Even probably the most devoted Marvel followers could not know of starlet Jenna Ortega‘s position within the MCU — one thing the Dying of a Unicorn actress not too long ago mirrored on as a seemingly one-and-done expertise.
In an interview with Leisure Tonight alongside co-star Paul Rudd, the Scream actress responded to the reporter’s hopes of her becoming a member of the blockbuster franchise.
“I did it as soon as,” Ortega stated of being within the MCU. “It was one of many first jobs I ever did. They took all my strains out. I’m in ‘Iron Man 3’ for a fast second. I take up the body, I’ve one leg and I’m the vp’s daughter.”
When Rudd, who notably portrays Ant-Man within the ever-expanding universe, countered that “Marvel is superb at like, sort of laying these bread crumbs, and so it’d very effectively be that you simply come again. That they’re going to create one thing for you, trigger they need to be so fortunate to have Jenna Ortega of their franchise,” Ortega wasn’t as assured.
“They even took my identify away. I rely that, then I transfer on,” she stated.
However all’s effectively that ends effectively, since Ortega has gone on to star in You, The Fallout, Wednesday, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and X. Subsequent up, she’ll be within the second season of the hit Netflix present centering on the macabre Addams household teen daughter, in addition to Taika Waititi‘s adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro‘s novel Klara and the Solar. Ortega may even be in The Weeknd’s debut function, Hurry Up Tomorrow, and future roles in talks embrace a Single White Feminine remake, The Gallerist reverse Natalie Portman and an as-yet untitled J.J. Abrams mission.
