Kevin Feige's ideas FOX didn't follow
Before Kevin Feige came to help build the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he was a part of FOX as they were creating their X-Men Franchise. The producer of the franchise Lauren Shuler promoted Feige to associate producer for the first X-Men movie. After the big hit of the movie Kevin was later co-producer for X-Men 2 and then executive producer on the third X-Men movie before leaving the company to work for Disney.
In the interview Shuler talks about the sucess that Kevin Feige has created through the MCU.
"I’m not surprised—I’m just so proud," Shuler Donner tells Vanity Fair. This isn't surprising as she must have seen what Feige was able to do with the ideas he had for the comic book characters. This isn't the only thing that she talked about as she says that Feige was looking for the future of the X-Men.
Lauren continues the interview about Feige's views of the franchise after he had worked for the movies. "When we were developing the X-Men movies, he and I had laid out a plan where the X-Men franchise should go," said Shuler Donner, who has produced every X-Men film, including spinoffs Deadpool, Logan and the upcoming The New Mutants. "Fox picked another route. I’m not surprised he kept that [comic book] aesthetic, and decided he would take the Marvel world and join them together and make five-year plan after five-year plan."
With the Disney/Fox deal coming closer and closer, Feige might be able to achieve his old goals.
