Part 3/10:
Kevin Feige firmly stands by Marvel’s commitment to diversity. He emphasizes that the MCU reflects the real world outside the screen, asserting, “Marvel is the world outside your window.” He points out that while the universe includes fantastical elements like Wakanda and Asgard, the core makeup of its characters and stories mirrors contemporary society.
In response to criticisms that Marvel has become “too woke,” Feige dismisses the notion, saying it’s simply an extension of the real-world diversity that exists in major cities like New York and Los Angeles. He suggests that the studio’s goal isn’t to virtue signal but to portray characters and stories that are representative of the world we live in.
