Brie Larson, actress of Marvel Studios, spoke candidly about her plans for the MCU while walking the red carpet at the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards.

All Larson could do when questioned by Extra TV about the status of her next Marvel film was shake her head and respond, "I don't have anything to say about that."

When asked if fans even wanted Brie Larson to play the role in the MCU going forward at the 2022 D23 Fan Expo, Brie Larson revealed her emotions regarding the reaction to her performances.

Given the constant criticism of her MCU role, it wouldn't be unexpected if Larson came away from the encounter a little bitter.

It appears that Marvel still believes Larson can guide the series toward a quick turnaround.
