Actor Ruth Wilson has said that she once turned down a role from Marvel Studios as she found the character “boring”.
The 36-year-old actor said she still looks forward to be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and wants to play a “baddie” in a film.
“I did have an interview for a Marvel thing ages ago. They wouldn’t say what the part was, so I made a questionnaire for the two directors.
‘Is she a baddie?’ They said she was a bit of both. ‘Does she wear leather or latex?’ They said no. I was like, ‘EER-EEER!’” Wilson said, according to FemaleFirst.
“I said, ‘How many days filming is it?’ They said 14. I said, ‘14? That’s not very long… EEREEER!’
So I said no. If you want to be in a Marvel movie, you’ve got to be a baddie or a superhero. Just being the girl on the side is boring. I’d be up for being a baddie,” she added.
The only time a Marvel movie has been directed by a duo is Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War.
Both films were helmed by Joe & Anthony Russo, who will return to direct Avengers: Infinity War. The forthcoming Captain Marvel movie will also be directed by a team – Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck.
