While she was doing press exterior the principle stage space, she was requested a reasonably simple query — how lengthy do you suppose you may proceed to play Capt. Marvel?
Her reply’s telling. She says she frankly does not know, brazenly questioning/questioning whether or not folks truly need her to take up the mantle any greater than she already has. It was just a little tense, and the interviewer tried lightening the temper … to no actual avail.
Honest reply: Brie all the time got here throughout as very smug and conceited in her interviews when Cap Marvel got here out. She thinks she’s being witty, nevertheless it comes off as hostile. This seems to be one other occasion the place she thinks she’s being playful however isn’t coming off that means.

Now, the backlash … Brie’s catching flak from quantity of oldsters replying to this video within the feedback — with their foremost gripe being, why is she making such a giant passive-aggressive stink over such a layup of a query … particularly with this saga being years outdated.
We’ll spare you the small print of all of it, however basically … when Brie was forged as Captain Marvel again in 2018 and with its launch in 2019, there was a variety of seemingly random hate geared toward her — for quite a lot of causes not even we perceive. Her haters say she’s merely unlikable — her advocates say she’s the sufferer of blatant misogyny by a rabid fan base.
Why does Brie Larson exit of her to be as unbearable and unlikable as doable in so many interviews? Probably has one of the inflated egos of any actor working in Hollywood at the moment. https://t.co/2VFFIoa2ra

John Boyega Rips Disney for Ruining His ‘Star Wars’ Character Development
Of course, she’s going to do that latest film — which comes out subsequent 12 months — the place she’ll reprise her character … however with all of the grief she’s getting, we would not be shocked if she hangs it up and strikes on from the Mouse House.
John Boyega will get this all too effectively … he, too, had a tough go with the ‘Star Wars’ fan base, and Disney at massive. Safe to say, that studio and all that comes with it ain’t for everybody.
