8 Pro Tips for Writing a Comic Book Movie From 'Captain America's' Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely

"Screenwriting duo Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely began their partnership in college, moved to Los Angeles together (“We watched Baywatch and thought, ‘Somebody wrote Baywatch — we could do that!’” quips McFeely), wrote a film for Bill Pullman, scripted The Life and Death of Peter Sellers, and caught the eye of Andrew Adamson, who then hired them to write all three Chronicles of Narnia films. Now they’ve penned Captain America: The First Avenger, the latest in Marvel Studios’ multi-film Avengers franchise and a rollicking WWII-set adventure that they hope to follow up with a sequel. It’s safe to say Markus and McFeely might have some wise words to share on the subject of their craft."
