Last week, a major behind-the-scenes shakeup occurred at Marvel Studios with the departure of Victoria Alonso, who’d been one of the production company’s key executives since 2008’s Iron Man. While the initial reason for her exit wasn’t revealed, it was later reported that she was fired from Marvel Studios. Now a new piece of Marvel reporting states that Alonso’s firing had nothing to do with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but was instead tied to a different project.
