Brie Larson, Iman Vellani, & Teyonah Parris Cover Entertainment Weekly
The cast of The Marvels is on the cover of the new digital issue of Entertainment Weekly. Brie Larson, Iman Vellani, and Teyonah Parris are all featured on the moveable cover to promote the next film to be released in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Highlights from their interview are below.
Parris on the upcoming release of the film: “I’m excited that the MCU has three lead women, all from very diverse backgrounds, and they’re all baddies in their own way. It’s going to be really exciting just to see these smart, fun, intelligent, and troubled women find their way.”
Larson on Carol’s struggle with working as a team with Kamala and Monica: “I understand that feeling of being afraid to let go of control, of being afraid of passing on responsibility to others. You almost want to take on all of the burden yourself. So, I think this is an incredible metaphor for learning how to be in a team. It’s a very clear example that no one person can do it all. You need all kinds of skill sets, all kinds of people with different viewpoints and different backgrounds in order to save the world.”
Vellani on working with director, Nia DaCosta:” She has a really calm vibe, too. These movies are not easy to make at all. There’s like a million, bajillion little moving pieces. She and Mary [Livanos] did such a great job to keep morale high. Even if there were days where they wanted to rip people’s heads off, they would never show it and never put their stress on anyone else.”
