We look forward to learning, growing, and building a relationship with audiences all over the world through the Disney platforms, we are especially excited that we will be taking our first leap with Kevin Feige, Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso and their partners at Marvel Studios where we will be working closely with them on select MCU shows for Disney +. We're already in the mix on some projects that we can't wait to share.
