With him being named the "Most powerful person in entertainment" by Hollywood Reporter (in which Kevin Feige ended up at #6 out of 100), Disney CEO Bob Iger did an interview with them.

Of note regarding the topic of this thread, was the decision of firing of James Gunn (which he supports and haven't second-guessed it along with firing Roseanne Barr), and that once the Fox acquisition goes through they will let Feige oversee the X-Men and Fantastic Four properties.

"How is Marvel going to absorb Fox’s X-Men franchise? Is Kevin Feige going to oversee everything?

I think it only makes sense. I want to be careful here because of what's been communicated to the Fox folks, but I think they know. It only makes sense for Marvel to be supervised by one entity. There shouldn't be two Marvels.

So Deadpool could become an Avenger?

Kevin's got a lot of ideas. I'm not suggesting that's one of them. But who knows?"
