Kevin Feige On 'Avengers 5' And 'Deadpool 3'
Kevin Feige is currently one of (or maybe the most) powerful executive producers in all of Hollywood, thanks to the Marvel Cinematic Universe that he was responsible for launching in 2008 with the first Iron Man film. The franchise has indeed grown and evolved, starting with phase one with the solo films consisting of Captain America: The First Avenger, Thor, The Incredible Hulk (yes, fellow readers, the 2008 film IS canon), and the first two Iron Man films all culminating with the first Avengers film. That launching not only kicked off The Infinity Saga but made all the Marvel characters a part of pop culture and iconic to general audiences everywhere.

Was It Really Possible For Steve To Live The Nice Quiet Life 'Endgame' Suggested?
Avengers: Endgame is one of the best movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It served as the final farewell to not just that chapter in the MCU, but also to some of our favorite founding Avengers. Firstly, we said goodbye to Natasha Romanov, aka Black Widow, when, despite the best efforts of Hawkeye to stop her, she sacrificed herself to help the team acquire the Soul Stone so they were able to assemble a new Infinity Gauntlet and bring back all the people Thanos had snapped out of existence

Anyone else have this problem with Marvel's What If...?
Y'all been watching What If? There's a few episodes out so far, all taking place in different parallel versions of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, telling new alternate stories, and for the most part I've enjoyed them. However, there's one element of the show that I find oddly distracting. I'm not sure if anyone else has felt this way, but when I've been watching the show, I can't stop thinking about the casting.

Step Aside, Boys: Check Out These 10 Awesome Female Supervillains
"The female of the species is more deadly than the male" — Rudyard Kipling While many comic book fans (or even non-fans) would think the male species is the most dangerous and deadly out of all the comic supervillains, there is a lot of evidence to support the complete opposite. It's very likely that Rudyard Kipling was right by saying women are more deadly than men and we have several examples from multiple comic publishers to prove it. Whether it be seduction, mutant powers, superhuman abilities, magic, or being just plain evil, there are plenty of women within the popular comic book universes that prove to be just as evil, if not more evil, than their male counterparts.

'Suicide Squad' Mistakes: Did Continuity Errors Damage Harley Quinn's Origin?
Harley Quinn was no doubt one of the brightest stars in Suicide Squad back when the film was released in 2016. As a character, she's manipulative, funny, psychotic, and unpredictable... which is exactly how Harley should be. Margot Robbie knocked it out of the park with her performance as the former psychiatrist turned criminal sidekick. So much so that Robbie has reprised the role of Harley Quinn two more times with Birds of Prey in 2020 and The Suicide Squad in 2021.

'What If..?': Six Characters Who Could Become The Avengers In The Aftermath Of Episode 3
The third episode of Marvel's What If..?, set in an alternate version of the game-changing 'Fury's Big Week', delivered the series most shocking scenario so far, as four of the five founding Avengers were brutally murdered by a grief-stricken Hank Pym before the team had a chance to form. Worse still, Loki, who originally arrived just to avenge Thor's death, decided to stay on Earth and take over the planet. Luckily, all hope wasn't lost, with the episode's closing scene suggesting that Fury may have been planning to build a new team and take back the planet.

'What If..?': Revisiting The Events Of The REAL 'Fury's Big Week'
While the second episode of What If..? was set in a timeline in which things are arguably better than the original, episode three dives into a world where things are probably going to turn out much worse. The third episode of Marvel's Multiverse hopping animated series focused on a rather tragic timeline in which four of the five original Avengers are murdered before the team has a chance to form.

DC/Marvel Crossover Not Out Of The Question According To Kevin Feige
Crossovers are popular in superhero universes. Fans love to see their favorite superheroes cross paths with another one of their favorite superheroes. It is a joy to see them talking and acting around each other, and combine their powers together. They make for a mega exciting storyline that fans look forward to. Crossovers do happen frequently among superheroes in their respective universes, but what if there was an epic crossover event between universes? For example, a Marvel and DC crossover.

Fantastic Four Casting Process Teased By Kevin Feige
One of the franchises that has had the hardest time reaching its full potential and expectations within the superhero movie genre is the Fantastic Four. While the superhero team has long been a cornerstone of the Marvel Comics, their film adaptations have been built on a less than sturdy foundation. Since their debut in 2005, however, the bar has been raised in the hero genre thanks to the massive success of the MCU under the leadership of Kevin Feige.
