Recently Ethan Hawke spoke to Indiewire where he was asked if Marvel Studios provides any freedom to its actors, The Black Phone actor spoke that the studio is very actor friendly. But giving this answer, the actor also stirred up the old controversy regarding the great director Martin Scorsese and Francis Coppola’s comments regarding MCU. He said that what the directors said was mainly applied to directors as their freedom is limited to some extent but speaking about actors, there’s no doubt that MCU treats its actors very well:

“That group of people is extremely actor-friendly. They might not be director-friendly, and that could be what Scorsese and Coppola are talking about. But they love actors.”

Further one of the key details that Ethan Hawke revealed is that since MCU took its run with Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man, Kevin Feige understood that actors have a major role in the success of the movies and the wide success of Iron Man was also due to the passion and hard work of Robert Downey Jr.:

“I think Kevin Feige had a great thing happen with Robert Downey Jr. and he understood that Downey’s passion was a large part of the success. When actors are excited by a part, audiences get excited about watching them. Feige understood the algorithm there, so they’re extremely respectful toward the process.”

In recent times, MCU has been one of the giants of the Hollywood industry and it can’t be denied that Kevin Feige is one of the prime and most important reasons for its success. His managing skills and special understanding of the franchise culture have led to the massive success of the superhero studio.
