Marvel President Kevin Feige has confirmed that the Avengers: Doomsday script is still being revised during production. He also revealed that Michael Waldron, the creator and head writer of the Loki series, is now helping write the Doomsday script alongside Stephen McFeely.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Feige confirmed that the Avengers: Doomsday script is undergoing changes. He described “plus-ing” happening every day on set, saying, “It is amazing to watch because those filmmakers, those actors—both the ones who are playing these characters for the first or second time and the ones playing them for the 10th or 12th time—are the best in the world at it and know these characters so well.”
He added, “So if they have an idea, you want to listen to it, you want to adjust to it, and you want to improve it. I wouldn’t want to change that.”
When speaking to Variety, Feige said, “We’ve never started [filming] a movie without a full script.” He added, “I have never been satisfied with a script that we’ve had. I’ve never been satisfied with a movie we’ve released.”
Also, Feige plans to continue overseeing Marvel Studios for the next 10–15 years.
“That’s all I want to do. Marvel is a great way to do that for me right now, but I hope to make big movies for lots of people forever.”
According to Feige, after Avengers: Secret Wars there are plans to “reset singular timelines” and reboot the MCU.
He said, “Reboot is a scary word. Reboot can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. Reset, singular timeline — we’re thinking along those lines. X‑Men is where that will happen next.”
Directed by Russo brothers from a screenplay by their longtime collaborator, McFeely. Newton Thomas Sigel (Bohemian Rhapsody, X-Men: Days of Future Past) will be the cinematographer.
