Kevin Feige Reiterates Potential Movie Adaptions After The Avengers

Marvel's Studios head honcho Kevin Feige, briefly goes over potential movie adaptions for lesser-known characters like Iron Fist, SHIELD & even Guardians Of The Galaxy.

Marvel's independent slate of films are growing, with two Iron Man films, The Incredible Hulk franchise reborn (and may be rebooted yet again), the debut of THOR, the period-piece Captain America: The First Avenger, the eventual hero team-up with The Avengers, under their belt, but what's next?

In this rather non-news interview with MTV, Marvel's head honcho rehashes the possibility of potential films after Avengers including Iron Fist, Black Panther, and even Guardians Of The Galaxy.



"I think what Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction have done with 'Iron Fist' lately is exciting," Feige told MTV News. "I think 'Black Panther' and Wakanda has some amazing potential to be a feature film. 'Doctor Strange,' as you've mentioned. There are some obscure titles, too, like 'Guardians of the Galaxy.' I think they've been revamped recently in a fun way in the book."

"I think S.H.I.E.L.D. could be it's own franchise. I think, frankly, 'The Avengers' is going to be told from that point of view more so than any of the other films at that point, so we're going to get an inside look [at how S.H.I.E.L.D.] operates."


With Marvel's Runaways developing quietly and with filming beginning early next year, I think we can assume it'll be the film following "The Avengers." If anyone didn't notice, Feige has basically confirmed that Marvel may be using The Avengers to usher in the Marvel Cosmic Universe, which was an exclusive by "MultiPurposePoni", one of CBM's editors.



DCMF - I honestly think a SHIELD movie would be unnecessary, and I'd rather see a SHIELD story told on the big-screen through a Captain America sequel. I mean SHIELD's origin is already being told in Cap's origin movie. And the only villain I could see their having is HYDRA, a Cap villain also. So why make a solo movie? What do you think?

I kind of want to see a New Avengers movie or an Ultimate Alliance, Civil War. Where not just the Avengers are teamed up but the whole Marvel Universe Is teamed up.

Sweet find DCMF! :) I could spend all day listing the movies I'd like to see Marvel do but any of the above would make me more than happy! I'm really looking forward to seeing more of S.H.I.E.L.D especially...I just hope they wear something a little more interesting than just the suits seen in the Thor trailer!

tea: I'm not a huge Guardians of the Galaxy fan but that is a great cast! Nice work bud! :)

what i want to see marvel do is.....thunderbolts movie as well as annhilation film.

i'm up for a iron fist movie if its got luke cage in it as well.

black panther,could end up being a crossover movie with him joining the avengers in avengers 2.

not a big fan of dr.strange,but could be real cool looking as well.

runaways,i'd rather see the new mutants or the new warriors.

@CaptainAmerica - Actually, the last punisher game was pretty good, though not a sandbox.

But combining some of your earlier commments, can you imagine a Secret Wars game that was part RTS?!?! Kind of like Brutal Legend. That would, quite frankly, make my head a splode.

Guardians of the Galaxy has so much potential. The Annihilation Wave is so EPIC. Nova and Drax also Quasar will kick ass. Let it happen MARVEL!

I really dislike Kevin Feige. Have you guys noticed that Marvel hasn't really changed when it comes to being cheap? Sure their making big budget movies like Iron Man but they are still cutting corners or going with the philosophy its there way or the highway.

Black Panther and Doctor Strange are obvious ones that should be high on Marvel's priority list for post-Avengers.

But an Iron Fist/Luke Cage/Heroes for Hire TV show would work better IMO than a film.

@ xbigvmanx

would you rather them let people interfere with the movies they want to make? that would make them no different than any other sell out hollywood production company.

tea: You need Nikki in that original Guardians run bud.:}

Also, he said he liked the way the series has been revamped lately. We won't see the old cast.

I've got the original series still from my childhood back in the 1700's. LOL

Poni: If you haven't went back and looked through any of the comments on the Favreau article from yesterday, you should. I think after reading all the comments, that there are only about 5 people on this site with any memory retention.

Dude, a sandbox Marvel game like Red Dead or GTA would be the best thing since Pajamas. Holy crap!!!

I also agree that a straight-up SHIELD movie is a waste. I think SHIELD should just remain as the "glue" and be interconnected in all of Marvel Film's movies. I also think the SHIELD theme could work wonders for a Punisher movie. You know how in later years SHIELD started hunting Frank Castle. That would be an awesome story.

Do we know for sure that "Runaways" is in production?

Now here are my fancasts for lead hero and villain roles in a few movies he mentioned.

Danny Rand: Jason David Frank

Steel Serpent: Ray Park

Stephen Strange: Patrick Dempsey

Baron Mordo: Leonardo DiCaprio

T'Chala: Nelsan Ellis

Man-Ape: Kevin Grevioux ((though he told me that he'd like to be Erik Killmonger......he may have been joking, though))

@Poni: I saw someone on Facebook posting stuff like "If Ryan Reynolds isn't available for "Deadpool", who would you pick?" and I'm thinking "Is this guy thinking that DC is going to go ahead and make a second GL before they can even get "Flash" going?" Because I read the article, but I still think that they're going to go forward with "Flash" and then make a second GL, followed by "Wonder Woman", "Superman", and "Aquaman". I wouldn't be surprised to see "Flash" show up a couple of months after the next "Batman" in theaters.

@Gmoney84: Yeah. It WOULD be a waste. It's the glue. Glue isn't what people see on the fore-front of things. When glue seeps out and take over: it pisses people off.

Ryan Phillippe would be perfect as Iron Fist and that's not an old photo it's from a recent interview and it's the cover of last months Mens Health.

My list of Marvel films:

1. Master of Kung Fu
2. Moon Knight
3. Six from Sirius
4. Power Man and Iron Fist
5. Brother Voodoo
6. Alpha Flight
7. Sub Mariner
8. Dazzler
9. Werewolf by Night
10. The Inhumans


Now wouldn't you fanboys and girls pay your hard earned and slightly depreciated dollars to see that list. For kicks I'll even include technically a non-Marvel franchise....
