But she'd always wanted to make an action movie, and finally did it with Netflix's The Old Guard, starring Charlize Theron as the leader of a band of warriors trying to do good in the modern world.

We talk about how Hollywood is all about overcoming no, and how working with one Marvel team — Cloak & Dagger — may lead her to another — the Black Cat and Silver Sable. Hosted on Acast.
