Rachel Brosnahan calls out actors for criticizing their own superhero films: ‘Do it or don't do it'
Rachel Brosnahan is stepping into the superhero universe this summer. She is all set to play Lois Lane in the upcoming Superman film. While some actors have been known to criticize their superhero roles, Brosnahan has made it clear she would not be one of them.
In a candid exchange with Amanda Seyfried for Interview magazine, the actress addressed the trend of actors disowning their involvement with comic book blockbusters after release.
'I don't know why people say yes [to a project] only to then turn around and complain about it,' Rachel Brosnahan said. 'Look, I don't want to s*it on other actors, but there was a minute where it was cool to not like superhero movies and to look back on projects like this and pooh-pooh them. Do it or don't do it, and then stand by it.'
Though the actress refrained from naming anyone, her words appeared to touch on the growing number of stars who have recently taken a step back from, or publicly critiqued, their own superhero ventures.
The upcoming Superman movie, directed by James Gunn, follows Superman as he tries to balance his alien roots with his life on Earth and his human family.
Along with Rachel Brosnahan, the film stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent, also known as Superman. Nicholas Hoult, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion and Isabela Merced are also part of the project. The film will hit cinema screens on July 11.
