Jodie Foster takes aim at big-budget studio movies, telling a magazine that they could spell doom for Hollywood in the way they shape the expectations of American audiences.
“Going to the movies has become like a theme park,” she told the magazine. “Studios making bad content in order to appeal to the masses and shareholders is like fracking – you get the best return right now but you wreck the earth. It’s ruining the viewing habits of the American population and then ultimately the rest of the world,” Foster continued. “I don’t want to make $200 million movies about superheroes.“
Foster made it clear that if she were to direct a superhero movie, it would have to be one with a compelling story and character at its core. “Rather than doing a brainless action film, it would have to be about a character with a really complex psychology.“
