According to Nexus Point News, the studio has tapped Michael Green to pen the script for Midnight Sons. The hiring would make a lot of sense as Green recently penned the latest draft of Blade. Additionally, longtime Marvel producer Stephen Broussard has been brought on to produce the project. It is important to not that Marvel Studios has yet to officially confirm Midnight Sons, so it is important to take this new with a small grain of salt.
