Marvel should do a Howard The Duck film

[Hordakfan]

I'd love to see Marvel do a new Howard film, ever since that cameo at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy, one of Marvel's funniest and weirdest characters Howard The Duck could be given another chance on film and his cameo stunned fans of the anthro character from the Steve Gerber comics.

It can be called Marvel's Howard: A New Species of Hero! It can star Emma Watson as Beverly Switzler and The Ringmaster can be the villain, Seth Green can reprise his voice role with WETA doing the effects. Who can play The Ringmaster?

It can have a cameo by Ant-Man or some other Marvel character! And the film can be a bit like Deadpool in it's deadpan sense of humor and all. Maybe also have him in Guardians 3 be nice with Silver Surfer.

I mean if the original film was considered a failure (even though it's a guilty pleasure of mine) just like how the Fox Daredevil film was considered a failure (but good in it's director's cut which is better than the butchery) as Fox gave back the rights to Daredevil to Marvel Studios as Marvel made people like Daredevil better as much as Fox made Deadpool likable than Wolverine Origins then Marvel/Disney can make Howard likable again even have James Gunn-co write the script and have a talented comedy director who is a fan of the source material for the job. And if audiences accepted a talking raccoon, maybe this duck is next and based on the modern incarnation from the recent comics.

We'll call it in Phase 4. I mean why not? Marvel doesn't even need to try to get people interested anyways so why not?

maybe not a full blown movie but like one of those marvel one shot shorts or whatever. dedicated to him.

I think they wanted to do one...

But the bill was too big

I don't know about a movie of his own, but I'd be totally for Howard showing up as supporting cast.

The interesting thing about the comic books was he was a cartoon duck in the 'real world'. I think a lot of that was lost in the first film because the suit/puppet didn't have the cartoonish expressions, movements etc. that made the comic-book work (not to understate the weak story, acting, directing etc. which were also problems).

So, yeah, now that we have CGI and the ability to do a more faithful, cartoonish version, I'd be interested in seeing it.

Originally Stan Winston was gonna do the effects for the original howard and even had a sketch/model of it before ILM made the suit/puppet which would had been better don't you think? WETA can do the effects here.

Who should play The Ringmaster? and who wants Emma Watson for the role of Beverly?
