Kevin Feige’s 'Star Wars' Movie Is No Jedi And No Survivor
It’s dead. Very very dead. But you probably figured that by now
This week was rather busy for Marvel Studios, with the season 2 finale of Loki most likely its series finale, and the release of the Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels, with only executives and crew available to promote until the very last minute.
