Kevin Feige's Marvel Promotion Mean Some Major MCU Crossover Events

Kevin Feige , the producer behind the sprawling Marvel Cinematic Universe, has just been announced as the new chief creative officer of Marvel. Feige will also retain his title as president of Marvel Studios, prompting fans to start speculating what this means for the MCU, and whether he will use his remit as CCO to bring existing characters and elements from the movies into other Marvel projects.

What Kevin Feige's Marvel Title Means for the MCU

Feige has previously had no creative control over what happens outside of Marvel's movies, but his new position gives him all sorts of power: in addition to continuing his stewardship of the MCU, he will also oversee storytelling across Marvel's other mediums, including television.

Marvel Entertainment president Dan Buckley and Marvel TV executive vice president Jeph Loeb will report directly to Feige, and some optimists think this means fan favorite characters like Jessica Jones, Daredevil and Luke Cage from Marvel's now-defunct Netflix universe (or maybe some of the ABC Agents of SHIELD) could make future appearances in the MCU, either in the movies or on one of the new Disney+ shows.

More likely is that the new era of streaming Marvel shows, including The Falcon & The Winter Soldier , Hawkeye and WandaVision will interlock with the movies as the MCU heads into Phase Four , so we may well see Captain Marvel dropping in to see Scarlet Witch in suburbia, or perhaps have the rest of the Young Avengers introduced along with Kate Bishop on TV before they get their own big screen adventure.

Given that under Feige, the MCU was a series of interwoven stories in which crossovers and cameo appearances were the norm, it's reasonable to expect more of this in the future as he cohesively the overall creative direction of Marvel's movies, shows and comics. Balancing a wildly varying range of genres, tones and performances to form a cohesive bigger picture is kind of his specialty, after all.
