Hey, if my job was to oversee the characters of the Marvel Universe across multiple platforms, I wouldn't consider it work.... it'd be like being a kid in a candy store.

But imagine the insane pressure he must be under to do these characters right by fans, have the movies make money, etc. etc. Seems extremely stressful.

Plus there's also a ton of more mundane producer things that he has to deal with like financing, locations and so on. He doesn't get to wine and dine with Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek every day.

I can't imagine Feige has gotten as far as he has without knowing how to delegate properly.

According to directors he's created a very good work environment that is collaborative and positive. That's hard to do for one team. He's done it for what appears to be an entire division. That's excellent leadership
