Jamie Lee Curtis Posts She ‘Will Do Better’ After She Claimed MCU Was Going Through a ‘Bad’ Phase

As a seasoned lifestyle expert with decades of experience in the entertainment industry, I must commend Jamie Lee Curtis for her swift and sincere apology following her controversial remarks about the Marvel Cinematic Universe at San Diego Comic-Con. Her life experiences, both on and off-screen, have undoubtedly equipped her with a deep understanding of the power and impact of words, making her quick acknowledgment of her error all the more admirable.


Jamie Lee Curtis has recently apologized for her critical remarks about the Marvel Cinematic Universe during an interview at San Diego Comic-Con. In a conversation with MTV, Curtis – promoting her movie Borderlands – criticized the current Marvel film series, labeling it as going through a “tough” phase. Her words garnered significant attention and ignited numerous discussions online.

Curtis took to Instagram to express an apology and provide more context regarding the backlash she received. She shared a video she and Kevin Hart created at Comic-Con for IMDb, where Hart commended Curtis for her effective leadership on the Borderlands set. Recognizing the inadequacy of her earlier statements, Curtis seized this platform to reconsider them thoughtfully.

In response to Marvel, she labeled the discussions as ‘unintelligent’ and promised to express herself with greater care from now on. It was pointed out by Curtis that, given her role as a leader, it’s not appropriate for her to be overly critical of other artists or art forms.

Apart from this, Curtis revealed that she had discussed the issue with Marvel Studios’ CEO Kevin Feige. She promised to steer clear of unfair rivalry or create content solely for attracting views. Instead, she prefers to focus on producing beneficial and constructive work rather than getting embroiled in debates that might be contentious.

As a devoted admirer and follower, I’m sharing that Eli Roth, the director of Borderlands, recently conveyed his affection for JLC by writing, “Love you,” as a comment on one of her Instagram posts. This gesture underscores the solidarity and backing that JLC has from her peers during this contemplative period.

In a compilation featuring various famous figures, including Curtis, Joshua Horowitz posed the question about Marvel’s current phase at Comic-Con. The video captured Curtis responding in a manner that left her peers puzzled and chuckling. Unlike many others who acknowledged Marvel being in Phase 5, Curtis’ reaction stood out as unexpected.

In July 2022, Curtis mentioned to PEOPLE that if given the chance, she might be open to starring in a Marvel movie. This conversation took place after a playful online disagreement between Marvel’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and her film Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Although she hoped Marvel might consider collaborating with her, she wasn’t sure if they would approach her due to the controversy she had ignited. However, she made it clear that she was a potential collaborator and, if an appealing role presented itself, she would be eager to work with Marvel. She emphasized that she would weigh her decision carefully, stating that such an opportunity rarely comes her way.

Additionally, Curtis voiced her doubts about Marvel finding a suitable role for her age, as she felt it might be difficult to envision Marvel casting such a part. However, on August 9th, audiences can catch Curtis in her upcoming film, Borderlands, where she shares the screen with Ariana Greenblatt, Cate Blanchett, Jack Black, and Florian Munteanu, which is set for release in cinemas.
