Some statements made in ‘The Official Marvel Podcast’ and that have taken many by surprise, not because of the fact that it is set in the past, something that could be guessed from the style of the promotional images, but because of the alternative universe in which will be located and if this means that what we see will remain apart from the rest of the body of the current MCU.

“It’s a period movie, and there was a picture we published with Johnny Storm flying in the air making a 4 symbol. There was a cityscape in the corner of that picture, and there were a lot of smart people who realized that that landscape urban did not exactly resemble the New York we know, or the New York that existed in the 60s in our world. “They are very, very intelligent observations,” Feige stated in the podcast.

The CEO of Marvel Studios confirmed that the filming will begin on Monday July 29 once the San Diego Comic-Con has come to an end.
