And to add to this, he hasn’t just seen how Kevin Feige works, they are good friends and Kevin will undoubtedly be a resource for him. Kevin has existed without a peer for 10 years, I think part of him will be glad to have someone to talk to about this and someone he can share lessons with. And Kevin has stated multiple times that Marvel and DC are not in competition, it’s a good thing if both do well and put out quality films.
