I don’t know. I had a long contract with them, and now we’re going to renegotiate.
Marvel’s Inadequate Conduct Toward The Cast
An insider reveals that some of the cast members paid $200,000 for Avenger while Robert Downey paid $50 million. This caused some bad blood among the cast. An insider even tells Marvel already begun to strong-arming and bullying on sequels.
A report of Nikke Finke discloses that Marvel already has threatened to sue or recast the members if the contracts are challenged. To this few cast member replied with a ‘Go-Ahead’. Further on Chris Hemsworth, in particular,was not happy with this treatment and thought of not returning for more Thor film. Further, the reporter wrote about Robert Downy she said:
“I’ve learned the Avengers cast are becoming united behind Robert Downey Jr who seen as the ‘leader’ – like ‘a big brother’ in the words of one rep – for all the younger actors in the ensemble.” One insider describe, “He’s the only guy with real power in this situation. And bll of steel, too. He’s already sent a message that he’s not going to work for a place where they treat his colleagues like sht.”
Deadline questioned Director About The Scenario.
The deadline asksJoss Whedonabout the drama, and while he defends Marvel, he says “I’m not going to comment specifically because I’m not privy to that sort of stuff and I don’t think it’s my place to talk about. In general terms, yes – Marvel can be very cheap, God knows. They can also be sensible and frugal. They have the minimal infrastructure, and they’re not heaping this money on themselves.”
