At the time she received that promotion, Marvel\u2019s Kevin Feige said \u201c<em>She is one of the most dynamic, candid, and accessible executives in the industry, and we\u2019re thrilled that she\u2019ll continue to be by our side in this elevated role as we lead Marvel Studios into the future.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alonso checked quite a few boxes for Marvel, owned by diversity-focused Disney. She\u2019s female, a racial minority, and gay\u2026so all of that was going for her. Predictably, the diversity hire went ahead and turned Marvel from being a vapid comic book movie producer to a\u2026gay, vapid comic book movie producer.

Thanks primarily to woketardery, Marvel\u2019s box office is down, and so is the audience\u2019s goodwill. Marvel feminized Thor, gave us a hairy man-on-man kiss in the Eternals, desexualized everyone, and introduced new characters who are no fun at all because they are too busy whining about racism, sexism, and getting misgendered.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOut\u201d also noted that Alonso was behind the studio\u2019s drift toward wokeness, though it was supportive of that,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.out.com\/film\/victoria-alonso-marvel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">saying<\/a>, \u201c<em>Alsonso was known across the industry for her passionate fight for more inclusion and diversity in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Variety made a similar\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/film\/news\/victoria-alonso-marvel-exit-kevin-feige-1235561995\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">claim<\/a>: \u201c<em>Simultaneously, she worked to become a brand on her own \u2013 a rare openly LGBTQ person and woman of color in a visible leadership role, known for her fiery passion and outspokenness over diversity and inclusion in Marvel\u2019s storytelling.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even Variety hinted that Disney might have fired her in an attempt to get away from some of the bad press its woke movies have gotten it, obliquely noting that the firing might have because Disney is trying to dodge another \u201cunfavorable news cycle.\u201d In its\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/film\/news\/victoria-alonso-marvel-exit-kevin-feige-1235561995\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">words<\/a>:<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\">\n<div id=\"ld-9007-7028\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><em>Alonso\u2019s dismissal has raised numerous questions about behind-the-scenes workings at the prized content engine, and with them, another unfavorable news cycle as Disney CEO Bob Iger attempts to stabilize its parent company amid economic unrest.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>While the cause of Alonso\u2019s termination is unclear, the sources said, the decision was made by a consortium including human resources, Disney\u2019s legal department and multiple executives including Disney Entertainment co-chairman Alan Bergman (to whom all of Marvel Studios reports). Alonso\u2019s longtime boss and Marvel chief creative officer Kevin Feige felt mired in an impossible situation and, ultimately, did not intervene, one source added. Alonso was blindsided, another insider added.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Naturally, Variety went on to try to pin the blame elsewhere, saying that the real issue behind her firing was a dip in the quality of Marvel\u2019s\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/film\/news\/victoria-alonso-marvel-exit-kevin-feige-1235561995\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">CGI.<\/a>\u00a0In its words:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Numerous sources familiar with Marvel pointed to the tremendous pressure that the unit has been under over the past few years to deliver compelling content, not just to theaters but also in the form of new streaming shows intended to bolster Disney+.\u00a0 In 2021 and 2022, Marvel unloaded an unprecedented torrent of comic book adventures, releasing 17 titles \u2014 seven movies, eight streaming series and two TV specials \u2014 over 23 months.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>That breakneck distribution schedule, a product of the pandemic and the need to constantly feed Disney+, was not of Alonso\u2019s making. Marvel was far from the only studio tasked with delivering feature-level content for a newly launched streaming service. But it was Alonso\u2019s job to get each of those titles through Marvel\u2019s gargantuan post-production process. By the summer of 2022, cracks began to show in the company\u2019s seemingly impervious armor.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But what seems more likely: that Marvel was that upset with CGI that seems to improve with each movie, or that it\u2019s scrambling to win some fans back after alienating many of them with woke plots and woker character development, particularly since the exec that got the boot was the one behind that wokeness?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marvel Studios has already fired Victoria Alonso just ten months after patting itself on the back for promoting her to President of Physical, Post Production, VFX, and Animation (The PPPPVA).
