Kevin Feige Confirmed for PGA Award

If you are a fan of comic book movies, you have probably heard the name Kevin Feige. He is the main man behind the highly successful Marvel Cinematic Universe. The head producer for the MCU will be receiving Producers Guild of America’s own David O Selnicks Achievement Award, next year on January 19, 2019, during the Awards’ 30th anniversary. The reasoning was as followed

As President of Marvel Studios since 2007 and producer of each of its 20 genre-spanning films to date, Feige is widely credited with creating the unprecedented and ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe,” the guild said. “His forward-thinking approach to production, diverse casting and globally resonant storylines make him one of the most exciting and relevant filmmakers of our time.


Marvel’s most recent films include “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” “Avengers: Infinity War,” and “Black Panther.” Feige is also responsible for “The Avengers,” “Captain America,” “Iron Man,” “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Thor,” “Doctor Strange,” and “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” Marvel Studios’ 20 films together have amassed more than $17.6 billion in global box office.

Kevin Feige set for himself one of the most ambitious tasks ever attempted in cinematic storytelling, and then over-delivered on it,” said Gail Berman and Lucy Fisher, presidents of the PGA. “What Kevin has accomplished with Marvel Studios is one of the great success stories of this generation. And now, with ‘Black Panther’ and the upcoming ‘Captain Marvel,’ Kevin has broadened our entire industry’s expectations for what tentpole movies look like — in front of the camera, behind the camera and in the audience.  We’re honored that he’s accepted the PGA’s David O. Selznick Award.” Variety



From all of us at WOBAM Entertainment, congratulations Mr. Feige!
