Brie Larson Signs Seven Movie Deal with Marvel Despite Slayven's Warnings
- Thread starter BWoog

No, her comics aren't the most popular. But that doesn't really matter for the movie
I think they've said they were hoping Spidey was going to be the face of the second generation MCU, though I guess that's contingent on whether Marvel will still be in the licensing deal. Captain Marvel will probably be the runner-up.
I hope the deal signing can be taken as an indication that they're happy with how the movie is turning out.
Ok thx. Name sounded familiar so my first suspicion was correct ;)
Right. I know most of the MCU weren't that popular until the movies made them popular, so I'm sure this movie will be a big success.
Good for her, but it always bums me out to see a great actor get locked into one of the franchises forever.
I hope her performance is good and people, myself included, enjoy the character. Seven movies with a hero that basically has no previous mainstream exposure is a lot.
Is she stuck on that salary for seven films minus bonuses. That would suck, not really, still millions but you know, Marvel/Disney are raking it in and she is probably the new tent pole fixture.
Damn, putting a lot of faith in the team to make a good first movie that does well in the box office.
I very much doubt that.
They were never going to make a character they dont fully own the face of their franchise.
And the character's name is literally Captain Marvel. Making her your mascot character is a no brainer.
Given her power set and personality, it does make sense for her to be the new Captain America of the MCU. Feige must be impressed with her work and she's also an academy award calibre actress so it's a leap of faith that's perfectly logical imo.
I don't think newer actresses will be willing to accept these type of roles as more women wants to direct or start their own production companies. Theron, Garner and Berry are in their 40's or 50's and they are doing all kind of stuff including action movies.
Think of it as a deal similar to what Conor McGregor possess in the UFC which is 3 million downside payment for a fight + % of the merchandise + PPV buyrate. It can add up to an amount of 40-50 million dollars for a fight, which is possibly what he will get for the UFC 229 gong show. :p She doesn't have the history to command a 20 million downside payment and there's very few stars who will get it such as Dwayne Johnson or Jennifer Lawrence before her string of underwhelming movies.
No, they said Spidey will lead us into the next generation. He won't be the face - that's Carol & T'Challa.
The next 3 years will be very interesting with what they do with Spidey. If rumors are true and Norman Osbourn will be a big player in the MCU, how does that affect the Sony deal and how long do they keep him in HS?
It'll likely go up as she appears in more movies. It wouldn't really make sense for her to be in her fourth movie and still only making 5m while other cast members are making 15m. That's how much Scarlett is getting for the Black Widow movie. But getting 5m from the start is big. Gal Gadot only got 300k for Wonder Woman, which was the same that Chris Evans got for the first Captain America.
The Age of Carol has arrived. Slayven stays losing.

Its going to 100% be T'Challa. He's the next generation's Tony Stark.
If not for the MCU blackout as part of Avengers 4, I'm sure we would have gotten an announcement for the sequel already.
God what I wouldn't give for 7 years of job security.
And not even as a high paid actor, just any job.

She's going to get some money when she shows up for a few days of shooting for her cameo in Kamala Khan's first movie.
