Legendary filmmaker George Romero almost directed Marvel’s first movie Copperhead, a new documentary reveals.
The movie was developed in the early ’80s by Marvel, and like Creepshow before it, Romero was intent on making Copperhead look as close to a comic as possible.
If Copperhead had been made, it almost certainly would have been better than Marvel’s actual first movie, Howard The Duck.
Now Bloody Disgusting reports another unrealized Romero movie, for which he would have teamed with Marvel to make their first superhero movie, Copperhead.
