Nobody expected comic book adaptations to make money in the early 2000s. For this reason, the rights of comic book productions were transferred to very funny money. Under Kevin Feige’s leadership, Marvel had great success. On the other hand, DC could not find a leader for a long time.
Warner Bros., which has not had a single chief executive until now, has recently merged with Discovery. This merger caused the pieces to move behind the scenes. As a result of this, DC has now determined a different management style.
Could Gunn have wanted Feige?
According to allegations circulating on the Internet, DC wants to include Kevin Feige from Marvel. James Gunn, who recently directed the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, had agreed to a role similar to that of Kevin Feige in DC. It’s hardly surprising, then, that Gunn wanted to include his former collaborator, Feige, on the project.
The source of the claim came from Above the Line writer Neil Turitz, who shared information from within the industry. Turitz claims that David Zaslav, the boss of Warner Bros. Discovery, wanted Feige to get behind the wheel of the DCEU. It was previously claimed that Feige wanted to switch from Marvel to DC. At the time, Feige and Disney management were having problems.
It is normal for DC to want Feige, and he attracted attention as a name that brought billions of dollars to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. On the other hand, since Marvel is preparing to bring many more productions to the screen and the big screen, it would be quite logical for Feige not to accept this offer. Do you think Feige would have succeeded if he took over DC?
