A recent bombshell Variety report reveals that Kevin Feige, the mastermind behind the MCU’s success, has been axing projects that fall short of Marvel’s high standards. This cautious approach follows recent disappointments, such as Ant-Man 3’s underwhelming box office performance and the high-profile issues with She-Hulk.
