Even probably the most devoted Marvel followers might not know of starlet Jenna Ortega‘s function within the MCU — one thing the Death of a Unicorn actress just lately mirrored on as a seemingly one-and-done expertise.
In an interview with Entertainment 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 once,” Ortega stated of being within the MCU. “It was one of the first jobs I ever did. They took all my lines out. I’m in ‘Iron Man 3’ for a quick second. I take up the frame, I have one leg and I’m the vice president’s daughter.”
When Rudd, who notably portrays Ant-Man within the ever-expanding universe, countered that “Marvel is very good at like, kind of laying those bread crumbs, and so it might very well be that you come back. That they are going to create something for you, cause they should be so lucky to have Jenna Ortega in their franchise,” Ortega wasn’t as assured.
“They even took my name away. I count that, then I move on,” she stated.
But all’s properly that ends properly, since Ortega has gone on to star in You, The Fallout, Wednesday, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and X. Next 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 Sun. Ortega will also be in The Weeknd’s debut characteristic, Hurry Up Tomorrow, and future roles in talks embrace a Single White Female remake, The Gallerist reverse Natalie Portman and an as-yet untitled J.J. Abrams venture.
