Marvel Studios might have taken a significant step forward in developing its planned Midnight Sons movie, as a new rumour claims the project has enlisted a writer.
According to Nexus Point News—known for breaking significant scoops under DCULeaks—Michael Green has been hired to pen the script. Green, who wrote the original script for the long-awaited Blade reboot, has also worked on Netflix’s Blue Eye Samurai, Kenneth Branagh’s Hercule Poirot trilogy, Blade Runner 2049, and Logan.
While Green would almost certainly be a popular pick, it’s important to note that a Midnight Sons movie has yet to be officially announced. However, it’s likely Marvel Studios will eventually assemble their supernatural characters for a team-up.
Multiple characters have been part of or associated with the team in the comics over the years. According to another recent rumor from The Cosmic Circus, the MCU’s lineup will most likely include Wong, Moon Knight, Ghost Rider, Blade, Werewolf by Night, and Man-Thing.
“Other names I’ve heard, from most to least likely, include Black Knight, Scarlet Scarab, Elsa Bloodstone, Dr. Strange, and even Agatha Harkness. But if I had to guess how many members I’d expect for this team lineup, I’d say between 6-9 members.”
Moon Knight star Oscar Isaac showed interest in reprising his role(s) for a Midnight Suns project in a recent interview.
“I thought there was an interesting opportunity with Midnight Sons. There’s such interesting characters in there, and now that we’ve set the groundwork with learning who Marc, Steven, Jake are, it could be an interesting opportunity to see him as part of a team and what that dynamic would be. So I think that would be exciting, I think for me, I definitely hope there’s some room to explore that possibility.”
As for who could wind up in the director’s chair, rumors suggest that Michael Giacchino (Werewolf By Night) and Fede Alvarez (Alien: Romulus) are on the studio’s radar.

“Stephen Strange, AKA Doctor Strange, gathers a loose-knit confederation of mystically powered heroes, originally called the Nine and eventually the Midnight Sons, to serve as mankind’s first line of defense against the Mother of Demons, Lilith, and her children, the Lilin.”
