![A tweet from Variety linking to an article titled "Chloe Zhao Defends Comic book Movies":
Chloé Zhao "loved" directing Marvel's "Eternals" and defends comic book movies: "It’s important to not write off stories because we don’t consider them high art."
“For any of you who love anime, I know you know this was a girl’s dream come true. Comic books are the western equivalent of [manga]. They are very different, but I live in the west, and that’s what I had access to. I do feel it’s important to not write off stories because we don’t consider them high art. The purpose of storytelling for me, humbly, is to create containers for people … to try to process what they need to process. Archetypes are such a great way to do it — and we see them in myths — is because it’s something we all share.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lr56eiw4wz6gelsdlpog3gqo/bafkreigqfrp652zjzvfcv6ewq4sqtna5pgbmmdayuqtkehuzhk3nsae6ry)
