The Thunderbolts* manufacturer makes fun of that Mel of Geraldine Viswanathan will become singing bird in MCU

There seems to be good possibilities that Geraldine Viswanathancharacter, mel, in Thunderbolts* It could be on the road to become the hombird of anti-hero Marvel Comics songs. Fans have put together clues since the casting was announced and now, producer Brian Chapek Those flames with a not so thin nod is selling to a hidden Easter egg.

In the film, Mel is introduced as assistant to Val, apparently only a civil on the ground captured in the middle of madness. But the long -date Marvel readers immediately reduced when his name was revealed as “Mel”, unleashing theories that could be Melissa Gold, aka Songbird, a character who started as the villain who screamed Mimi before becoming a key player in the Thunderbolts team.

Now Chapek is pushing fans in that exact direction. In a recent interview, he made fun of:

“There is a character that fans are trying to understand is she or it is not – I would say that emblem wears that it can or not suggest the wider identity of this character.”

And quite safe, fans with eagle eyes saw Mel Sporting what seems to be a necklace of singing birds in a scene.

Anyway, Thunderbolts* It does not give Mel any strokes or superhuman powers, at least not yet. What gives them is an internal struggle and a shot at the moral rope, which is similar to the arch of Gold comics.

Geraldine Viswanathan, for his part, confirms nothing. But he shared some information on the role in Mel conflict in an interview with Collider:

“It seemed very clear to me what to trace, and it was really only that internal struggle, but also what makes it pop is that you don’t really know where his head is because he does not really follow it, but then he ends up guiding a lot of plot. He is also instigating great things. She takes them to the Tower of the Avengers … Even now it’s so, it’s so beautiful!

But we just had to really trust that it is a very real thing when you work for someone and you are like, ‘wait, are they bad? I want to do good, I think. We talked a lot about Jake and his assistant, and the dynamic one seemed to hope that he had broken out. But I think just trust that perhaps the audience weighs a little, or that she is a normal girl, and it is a very recognizable situation in which she finds herself. “

So, it seems that Marvel is laying the foundations for something bigger with this character and I guess we will see where it goes Avengers: Doomsday.
