Chris Hemsworth is opening up about booking roles outside of the MCU and unfavorable comments from Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino about actors in superhero films.

Britain’s News Channel that, according to an industry insider, “the next James Bond won’t be white.” Ariel in the Disney remake “The Little Mermaid” was also mentioned as a white character who had been recast as nonwhite.“And I thought that was a little bit more of an odd fit,” Cuomo went on. “But if you were going to play to the global palette, wouldn’t he, and if it’s for America, wouldn’t he be Latino? And if it’s for the world market, wouldn’t he probably come from Bollywood? I mean, why is there this expectation that he has to be a Black actor?”“I don’t think there’s an expectation that he has to be a Black actor. The idea is that he has been White for six iterations and there is no problem in opening it up to other people,” Mystal responded.

Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino’s past criticism of Marvel movies as “super depressing”.In 2019, Scorsese said films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe were “not cinema”. The director later expanded upon his criticism in an article for The New York Times, where he highlighted their negative impact on the exhibition of non-franchise films.Tarantino, meanwhile, claimed Marvel actors aren’t real movie stars during a podcast appearance in November. “Part of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood is… you have all these actors who have become famous playing these characters.

Working as a major part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe comes with its own set of positives and negatives. Seemingly, the good far outweighs the bad, right?

And I mean, now is a good time because I mean, what even is a motion picture anyway anymore? Is it just something that they show on Apple? That would be diminishing returns,” he said.He continued: “I mean, and I’m not picking on anybody, but apparently for Netflix, Ryan Reynolds has made $50 million on this movie and $50 million on that movie and $50 million on the next movie for them.
