It Sounds Like A MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE Comic-Con Is A Very Real Possibility
Star Wars Celebration gathers lovers of that specific franchise on an almost yearly basis but is the Marvel Cinematic Universe's fanbase large enough to warrant a convention of their own?
Back in 2014, Marvel Studios held an event announcing its Phase 3 slate alongside a first look at Thanos wielding the Infinity Gauntlet. Aside from appearances at the likes of D23 and the San Diego Comic-Con, that's been it for them since but could we one day get a Marvel Cinematic Universe convention?
During a recent interview, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige revealed that it's something which has actually been discussed but it seems nothing specific has been put in place for that as of right now.
"Over the years there have been discussions about that. I think what we try to do occasionally in San Diego we’re very proud of and think is a fun tradition. That being said, I think [Star Wars] Celebration is pretty amazing. I’ve been to a few Celebrations and the idea of doing something like that … I think we have enough content, and enough fans, and enough ideas that we could easily do something like that, I’m just not sure where or when."
An event like this would no doubt be held in America but the time which goes into planning something like this is significant and Feige already has more than enough to think about without adding this to his plate too! Still, you have to hope it will happen one of these days, especially as it would be an incredible experience for fans where props, announcements, and big reveals could all take place.
