Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige walked the red carpet earlier this week at the Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings premiere. As expected with highly anticipated MCU events, Feige gave several interviews. He addressed various things about the movie at hand, but he also answered questions about other MCU projects. Feige addressed the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer mystery. He gave fans a tentative timeframe for Avengers 5. And he confirmed rumors that Ironheart will debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Deadpool already joined the MCU, and you missed it
While you wait for Marvel to confirm the Deadpool 3 release date, we’ll remind you that Deadpool has already crossed the barrier into the MCU. He hung out with Korg (Taika Waititi), delivering a brilliant reaction video to promote Free Guy. We have two Marvel characters speaking for the first time outside of an MCU movie.
