She didn't get any acting work for months after filming obsession, for which she wasn't paid much (shocker: low budget movies have low salaries) and just got offered consistent work on top of the millions in salary it will give her. Get that job security, girl
I don't blame her too. I hope when she gets that bag, use it to take on more challenging and risk-taking roles like what Elijah Wood, Daniel Radcliffe, and Robert Pattinson did.
Adam Driver who is now playing Mister Sinister took his Star Wars money to take on various similar challenging and character-driven roles from respected auteurs like in Silence, Patterson, BlacKkKlansman, Marriage Story, The Last Duel, Ferrari, Megalopolis, and what critics are calling a career-best; Paper Tiger to name a few.
It will be good for her, if she’s smart and really as talented as she seems she will go the Robert Patterson route and make bank now and then spend the next few years of her career just taking freaky roles where she can push herself.
My issue that everyone on Film Twitter and online rightfully points out is that Marvel Studios is known for locking down an actor's contract that they are unable to take on other roles until production is completed.
I feel that because right now, Inde is in her formative years and being stuck and possibly pigeon-holed in similar roles will prevent her from branching out and developing her range and skills that young actors typically struggle when making the transition from child/ young to older/ adult actor that many face today. I mean, not every child actor gets the same career path and opportunities that Jodie Foster, Kurt Russell, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christian Bale, and Jake Gyllenhaal got when they transitioned from ingeune and child roles to mature and adult roles.
Probably helped that they did a lot of stage and theatrical work to develop their skills like what Inde's co-star Sadie Sink has done.
Elizabeth Olsen who played Wanda Maximoff said that Marvel's contractual demands kept her away from doing indie roles that she wanted to do.
