Woody Allen says he’s never seen a Marvel movie and criticizes, “It has nothing to do with the movies.”

Despite the criticism, the director said that he had never seen a Marvel Studios film!

Becoming persona non grata in Hollywood after he was publicly accused of grooming and seducing his stepdaughter, to whom he is now married. Now the director is back with his new (and last) film and during the promotional campaign he criticized Marvel and superhero films.

Allen traveled to Portugal last week to promote his next feature film. Chance Cup. The director then took part in a Q&A session with fans where he was asked what he thought of superhero adaptations. To be fair, Allen said (via Reel World):

“I’m just theoretically sick of Marvel movies because I’ve never seen any of them. I don’t like these budgets [milionários]“This is an industry that has nothing to do with cinema as an art form.”

Allen’s criticism is not unprecedented in the film industry, as other notable directors such as Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino This Francis Ford Coppola They have already explained loud and clear the issues raised by superhero films and their impact on the audiovisual market.

Coup de Chance, Woody Allen’s new (and final) film, will be released later this year.

Among our defenders we have such names as James Gunn, Danai Gurira, Samuel L. Jackson and even Chris Hemsworth.
