A Marvel Studios rumor has fans down on their knees, praying that it’s true, especially when you look at this person’s past work in the franchise, and question how they could pull off an important milestone MCU film.
Jeff Sneider shared some insider knowledge that Jeff Loveness, known for his work for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, that he is no longer involved in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. His departure supposedly happened before the writers’ strike. However, all of this is still speculation until either Loveness or Marvel Studios confirms the news.
Given that fans weren’t all that confident that Loveness would be able to pull off a capstone MCU movie after Ant-Man 3 was criticized for its plot issues, they are understandably hoping and praying that the rumor ends up holding weight.
Regardless of whether Sneider said is true or not, fans celebrated immediately and hoped that Marvel Studios would hire a more competent writer for the Multiverse Saga’s epic finale. Some have also suggested getting a co-writer so there are more brains involved for this highly anticipated Marvel movie.
Aside from Ant-Man 3 and Rick and Morty, Loveness’ other notable work includes three Primetime Emmy Awards and 238 episodes of Jimmy Kimmel Live! While he does have a lot of experience writing for television, many are in agreement that his credentials weren’t enough to write the epic conclusion of the MCU. Both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame were written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, experienced film writers who worked on The Chronicles of Narnia films, the Captain America trilogy, and ABC’s Marvel series, Agent Carter.
