Director Quentin Tarantino doesn’t like Marvel movies. So actor Samuel L. Jacksons responded to the director’s comments.
Surely you love Marvel movies. But this is not the case of the very famous director Quentin Tarantino. In an interview, Samuel L, Jackson spoke on this subject. And he doesn’t agree with the director at all. We tell you more.
Tarantino’s harsh criticism
On ABC, Samuel LJ ackson was a guest for the show “The View”. And in this interview, he had to react to Quentin Tarantino’s comments on Marvel films. The director spoke of the “marvelization of Hollywood”. And didn’t say anything good about it.
For Tarantino, superheroes now replace actors in people’s hearts. And the latter finds the observation a little sad. So Samuel L. Jackson was answering that. You have to say that he plays Nick Fury since 2008 but also plays in Tarantino films.
« It takes an actor to embody these superheroes, and the sign of a movie star has always been, what, the number of people sitting in front of the screen? What are we talking about ? It doesn’t add controversy to me to say that these actors are movie stars. »
The actor then took a very striking example to support his remarks on the Marvel universe. ” Chadwick Boseman plays Black Panther. One can not deny it, and he’s a movie star » he then said bluntly in The View.
Samuel L. Jackson can afford this because in addition to being in the Marvel universe he is also on the poster from Tarantino’s films. We find it for example in “Pulp Fiction”, “Django Unchained”, “Jackie Brown”, or even “Inglorious Basterds”.

Samuel L. Jackson: from Tarantino to Marvel
Quentin Tarantino doesn’t look kindly on Marvel movies at all. For the director, we often forget the actor to love only the character he embodies. He confided his vision of things to the Los Angeles Time some time ago.
« You have to be a mercenary to make these kinds of films. I am not a mercenary. They’re not movie stars, are they? Captain America is the star. Or Thor is the star. I’m not looking for a job. »
It must be said that the director’s style of film is very far from what we can see at Marvel. ” JI’m more of a Dating of the Third Kind typesomething bigger, with a Spielberg doing something epic for normal people, not just moviegoers.”
In short, Tarantino will not budge. But for his part Samuel L.Jackson is happy to be part of this universe of superheroes. It must be said that the latter gave the reply to big names in cinema thanks to this character.
It is also always films that have big budgets. So that gives great opportunities. If you like Marvel movies, right now you can see in the cinema the Black Panther movie! The second in the saga.
