After the criticism of Quentin Tarantino on the Marvel movies and the stars quite a lot of actors came out to him.
Recently, the MCU’s stalwart Samuel L. Jackson, a longtime collaborator, disagreed with the director’s remarks.
Jackson has recently launched his book Pulp Fiction, and while promoting his book during the podcast he says, “Part of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood is… you have all these actors who have become famous playing these characters. But they’re not movie stars. But they’re not movie stars. Right? Captain America is the star. Or Thor is the star.”
While appearing at a show Jackson referred to Tarantino’s statements and says, “It takes an actor to be those particular characters, and the sign of movie stardom has always been, what, asses in seats? What are we talking about?”
He further says, “That’s not a big controversy for me to know that apparently, these actors are movie stars. Chadwick Boseman is Black Panther. You can’t refute that, and he’s a movie star.”
Jackson and Tarantino has quite good work relations and they have done a few projects together so Jackson’s answer will undoubtedly become more sensational as a result, but it remains to be seen how it will impact their working relationship.
