Kevin Feige Explains Why The MCU Feels More Fragmented Than Before Endgame
We’re a week away from Deadpool and Wolverine, with Deadpool being added to the MCU proper, but what fate awaits the rest of the certain X-characters has yet to be seen. The movie has several characters from the X-Men film series from 20th Century Fox–now 20th Century Studios, as it was acquired by Disney. Dealing with the multiverse is never easy, but what about the Marvel characters already in play?
During the Deadpool and Wolverine press day, GameSpot asked Kevin Feige if fans should still be excited and ready to pick up the plot threads from projects like Eternals and Moon Knight–Marvel movies and shows that have been far more standalone than the past films.
“That’s at the core of the 85 years of publishing and at the core of our 15-plus years in theaters,” Feige said. “And I think there was a cadence for a while where the turnover is very quick in terms of somebody popping up in one movie and appearing in the next. Tony Stark was introduced in May and you saw him again in July of 2008. But then there are also the Tim Blake Nelsons, who showed up in that very movie in 2008. And we haven’t seen again until the trailer we just put out. So I think that again is the fun of what we’re able to do.”
