Why Joining The MCU Was 'Daunting' For This Actress

"It was totally daunting for me on some levels," Amy Aquino said about coming to the MCU with actors who have been a part of the universe for so long. "I was not familiar with the MC... I knew about the MCU, but I was not a fan ahead of time, and that's nothing against it. It wasn't my genre. [It] wasn't what I would go out to see. But I knew people absolutely just devoured it."

Of course, people were more than happy to fill her in and get her pumped for the role when she got the call. "So when I got the opportunity to do it, I was extremely excited because it is just this thing. It is, in fact, a universe — something I didn't realize until I got the job," she added. "And somebody said, 'Oh my God, you're going to be part of the Marvel universe.' And then [I said], 'What are you talking about? It's a franchise.' [And they said], 'No, it's a universe.' And now I am part of it. So that was very exciting."
