The 82-year-old award-winning director, Ridley Scott, has spent his entire career making iconic movies in a variety of genres. However, he hasn't exactly had a chance to direct superhero or comic book movies before. This is probably why his most recent statement on the said movies is generating a lot of discussion online.
"Why don't superhero movies have better stories?"
Scott is a prolific director with several dozen big films to his name. His most recent work is The Last Duel starring Jodie Comer, Adam Driver, and Matt Damon, in a film that's set in medieval France. Meanwhile, Scott's next film, the Lady Gaga-led House of Gucci, will release in theaters on November 24, 2021. After House of Gucci, fans can look forward to watching Joaquin Phoenix take on the role of Napoleon Bonaparte on Kitbag for Apple TV+.
In a recent interview with Deadline where Scott was asked about his most recent projects, the Alien director had some pretty choice words when the topic suddenly transitioned to superhero movies.
