Nia DaCosta Unfairly Blamed for The Marvels' Box Office Failure
Despite the film's success in storytelling and character development, the director faces unwarranted criticism amid a lack of promotional opportunities due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.
- Nia DaCosta, the director of The Marvels, has been unfairly blamed for the film's poor box office performance, despite it being one of the MCU's best films.
- The Marvels was released amid the SAG-AFTRA strike, which prevented stars from promoting the film and having a star-studded world premiere.
- DaCosta has been targeted with rumors and hit pieces, including claims that she left the set before post-production was complete and that she 'bailed' on a cast-and-crew screening.
- Despite the negative narrative, The Marvels is praised for its emotional and entertaining story, captivating characters, and crowd-pleasing moments.
- DaCosta's previous work includes the award-winning feature Little Woods and the horror film Candyman, which tripled its budget at the global box office.
