Chris Hemsworth is busy promoting his upcoming movie, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. In several interviews, the actor has opened up about playing Thor in Marvel movies and the failure of Thor 4, aka Thor: Love and Thunder. The Extraction star has now reacted to Martin Scorsese’s criticism of Marvel movies.

In 2019, Martin Scorsese said that Marvel movies are “not cinema”. The director told Empire in an interview, “I don’t see them. I tried, you know? But that’s not cinema. Honestly, the closest I can think of them, as well-made as they are, with actors doing the best they can under the circumstances, is theme parks. It isn’t the cinema of human beings trying to convey emotional, psychological experiences to another human being.”

The Thor actor told The Sunday Times, “It felt harsh. And it bothers me, especially from heroes. It was an eye-roll for me, people bashing the superhero space. Those guys had films that didn’t work too, we all have. When they talked about what was wrong with superheroes, I thought, cool, tell that to the billions who watch them. Were they all wrong?”
