“Does anyone want me to do it again?”: Brie Larson Fed Up of Sexist Marvel Trolls, Hints She May Not Return to Captain Marvel Role in Future
The much-known American actress and filmmaker, Brie Larson entered stardom via brilliantly executed roles. The actress, 32 has accomplished a feat by landing and playing some really significant roles in her career. But the star gained way more attention after landing the role of Captain Marvel. However, the spotlight came with a bunch of trolls. Larson recently spoke to Variety on Saturday at the D23 Expo and there was a lot to cover.
Brie Larson gives a scoffing answer about her future in the Marvel Universe
A chat with Variety has caused a foggy future for Captain Marvel. Brie Larson responds sarcastically to the magazine when questioned about her future plans as Carol Danvers or Captain Marvel.
The Academy Award winner said, “I don’t know, I don’t know — does anyone want me to do it again?” When asked again, she goes on to say “I don’t know, I really don’t know. I don’t have the answer to that.” It appears that the actress might have hinted this because of the immense internet trolling she has been facing.
Captain Marvel is being trolled and she knows it
The Room actress is aware of the backlash that her casting in the Marvel Studios roster of superhero actors’ has received. Despite gaining huge box office success for Captain Marvel which was released back in 2019, there have been sexist comments about the actress and her character. Such comments go back to even before the movie’s release. Leading the film as the superhero with the title of seventh-highest-grossing Marvel Cinematic Universe movie has been no help. Larson still continues to receive snotty comments and unnecessary hate.
In previous interviews, Brie Larson had ruled out the possibility of hate
Back in October of 2019, in an interview with Variety, the actress said that she never finds the time to read about herself on the internet. “I don’t have time for it, you know?”, she had told the outlet at that time. “The things that I have extra time to really look at are, like: Am I eating healthy food? Am I drinking water? Am I meditating? Have I called my mom today?”
