“Someone’s always going to be upset about something,” she said. “When you’re [making] a movie like this and making it live-action, there are things where you’ll have to depart from the original material a little bit. People will be disappointed, but I think people will be overwhelmed with how exciting and amazing and how fresh and how true to the original this is โย but you can’t please everyone all the time.”
In fact, Fox says that she has, personally, received the opposite reaction.
“I’ve never had more people come up to me to tell me they’re excited about a movie than this one,” she said. “Nothing I’ve been a part of before has had that sort of reaction.”
