that a Captain America script was in production, but failed to say who the writer was. Now, a reliable informant has told IGN FilmForce who the screenwriter is: David Self.
Self has worked on two other Marvel projects, The Sub-Mariner (a script that Arad has long raved about) and Deathlok. He also adapted the graphic novel Road to Perdition for the big screen, and wrote the Cuban Missile Crisis drama Thirteen Days.
I'm glad they're getting moving on this so that we can finally get a decent Captain America into theaters. Because the faster we do that, the faster other countries can begin attacking us for our national arrogance.
