According to reports, Feige is the 2,785th person to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. Speaking about the honour, the Marvel boss told Variety: “You don’t expect to get a star on the Walk of Fame when you’re a behind-the-scenes person… That’s all my dream ever was — just to be a name in the credits of a movie, to have a spot in this industry, in this town that I love unabashedly, with no cynicism at all.”
Feige along with Reynolds and Jackman also attended a panel at the San Diego Comic-Con. Deadpool & Wolverine marks the debut of Reynolds and Jackman’s characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Feige joined Marvel Studios at the turn of the millennium and has been the primary producer on all Marvel films since 2007. Buoyed by the success of the MCU films, Feige became the highest-grossing film producer of all time. In 2018, Feige was nominated for the Best Picture Oscar for Black Panther, the first superhero film to receive the honour.
