There’s no denying that Samuel L. Jackson is a company man. The actor told MTV News that Marvel films, unlike those of a certain competitor, pull off the delicate balance of pleasing fans while still appealing to mainstream audiences. Jackosn said,
“I think Marvel has figured out a way to make those movies accessible to the public [in a way] that DC hasn’t.” The Nick Fury actor says he is surprised that films based on DC’s beloved stable of superheroes aren’t greeted with a more enthusiastic response from audiences. He continued, “I don’t know why you can’t get [people excited about] Batman, Superman [and can’t get] people as juiced up to be a part of that.”
