Carrie Coon voiced Thanos’ adoptive daughter Proxima Midnight in Avengers: Infinity War and she even provided the facial motion capture work for the role. But in Avengers: Endgame, an alternate (and silent) version of Proxima Midnight isn’t played or voiced by Carrie Coon. A new interview with Coon’s husband Tracy Letts suggests that Marvel actually invited Carrie Coon to return and reprise her role as Proxima Midnight in Avengers: Endgame, however, reportedly, the actress asked for more money in accordance with the success of the first movie and Marvel decline to honor her request. And so, Coon walked away. If it’s true, we salute this bold move.
Here’s what Tracy Letts says happened, which we saw via People. “I believe [Marvel] went to her for the second one, and they asked her to be in the second one,” Letts said on The Ringer‘s The Big Picture podcast. “And she said, ‘Well, the first one is the most successful movie ever made. Are you going to pay me any more money?’ And they said, ‘No. We’re not going to pay you any more money.’”
And so, Letts reveals Carrie Coon walked away from Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame after Avengers: Infinity War, “She said, ‘Wow, you’re not going to pay me any more money, then I don’t think I’m going to do it.’ And they said, ‘Well, you should feel yourself fortunate to be part of the Marvel Universe.’ So she declined.”
Damn. That is the tea. We’re glad to hear this story about Carrie Coon, Marvel, and Avengers: Endgame. We feel like “Are you going to pay me any more money?” is a phrase that’s hard for anyone to say, especially a woman. And although Coon is in a fortunate position that she is able to walk away if the answer is no, it’s extra important for people in her position to fight for the idea of fair compensation. The recent Actor and Writers strikes remind us how tough it is in Hollywood. It may seem like everyone is a big star, but many are just trying to survive. Sharing the wealth and ensuring everyone is paid their worth could not be a more critical issue.
Letts concludes the tale of Carrie Coon’s Avengers: Endgame saga by saying, “We would’ve made a bigger deal out of this, but it would have involved us watching the movies and we weren’t going to do that.” Okay, mood.
There’s some fascinating dramatic irony that after Coon refused to return, Proxima did reappear on screen in Avengers: Endgame, but this time, she was silent.
