Brian Cox<\/strong><\/a> ain’t holding back on superhero flicks … saying guys like Hugh Jackman<\/strong><\/a> and Ryan Reynolds<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>are too talented for ’em — but, he can’t knock them for taking the cash.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The actor spoke at a panel for the Edinburgh International Film Festival in Scotland Saturday … and, he took a similar line to many Hollywood legends — saying cinema’s gone downhill in recent years, and Marvel’s at least partly to blame.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The way Cox puts it, the grandiose nature of the movies has led to a loss of plot … and, actors are treating it more like one big party than a real challenge.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

He specifically name-drops Hugh and Ryan here … saying “Deadpool & Wolverine” might make the studio a ton of money, but it doesn’t really move the needle creatively.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Cox says he thinks “Hugh Jackman can do a bit more” and so can Ryan Reynolds … but, they choose not to because they’re getting paid a ton.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

No knock on them for that, BC adds … so, he’s not saying Hugh and Ryan are doing anything necessarily wrong — just that they could be challenging themselves more.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Cox recognizes it’s weird he’s mentioning this since he’s done the whole superhero thing before … appearing alongside Jackman in “X2” way back in the day — but, adds even he forgets about that role pretty often.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Of course, Brian isn’t afraid to speak his mind … coming under fire multiple times this year for blasting<\/strong><\/a> fellow actor Joaquin Phoenix<\/strong><\/a> and slamming organized religion<\/strong><\/a> too — basically, Cox isn’t one to shy away from controversy.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Worth noting … ‘D&W’ has grossed<\/strong><\/a> over $1 billion worldwide already — so, Hugh and Ryan aren’t likely to listen to anything Cox has to say.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Bottom line … just one more star hating on the MCU — all while Marvel actors count fat stacks!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
