Deadpool and Wolverine is coming out in theaters this week, and it’s been difficult to avoid spoilers since the first screening reactions went online. It doesn’t help that Marvel itself spoiled the return of a major supporting character in the final trailer for the film. However, that reveal may have been made in part because Marvel Studios’ Kevin Feige doesn’t believe that spoilers ruin the experience of seeing a MCU film.
“[It’s] very hard [to keep secrets] and almost impossible nowadays,” explained Feige during an interview with Coming Soon. “And I think I realized a long time ago that it’s great to keep secrets. And the only reason we want to keep secrets is to maintain surprises. So that an audience, that theater full of people, can discover things for the first time and have that adrenaline rush of a surprise for the first time.”
Feige went on to contend that any preconceived notions about spoilers slide away once the audience is in the theater and watching the film alongside a like-minded crowd.
