HIGHLIGHT STORY OF THE WEEK
Exclusive: MCU Will Soon Have More Female Heroes Than Male Heroes
https://screenrant.com/marvel-mcu-female-heroes/
Speaking to Kevin Feige as part of a press junket for Ant-Man & the Wasp, he reflected a little on the changing gender balance in the MCU, and where he expects things to go.
"But, as the plan goes forward I think frankly we'll be ... you know, eventually I think we're going to reach a time where it's not just ... listen, it would be amazing to see all of our female characters the way we have seen ... most, never all male, but primarily male. I think we're getting to the point soon where we have so many great female characters that those are just our heroes as opposed to when are they all female, all male. It's just the Marvel heroes, more than half of which will be women."
