Jeremy Allen White, known for his role in "The Bear," had a meeting for a movie with a Marvel-like feel but it didn't go as planned. According to a profile in GQ, White went in with a nonchalant approach, questioning why he should be part of the film which led to a terse exchange with the executives. Despite not getting the role, White expressed no regrets and showed some respect for the superhero genre, acknowledging the good filmmakers and actors involved in such projects.

White continues to garner attention, particularly after his Emmy-nominated performance in "The Bear," which is set for a third season, and his upcoming film "The Iron Claw" scheduled for release in December. Despite the appeal of blockbusters, White seems more interested in mid-budget films. With significant changes happening in both the DCU and MCU, White’s career path seems to focus on projects that resonate more with his personal interests rather than chasing superhero fame.
