Overview

• DaCosta told The Hollywood Reporter that a lack of a “really solid script” was the chief problem that derailed the film’s process.
• She said the final cut diverged from what she pitched or initially shot, describing her creative voice as diminished by the process reported by Deadline.
• The project functioned as a sequel to Captain Marvel while aligning with Disney+ series WandaVision and Ms. Marvel, adding complexity to the script and production.
• The Marvels underperformed at the box office and is widely cited as the MCU’s lowest-grossing entry, with the film now streaming on Disney+.
• Contrasting that experience, DaCosta called making 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple one of her best, with that film dated for January 16, 2026, and her drama Hedda slated for October 22, 2025.
