Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, the actress explained why she’s happy to be working with the studio behind Iron Man, Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy and more. “That’s one of the things that I’m so impressed with at Marvel — is that although they are this big company, at the same time their stories are really character driven and they care a lot about the journey of these characters and they understand that these films are a metaphor for the things that are very real in our lives.” Larson explained.
“There’s been a lot of talk about it, they’re really open to the things I have to say about it, and it’s super collaborative. It feels like any other job at this point, which is really wonderful,” she concluded.
