We heard earlier from Ant-Man director Peyton Reed that Marvel had the directors for their upcoming Captain Marvel film on lockdown. Now, Variety is reporting that Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck have been tapped to helm the film. The two teamed on Mississippi Grind and Half Nelson as well as television directing experience on The Affair and Billions. The film has had Oscar winner Brie Larson attached to star as Air Force pilot Carol Danvers for a while now, but they've taken their time to find a director. Inside Out screenwriters Meg LeFauve and Nicole Perlman are currently writing the script. Marvel has yet to comment.

Captain Marvel is set to his theaters May 8th, 2019.
