“I had a meeting for a kind of Marvel-y movie, and I had an attitude,” White said. “I think I played it all wrong.” He said he told the Marvel executives, “‘Tell me about why should I do your movie,'” which did not come off well. “They were like, ‘Fuck you,'” White recalled, “and I was like, ‘Right on.'”
