Who Were The Three Musketeers Behind The Marvel Studios Disney Coup?

Bleeding Cool has already reported on the coup at Marvel Studios that saw Kevin Feige take the film making side of Marvel away from the influence of the comic book publisher which birthed it, creating a Feige Island that reports directly to Disney instead.

We are still waiting to see the effects of this, if any, to Marvel's publishing line.

But what other figures were significant on Marvel Studios' side? Who has joined him on said island?

Well one was Victoria Alonso, promoted from visual effects chief to executive vice president of physical production. Before the coup d'etat she was threatening to leave if she wasn't promoted. Now she has been promoted.

Then there's Louis D'Esposito, described as an all round nice guy, a whiz with the figures and a great producer, if not the plotlines.

These are your Three Musketeers of the coup. But as D'Artagnan is Jeremy Latcham, SVP, Production & Development, who also looks to gain a lot from the deal…

Especially if Feige is, as rumoured, in pole position to take Alan Horn's job at Disney.

But someone who may not gain is Nathan Moore, producer on Winter Soldier and Civil War, who ran the Marvel Writers Group programme that frustrated Kevin Feige, but found Guardians Of The Galaxy.

Apparently Kevin is not his biggest fan…
