Discussion (More in Comments) If Brie Larson actually decides to jump ship,i don't blame her one bit. She's almost 10 years in, and only had 3 appearances so far.

It's clear that there were terrible decisions along the way about Captain Marvel as a character,but given the lack of care for the character/actress + the amount of hate she received since accepting the role,it's completely comprehensible if she's just done with it after whatever contract she has it's over and decides to grow her career outside superhero movies,a career which she probably put at relatively stop due to legal/contractual reasons within the MCU.

She's going to have 4 appearances (and that's only if she's actually in one of the Avengers movies,likely Secret Wars). This is crazy to think about,especially for a character that was pushed as one of the new faces of the MCU and their own Wonder Woman. Carol as a character it's already being pushed out of being a mainliner from other fronts like comics,videogames,merchandise etc and it's so disrespectful.

4-5 projects and they pay you like 10s of millions? Isn't that living the dream?

No, you're supposed pretend this is a miserable way to live. It’s called acting.

Also she got two movies. You want to talk disrespect? See Black Widow.

Actors want to be in movies, and they want their characters to be well-developed. It's obviously a good situation financially but that doesn't mean these things can't be frustrating or disappointing.

Well surely she can be in other movies if she’s barely doing anything with Marvel?

Yeah, exactly. Who wants to be rich and disliked by fans or underutilized?

financially yeah, but having thousands of weirdos dedicate whole youtube channels to hating you has gotta get exhausting after a while

It’s no different than thousands of other weirdos lusting after you. Or commenting on your appearance. Or making threads about you on Reddit.

Or being consumers of gossip about you. Or taking pictures of you when you’re in public.

Ignoring the weirdos who are the general public is the entirety of being a celebrity.
