That a seismic shake-up was underway at marvel was apparent. The Sony as well as Disney standoff over Spider-Man, rumors that marvel Studios would take over marvel Television, as well as an ambitious MCU phase 4 line-up. However, what that shake-up was stayed a secret up until now. Kevin Feige, president of marvel Studios, was promoted to chief innovative Officer, meaning he will oversee basically whatever the business does. Of course, Feige’s hands were around marvel Studios’ projects, however the new title means that all the executives under the marvel Studios umbrella in film as well as television now work directly for him. together with the films as well as live-action television, marvel household entertainment as well as other animation jobs are likewise now under his purview.
Deadline, who very first broke the story, breaks down the reporting structure:
“Feige continues to report to Walt Disney Co-Chairman as well as chief innovative policeman Alan Horn as well as Co-Chairman Alan Bergman…. right here is exactly how the reporting structure will line up right under Feige: Dan Buckley will continue as president of marvel Entertainment, where Ike Perlmutter stays Chairman…. He will continue to oversee publishing creative/editorial as well as in that capability he will now report to Feige.”
Buckley will still report to Perlmutter with respect to publishing operations, licensing, as well as sales. marvel mainstay Joe Quesada will still report to Buckley as he stays a innovative lead, though his function is diminished somewhat with this move.
Of course, it makes sense that Kevin Feige would be promoted, if not to chief innovative policeman at marvel Studios then something similarly important. Feige is accountable for overseeing the most successful film franchise of all time. In just 11 years, he took a studio that seemed “too late” to the comic book movie celebration as well as made it the cornerstone of pop culture. (Regardless of whether Martin Scorsese believes marvel movies are cinema or not.)
