Marvel Studios has tinkered with its plans a lot in recent times. Sometimes because of indecision, sometimes out of real necessity. The biggest recent example is moving on from Kang as the Multiverse Saga’s big baddie and instead going with Doctor Doom… played by Iron Man veteran Robert Downey Jr because things are mostly bleak right now. On the TV side of things, meanwhile, we’re still stuck with head-scratching shows like Vision.
Inverse recently had the chance to sit down and chat with Feige for a bit, ahead of Deadpool & Wolverine’s record-shattering theatrical release. The whole conversation is quite informative and well worth a read, but one bit stands out regarding the studio’s recruitment process.
In most cases, big Hollywood studios either accept pitches or have an internally developed idea they want to convince filmmakers and showrunners to tackle. In the case of Vision (or White Vision, as fans are differentiating the character from the regular, dead Vision), it appears that Marvel honcho Kevin Feige himself went after Terry Matalas after he loved the way in which Star Trek: Picard was wrapped up in its third season.
