Daily News for Marvel Movie

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has become perhaps the most successful franchise in the history of cinema, and Kevin Feige's comments about the X-Men and The Fantastic Four: First Steps makes the future look even more exciting. With the "mutant era" beginning in the MCU, and with a path toward Avengers: Secret Wars, it seems that there will be significant changes and evolution in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the near future. This is going to see a pivot to other characters from Marvel's history, and hearing Feige talk about his love for them makes this prospect even better.
Marvel Comics has been around for a long time. Founded in 1939 as Timely Comics, the publisher changed its name to Atlas Comics before truly entering the Marvel era in the 1960s. This era saw the first appearance of many celebrated Marvel heroes who would go on to shape the universe. With everything known about The Fantastic Four: First Steps, it seems that the 1960s setting will honor the comic book history that launched the heroes and placed Marvel Comics on the radar of countless readers in that era.

Kevin Feige's Comments Make The X-Men & Fantastic Four's Impending MCU Debuts Even More Exciting The Classic Marvel Heroes Are Clearly Important To The Future Of The MCU Close A new video celebrating 85 years of Marvel has been posted on YouTube, and Kevin Feige's comments about the X-Men and Fantastic Four give exciting context to the upcoming films. Feige says: "I often look back at the early 60s in the famous Marvel bull pit with Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko, creating Spider-Man, the Avengers, the X-Men and the Fantastic Four." He remarked on how Marvel was seen as "the House of Idea, it's called that for a reason." Seeing these heroes mentioned in the same sentence as Spider-Man and the Avengers bodes well for their future.
Truly, the noted heroes are enormously important to the franchise's future. However, comments like these make it clear that the plan is not simply to integrate those iconic heroes into the existing universe. Instead, they are clearly seen as iconic characters on the same level of importance as those that already exist. Following this, it makes sense that the studio is looking to set up the upcoming heroes as new tentpoles of the larger franchise. This makes their upcoming films even more exciting.

Why The MCU Hasn't Included The X-Men & Fantastic Four For So Many Years Marvel Character Rights Were Sold To Various Studios Close During the 1990s, Marvel was not doing well financially, and was looking for ways to survive. One of the most promising ways to do this was to have more films made featuring their characters. This would drive additional comic sales and elevate the heroes in the public eye. However, as a publisher, the comic book company had few links to make this happen themselves. To go down this path, Marvel began to sell the film rights to their heroes to then-existing studios. Heroes like Spider-Man landed with Sony, while others like the X-Men and Fantastic Four went to Fox.
Because of the film rights being sold, Disney could not produce films that used those characters after acquiring Marvel in 2009. As a result, their Avengers team was initially built of what were then considered B-tier characters. However, the success of those films greatly elevated public perception of heroes like Iron Man and Captain America. Marvel and Disney have done so well that the studio was able to purchase 20th Century Fox and absorb their entertainment assets. Following this, they have regained the rights to use X-Men and Fantastic Four characters.

2 The MCU's Late X-Men & Fantastic Four Debuts Can Make Them Both Even Bigger An Established World Provides Great Potential For The New Marvel Heroes Close While there have already been several attempts to put the heroes onscreen, the upcoming Fantastic Four can give fans what they've wanted. The same applies to the upcoming X-Men stories, which generally avoided comic-accurate looks throughout their long run with Fox. With an established franchise and some of the best and brightest producers and creatives in Hollywood, both the upcoming Fantastic Four and X-Men movies clearly have a great deal of passion and money behind them. This will allow for big, bombastic exploration of the characters and their abilities.
The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is perhaps the most exciting it has ever been.
While the special effects are certainly an important component, seeing these characters explored in an already established and beloved universe will also be extremely exciting. As the MCU grows more extensive, the potential for exciting interactions between beloved comic characters grows greater and greater. The future of the MCU is clearly set to depend on introducing these important characters, and the scale of their stories will surely be large and effective. Marvel clearly plans to use these heroes in new ways that honor their comics history.
The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is perhaps the most exciting it has ever been. With Robert Downey Jr. set to play the villainous Victor von Doom and with the introduction of so many iconic heroes to the franchise, it seems that love and care are being put delicately into shaping the MCU for the better. Videos that celebrate the Marvel brand only contribute to this, with proper recognition for the importance of so many of these characters being shown clearly and lovingly. The future for the Marvel Cinematic Universe is very bright.
