I only say this because I hate journalists more than I hate Disney. Was this some sort of actual statement or did some mouth breather at an event did the, "VANESSA, DOES FANTASTIC FOUR ADDRESS THE FACT THAT YOU'RE A WOMAN?" and get a ".. yes?" so they could write a clickbait headline?

Edit:

Here's the actual quote, but Entertainment Weekly omits what they asked to get the response.

"If you played an exact '60s Sue today, everyone would think she was a bit of a doormat," Vanessa Kirby says. "So figuring out how to capture the essence of what she represented to each generation, where the gender politics were different, and embody that today, was one of the greatest joys of this."

Still a red flag. Then again, it's fucking Disney and the fifth (?) swing at a Fantastic Four movie. You reach a level of red flag where extra ones don't move the needle.

Wow they really do look down on their grandmas huh? I suppose being caring and considerate of their man is equivalent to being a doormat as oppose to modern standards where the default is a self-absorbed bitch?
