After fans got excited about Ava DuVernay to direct Marvel’s film “Black Panther.”  DuVernay would’ve been the first black female to Direct and complete a Marvel film. She simply stated that it was not for her.

“I’m not signing on to direct Black Panther,” she added. “I think I’ll just say we had different ideas about what the story would be. Marvel has a certain way of doing things and I think they’re fantastic and a lot of people love what they do. I loved that they reached out to me.”
