it's official Marvel Studios now has a “reduced production” plan., according to Disney CEO Bob Iger. And Marvel Studios chiefs Marvel Studios co-president Louis D'Esposito and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige admit it's been a “difficult time” for the MCU.
D'Esposito shares with empire“It's been a difficult time… If we [Marvel Studios] I just stayed upstairs, that would have been the worst thing that could have happened to us. We took a little hit, we're coming back strong. Maybe when you do too much, you dilute yourself a bit. We won't do that anymore. We have learned our lesson. Maybe two or three movies a year and one or two shows, instead of doing four movies and four shows.”
We hear a resounding: “Do you think?” Coming from the direction of the fans, but hey, better late than never. Hopefully, doing less of it and doing it well will actually be helpful for the MCU. Feige further notes, “It's nice to be able to rally behind a project this year. I'm much more comfortable being the underdog. I'd rather be able to surprise and exceed expectations. So it looks like the last year, which has not been ideal, has prepared us well for this.”
We don't know if we'd call Marvel Studios “the underdog,” but we're ready to see what Feige and the rest have in store.
