Sydney Sweeney’s ‘Barbarella’ Movie Finally Gets Update Amid Box Office Woes

In an interview with Josh Horowitz on the Happy Sad Confused Podcast, director Edgar Wright discussed his feelings about comic book movies after leaving Marvel’s Ant-Man. He admitted that his experience with Ant-Man initially made him hesitant about superhero films, but he clarified he’s still open to working on other comic book adaptations. He’d actually like to do another one. While Wright didn’t say if Barbarella would be his next film, he did share that his vision for it would be more inspired by the original French comics than the well-known 1968 movie.
