Which will be the first comic book franchise musical?

[Silvermoth]

The reason why comic book movies have dominated for so long is because they are constantly delving into new genres (eg: noir, fantasy, science fiction, space opera, cowboy movie). What do you think will be the first comic book musical?

I could see someone making a completely over the top baz luhrman style dazzler movie I reckon

I just can't see a superhero musical working in either of the 3 major superhero franchises (MCU, DCEU, X-Men.)

 

[2kt09]

Scott Pilgrim vs the World

I hope Julie Taymor makes Spider-Man: Turn of the Dark into a movie someday.

A Deadpool musical could be hilarious.

Apparently.....in season 2 of SUPERGIRL.....there will be a crossover episode with THE FLASH that is a musical directed by Joss Whedon -

I saw! Oh my gosh I almost lost my mind when I heard that news! It sounds sublime!

I've got to say, I was expecting Black Canary to do better on the poll. Maybe with Victoria Justice or someone like her in the lead, I don't know

Black Bolt: The Sound of Silence!

Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark would be something.

I remember right after Across The Universe came out, Evan Rachel Wood and Jim Sturgess were so gung ho about that...oh how things changed.

A Dazzler movie would be fun and revolutionary especially if its filled with bop pop songs!

Definitely. If ever Baz Luhrman wanted to do a comic book movie he should do that one
