Brian Cox Says State of Cinema Is in ‘A Very Bad Way,’ Blames ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ and Comic Book Movies: ‘It’s Beginning to Implode’
Brian Cox, prolific film actor and star of HBO's "Succession," says the state of cinema is "in a very bad way," pointing the finger at Marvel and DC.
Cox went on to cite the MCU’s latest box office sensation “Deadpool and Wolverine” as an example, saying that, although superhero movies are “making a lot of money,” from an actor’s perspective, the work becomes “diluted” after so many comic book releases. In 2003, Cox starred in the highly successful “X-Men” sequel “X2,” back when 20th Century Fox still controlled the band of super mutant outcasts. He played William Stryker, a megalomaniac military scientist who ironically gave Logan his adamantium skeleton and created Wolverine.
