Ben Affleck Says Marvel's Kevin Feige Is the Greatest Producer Who Has Ever Lived

Ben Affleck knows and recognizes talent when he sees it. During a recent interview with THR, the actor talked about Marvel producer Kevin Fiege, saying that he’s the greatest producer who has ever lived. You may or may not agree with him, but Affleck makes a good argument in his explanation of why he believes this.

"Fucking Kevin Feige is absolutely, you have to say, the greatest producer, most successful producer who ever lived. He's the only guy in the world who, if he told me, 'I know what the audience wants! This is what we're doing!' I would believe him 100%." That fucker knows his audience like no producer (ever), he’s a genius. Kevin is like a ringmaster at the circus, he knows exactly how much to wink at the audience, exactly when to pull at the heartstrings, exactly when to do the effects, how many jokes, what the sensibility, what the tone is. Because people didn’t know to run away from the pajamas or embrace it, or make it serious.”

I one hundred percent agree with Affleck, I agree with everything he says above! Feige has done some incredible and unprecedented things with the Marvel films that he’s produced. The guy is just brilliant and knows exactly what he wants.

Affleck previously worked with Feige on Daredevil, but at the time Feige was just a co-producer working is way up in the industry. Affleck's praise for Feige came while talking about working on the Daredevil movie, which he admits, "wasn't a very good movie."
