Kevin Feige, the visionary producer behind the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), has opened up about the groundbreaking journey of bringing beloved characters like Iron Man and Captain America to the big screen—and what lies ahead for the X-Men.
The Birth of the MCU
Feige, who has been instrumental in shaping the MCU since its inception, reflected on the risks taken with 2008's Iron Man, a film that launched a cinematic empire. "No one expected it to work," he admitted, "but Robert Downey Jr. embodied Tony Stark in a way that changed superhero films forever."
Captain America's Enduring Legacy
Discussing Chris Evans' portrayal of Steve Rogers, Feige praised the actor's dedication. "Captain America wasn’t just a hero; he was the moral compass of the Avengers. Chris brought depth and humanity to the role."
The X-Men's Future in the MCU
With Disney's acquisition of Fox, the X-Men are finally set to join the MCU. Feige teased, "We have big plans for mutants. Fans won’t be disappointed." While details remain under wraps, rumours suggest a fresh take on the iconic team.
What’s Next for Marvel?
Feige hinted at upcoming projects, emphasising diversity and innovation. "The MCU will keep evolving," he said. "New heroes, new stories—we’re just getting started."
