Kristen Stewart recently shared on a podcast that she’s unlikely to star in a Marvel movie unless major changes are made in the studio system or a filmmaker like Greta Gerwig gets involved. She expressed concern over the lack of personal touch in big-budget films.
Stewart has focused on indie projects, such as the crime thriller “Love Lies Bleeding,” which is currently showing in theaters. Starting her career in Hollywood blockbusters like “Panic Room,” she prefers films where she can connect with the audience.
Jodie Foster, Stewart’s mentor, also expressed fatigue with the prolonged superhero movie trend, sharing her hope for a shift in the industry’s focus beyond such blockbusters. Foster believes there should be room for all types of cinema beyond just superhero films.
Stewart and Foster’s comments reflect a growing sentiment among actors and filmmakers about the dominance of superhero movies in Hollywood and the need for a more diverse and varied cinematic landscape. It will be interesting to see how these discussions shape the future of the industry.
