Jodie Foster is ready for the world to get over its love of superhero movies.
“It’s a phase,” the actress told Elle in a cover story published Thursday. “It’s a phase that’s lasted a little too long for me, but it’s a phase, and I’ve seen so many different phases. Hopefully people will be sick of it soon.”
Foster, who made her screen debut at age 9 in Disney’s 1972 adventure drama Napoleon and Samantha, has indeed witnessed a great number of Hollywood fads. And while she clarified that she does appreciate some entries into the superhero canon, she also told Elle that they don’t touch her as deeply as other films.
