Jake Schreier says he's using what he learned from directing Thunderbolts to helm Marvel's upcoming X-Men movie, which will introduce the mutants into the MCU for the very first time.
"I can't say anything about it, but we've started work on X-Men, and that's obviously very, very exciting," Schreier told Empire. "There are so many things that I didn't know about before I started [Thunderbolts*]. The biggest learning curve for me was the proportion of the action to the more emotional, character-driven scenes, and how, even though it's more shooting days than I've ever had, they get eaten up quite quickly by the action stuff. By the time we got to the end of it, it felt like, 'Oh, now I feel like we get how to do this a little bit better.'"
