“There’s a great team around me and Marvel. Obviously, there’s a huge story group there thinking about how these things interface. But in terms of those guys, I mean, I grew up watching this stuff like everybody else, and it was so so cool to get to be there and see these individuals share a scene, and you know, you’re giddy, it’s fun, and that’s what these movies are about. But there’s also so much respect and affection that they have for each other, so knowing that that was also very important for them was super exciting for me.”
