She said,
“I have never watched a Marvel film ever and I’ve never watched a DC film. Yeah, news I know. It’s not [my thing] but I’m open to it, you know? It’s not like I’m just [opposed]. I’ve just never been like, ‘Oh I’m gonna put on this film. I’m more into like The Notebook. You know, let’s put on some romance films. I’m doing that stuff already. I want to see stuff that’s real.”
