If you have seen the "substance" (daring, weird and incredibly weak body horror film directed by Coral Farget scored an impressive number of Oscar nominations During this season of awards), you probably can't imagine how wild kinds of Farget could translate something like, say, a movie of Marvel's film universe. Obviously, the house of ideas wanted to potentially launch the film "The Black Widow" in 2021, and Fargheat refused - because she had already worked on the "substance".

In an interview with Diversity About her important film, which earned Starwarr Demi Moore, her first Oscar nomination and her first competitive acting awards, when she took home a trophy of the "Golden Globes" in early 2025, Farger said she had completed "preliminary" talks with Marvel over Marvel. "Black Widow" because she was in the zone ... And she didn't want to find anything in the way of her process.

"I was holding so firmly during making the film and the difficult phase of post -production, when everyone wanted to do it less violently, less excessive, less joyful, less frontal. I knew I wrote this film to be more than - or at least at the same level as - what I condemn in the film, "Farget said to the exit, saying that generally society is" still madly forcibly for women and us Puts in boxes "and we eventually" create "our own violence against ourselves."

Unstable for the coral farget, The studies were, to set it to a kind, intimidated by her extreme vision of the "substance". This even led to a direct dispute between Farget and Universal, which initially thought it was distributing the film. According to Farget's interview with Variety, several directors - two men and one woman, were correct - in the studio they demanded quite convincing changes. "I think the film must have titulated something in this gentleman," Farget gave up.

The Farger, to be fair, seems to not resent the universal because of the fact that she asked her to change her film and she refused, ending their professional relationship (at least as far as the "substance" distribution goes). "I can't get into that too much," Fargeea said simply. "I think it was as simple as it wasn't for a good match for what they wanted to do. They felt, I think the gap was too big for them, as they sell movies (...) and I know that there are experiences that were, and they can be much worse.

Prior to the "substance" it premiered to consider the reviews of the Cannes Film Festival in 2024 (Farget's dream, as Varieties told), Mubi collected the film, and the rest is history. For such a dividing and difficult to watch a movie (in the best ways), to say at least, it is astonishing that the "substance" is such a great part of the prizes season ... and that is a testimony to the vision of Fargetate and its commitment to preserve it .

Being completely honest, it's probably a well What Coral Fargheat did not get involved in the "Black Widow" ... Because the browser of the only film on Scarlett Johansson's universe, Solo Marvel was an absolute chaos. It is certainly not Disney's fault that the Kovid-19 pandemic has engulfed the world in 2020 and closed society for more than a year, preventing people from going to China. However, According to the lawsuit, Johansson eventually filed against the mouse homeThe studio Confident Her film that will still get a theater edition instead of going straight to her commercial strimmer, Disney+, but the second is exactly what ended.

Disney and Johansson's trial was settled after only two monthsBut it was still an unbreakable look of the studio (which, in the process, basically accused Johansson of being greedy and called her behavior "tumultuous"), and it felt as it should be said that this experience would leave an author as a frog. In a pretty bad place professionally. In the end, Fargheat did not direct the "Black Widow", and now her passion project is nominated for the best Oscar image. So, unlike the "substance", this story has a happy ending.

You can now transfer the "substance" to MubiWhile the "black widow" is available to be transmitted to Disney+.
