Kapow! Martin Scorsese’s daughter Francesca Scorsese trolled him by wrapping his Christmas gifts in Marvel paper after his vocal criticism of the franchise.

Stars as Superheroes

“LOOK WHAT IM [sic] WRAPPING MY DAD’S XMAS GIFTS IN,” the 20-year-old actress wrote via her Instagram Story, adding a laugh-cry emoji. The photo showed a variety of wrapping papers featuring Marvel characters, including Captain America, Spider-Man, The Hulk and Black Panther. One gift tag read, “To Dad From Francesca.”

The director, 77, shares Francesca with wife Helen Schermerhorn Morris, whom he married in 1999. He is also the father of daughter Catherine, 54, with ex-wife Laraine Marie Brennan and daughter Domenica, 43, with ex-wife Julia Cameron.

Martin made headlines in October when he shared his views on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, despite not watching the films. “I don’t see them. I tried, you know? But that’s not cinema,” he told Empire at the time. “Honestly, the closest I can think of them, as well made as they are, with actors doing the best they can under the circumstances, is theme parks. It isn’t the cinema of human beings trying to convey emotional, psychological experiences to another human being.”

The filmmaker attempted to clarify his remarks in a New York Times column in November. “Many of the elements that define cinema as I know it are there in Marvel pictures. What’s not there is revelation, mystery or genuine emotional danger. Nothing is at risk,” he wrote. “The pictures are made to satisfy a specific set of demands, and they are designed as variations on a finite number of themes.”

The 22nd movie in the superhero franchise, Avengers: Endgame, made cinematic history in 2019, raking in more than $2.7 billion at the box office. As such, the crossover flick — which starred Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and a slew of other famous faces — became the highest-grossing film of all time.

The MCU shows no signs of slowing down either. A Black Widow standalone film and The Eternals — starring Angelina Jolie — are set to hit theaters in 2020 as part of Phase Four.

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
