Geneva Robertson-Dworet is a screenwriter on the rise.
Since breaking the duck on Tomb Raider (our review), she’s quickly settled into the wider Marvel universe, accepting gigs on Silver & Black and Captain Marvel, the first female-fronted title to emerge from the McU.
The latter project had Robertson-Dworet working on a treatment penned by Meg LeFauve and Nicole Perlman of Guardians of the Galaxy fame, and during a recent sit-down with Collider, the scribe spoke at length about the “kick-ass” Carol Danvers and why the upcoming Captain Marvel solo movie will set itself apart from its superhero peers.
We really were bringing so much of what was already in the comics onto the screen, it felt like, in terms of the amazing character who’s so funny and sassy and talks back, and she’s fearless. I love that Carol Danvers is so funny. She has a blast when she kicks ass.
