Actress Gwyneth Paltrow receives backlash after admitting that she has not watched the billion-dollar hit 'Avengers: Endgame.'
‘Iron Man’ actress Gwyneth Paltrow portrayed the famous role of Pepper Potts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and her chemistry with Robert Downey Jr. is one of the most spectacular things to watch out for in the franchise. She made her appearance last in ‘Avengers: Endgame,’ which she revealed she has never watched. This has stirred some extreme reactions from Marvel fans.
Paltrow appeared as Iron Man’s assistant and later, wife in the Marvel movies. For those who don't know, she wanted to quit the franchise right after the three ‘Iron Man’ films, but Downey managed to convinced her to do more films.
As per a Deadline report, she said, “To be honest, I stopped watching them at some point. I’ve never seen ‘Endgame.’ I can’t keep track of who’s what. But I probably should at some point.” She also spoke about how filming other Marvel movies was not the same as ‘Iron Man.’ She went on to explain that there was room for experimentation because it was basically like making a stand-alone film.
On social media, Marvel fans are not happy about her confession to not watching ‘Avengers: Endgame.’
A user wrote, "She stopped on the wrong one.” One of them, referring to her brand Goop, said, “She’s busy selling c**chie candles.” Another said, “White women be lying for no damned reason.” One of the netizens slammed and said, “Is this the reason she had a limited exposure at the end of Endgame?” Followed by another user exclaiming, “That’s annoying.”
One user questioned , “I never understand why actors do this. Don’t you want to appreciate all your hard work? Or does the checks already do that for them ?”
Only recently, Paltrow was seen expressing her annoyance at fans who kept asking her to return to Marvel.
