Feige, the architect of Marvel’s transition from a flailing comic book company into a film powerhouse that was sold to Disney for $4 billion in 2009, is said to have vented his unhappiness to Horn and Disney CEO Bob Iger earlier this summer. The reorganization was put into effect last week, according to sources.

i've got nothing against Fiege, but to pretend like Perlmutter's hands weren't all over the MCU from 2008-2019 is insane and a huge part of what made it so profitable. his micromanaging made everybody billions while DC was unable to get butts in seat for the first Superman/Batman movie or the justice league.


also if you ever want an interesting read, see Perlmutter's legal problems where he and his wife were accused of violent threats but exonerated through the innocence project.

he's actually a huge backer of the innocence project now because of what they did for him.
