I think he meant it less like “I don’t want funny roles” and more like “I feel Drax is a character way too close to the standard wrestling character everyone wants me to play” and he probably wants more “heart” in his roles… Fan of the MCU or not, a superhero movie isn’t exactly what you think of when you think “serious”. And that’s not to say they can’t be, but I think an actor who basically ‘launched’(and yes I know it’s not what started or solidified his career but it is one of his biggest roles of it this far) with that character might not want to feel like “RDJ and Tony Stark” his whole career.

touche, but its already done. :) My first choice was the raven, but it wouldn't let me post it. If I had realized it would get this popular this fast and have recommendation for a short film I'd never seen, Id have left it as it lies.

It's called "two for them, one for me" As in, two for the studios, one for yourself, an indie film. Have to pay the bills and keep your name in the minds of executives, not to mention keep your agents and managers paid by taking paid work. Do you think any of them would be motivated to work for a client that just says no to big paycheques? They don't get paid until he gets paid.

I love a good guy Richie movie but others are right in saying they are not dark. I’m not trying to pile on. I’m just pointing out that you calling these movies dark comedy is what lead to all the confusion. Just look for crime comedies
