From the leaked email from a Marvel CEO disparaging “Female Movies” to the announcement of the first female–fronted Marvel superhero movie. (Warning: SPOILERS AHEAD!)
The email was a part of the WikiLeaks collection of the giant Sony Pictures email hack from the end of last year.
Though some attributed this to Perlmutter's reputation for valuing Marvel's finances above anything else, others maintained that the note was "small-minded" and that Perlmutter was ignoring the hundreds of male-led superhero movies that bombed as well.
Perlmutter and Marvel Studios declined to comment.
