Stephen Dorff regrets having said those things about her supposed friend and assures her that he loves her
After causing anger by referring to Scarlett Johansson's career, actor Stephen Dorff explained that the interviewer took it at a bad time. Although he does not regret what he implied about the "garbage" that Marvel movies are and, particularly, the most recent one that is Black Widow, he wishes his partner Mahershala Ali the best, who will star in the reboot of the saga in which he collaborated.
In an interview with TMZ, actor Stephen Dorff regretted his comments about Scarlett Johansson. A few weeks ago, the interpreter had said that he was embarrassed by his former castmate that he had to participate in films that seemed "trash" like Black Widow. Now, he explains that he was not in the best of moments when he said that in an interview and that he loves her and he considers her an excellent actress.
I think that subject in England was obtained at a time when she was talking shit. And I felt a little bad for what I said, that sometimes happens. I love Scarlett and I think what was said was taken out of context. She is a great actress. I wish Mahershala the best with the Blade remake. He is an amazing actor and I wish him the best with that.
Dorff's comments were particularly disconcerting when he had participated, precisely, in the first Blade movie, an adaptation of the Marvel comic starring Wesley Snipes. The actor explained that he is not really a fan of superhero movies with some exceptions when they are more "dark" and mentioned Iron Man as well as Joker-91%, he also said he was excited about Batman.
Johansson never said anything about the comments. The actress, who in 2020 was nominated for two Oscars for two different films, is one with an enviable career. She is not only critically acclaimed and a crowd-pleaser, but she is also one of the highest-paid in Hollywood. Black Widow was no exception in both cases, as reviews highlighted her work and the film grossed more than $200 million at the box office despite the pandemic.
This is also not the first time that someone, filmmaker or actor, has criticized Marvel movies either for their quality or for the impact they have had on an industry obsessed with replicating the success of their franchise with more superhero movies. The strange thing in Dorff's case is that they were very precise about the actress, unlike others who generally focus on the studio system and the commercial character behind them.
Black Widow continues in theaters and on Disney Plus for an extra payment. Meanwhile, the Blade remake has only just landed its director and is still in pre-production. Although we first mentioned the ferocious vampires of the Marvel universe in Loki, it's still a long time until we see the two-time Oscar-winning actor use the iconic sword to end the bloodsucker threat in the Marvel continuity. the franchise.
