'Candyman' director Nia DaCosta will reportedly direct 'Captain Marvel' sequel
The Captain Marvel sequel may have found its commander. Nia DaCosta, director of this year's highly anticipated Candyman remake, will sit in the director's chair for the upcoming superhero film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
