After Variety reported that DaCosta ruffled feathers when she left ‘The Marvels’ during post-production, the director set the record straight: “They knew the entire time that I had an obligation.”
DaCosta’s The Marvels serves as direct sequel to Captain Marvel starring Brie Larson, and sees Larson’s Captain Marvel join forces with Teyonah Parris’ Monica Rambeau, introduced in the 2021 Disney+ series WandaVision, and Iman Vellani’s Kamala Khan, introduced in the 2022 series “Ms. Marvel.” Per the Variety story “Crisis at Marvel,” The Marvels cost approximately $250 million to make and is only tracking to open with $75 million-$80 million when it hits theaters on November 10.
“For me personally, it was that they moved the date of the film four different times,” said DaCosta regarding her departure. “They knew the entire time that I had an obligation—a green lit movie with people who were waiting for me. And I pushed that and then I pushed it again and then I pushed it again. Eventually we all knew that if pushes again I’m not going to be in LA to do the rest of this in person.
