Brie Larson, the actress known for portraying the role of Captain Marvel in the MCU is out here with a new miniseries, and this time, the fans love it. Starring in the role of Elizabeth Zott, Larson starred in the Apple TV+ miniseries Lessons in Chemistry and it was more than just chemistry for her.
With how “immersive” the experience was, Larson revealed in an interview that she had to recall what year she was living in and who her real identity was. With the show being based in the 1950s, it seems that Brie Larson had quite an amazing experience while working on the sets of Lessons in Chemistry!
Brie Larson Forgot What Year She Was Living In While Filming!
With Larson having problems with Tom Hiddleston alongside trying to maintain a career with the MCU, the actress has had quite an adventure throughout her career. From starring in movies like Kong: Skull Island to Captain Marvel, the actress has found quite the fame.
In 2023, the actress starred in the role of Elizabeth Zott who joins a cooking show on TV and teaches the woman more than cooking! Being based on the novel of the same name by Bonnie Garmus, the series is a historical drama and Brie Larson was mesmerized by it. In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the actress talked about how “immersive” it was.
“It gets a little confusing though. For me there was one moment where I had to just like lay on the floor and go like ‘I’m actually in downtown Los Angeles. My name is Brie Larson. It is 2023. It is not whatever’ cause I started to get confused”
She further continued,
“Because it’s so immersive in that way where everybody’s dressed so differently. There’s nothing about it so you feel really transported (in a good way) but then when you’re in a sound stage all day, I think it gets a little confusing”
With a high rating of 8.5/10 on IMDB and an equally awesome rating of 85% on Rotten Tomatoes, Brie Larson’s Lessons in Chemistry has received rave reviews. On the other hand, her character of Captain Marvel hasn’t been received with a warm welcome and that’s why, Larson’s not too happy about her MCU role.
Brie Larson Is Not Too Happy About Captain Marvel
Not to twist the words of the actress, Brie Larson is indeed happy to be Captain Marvel in the MCU. She is not just happy about the reception and the hatred that fans have been giving her. As per MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios (via /Film), Larson stated that she had portrayed so many characters that she got confused.
“I realized that if you’ve been acting since you were seven, there are a lot of stories inside you that are not actually yours. It’s a blessing to play all these different characters, but it’s also confusing. And overwhelming.”
In another interview with Entertainment Tonight, Larson revealed that,
“I don’t want Marvel to come for me, but there is something. There is definitely something to answer your question that I would want to say, but I am not going to do so.”
The actress was last seen in Lessons in Chemistry which we mentioned about earlier. With rave reviews and an iconic story, the 2023 series is available to stream on Apple TV+ in the U.S.
