I was hired and fired like several times throughout my career there,\u201d said Burton, per deadline<\/em><\/span>. \u201cThe thing about dumbo<\/em>, is that’s why I think my days with Disney are done, I realized that I was Dumbo, that I was working in this horrible big circus and I needed to escape. That movie is quite autobiographical at a certain level.\u201d<\/p>\nIf there were ever a group of movies to break someone creatively, it’s pretty unsurprising that Disney’s recent live action remakes<\/span> would be at the front of the pack. Yet, Burton also noted that he just doesn’t feel all that compelled by the studio’s current slate of all things superheroes and Star Wars <\/em>shows. <\/em><\/p>\n\u201cIt’s gotten to be very homogenized, very consolidated. There’s less room for different types of things, \u201dhe said, before adding that it’s highly unlikely we would see him doing a darker MCU movie, \u00e0 la his 1989 Batman<\/em>.<\/span> \u201cI can only deal with one universe, l can’t deal with a multi-universe.\u201d <\/p>\n\n

Thankfully, there are no multiverses of madness in Burton’s upcoming Netflix series Wednesday<\/em><\/span>\u2014just plenty of the director’s beloved gothic imagery mixed in with Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Adams being her usual chaotic self. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
