First off, the comment was from Bob Iger, the chairman and chief executive officer of The Walt Disney Company. If he wants Kevin Feige to have control over everything in the MCU, he can certainly do that. And he's already said as much.

Disney could've tried to acquire the rights to The Spectacular Spider-Man from Sony, but they didn't because they wanted a Spider-Man cartoon produced in-house. It's not a perfect analogy, but that is where we are now.

The fact that Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios are no longer involved with Marvel Entertainment is my point exactly. He's never been happy with this situation. There's been tension between Marvel Studios and Marvel Television for years now. With him producing series for the streaming service and the Marvel TV series dropping like flies, it looks like Feige won.

Now we have to ask ourselves - Why would Kevin Feige want to pick up Jeph Loeb's scraps (scraps that are incredibly hit-or-miss, no less) when he can just start fresh and make a bunch of series he has a hand in creating? The next seasons of The Punisher and Jessica Jones will probably be out within the next six months. At that point, I would be very surprised if either is renewed for another season. If a fourth season of Daredevil isn't announced very soon, it's probably dead, too.
