While Curtis is open to working with the superhero film company in the future, she isn’t holding her breath to get a call anytime soon.
“Honestly, I can’t imagine that they will ever come calling because I kicked up some dust,” she admits. “But I’m a collaborating artist. I work with a lot of people on a lot of different things, and if the role was interesting and if I could bring what I do to it, of course I would [work with Marvel]. What am I going to do, say no? Of course!”
“But,” Curtis continues, “I would find it hard to imagine that Marvel’s going to figure out something to do with a 64-year-old woman.”
