Shortly after receiving his Walk of Fame star, Feige is expected to make a number of appearances at that weekend's San Diego Comic-Con convention. In addition to Marvel Studios' usual Hall H panel and a special presentation for Deadpool & Wolverine , Feige is confirmed to be appearing on Marvel Comics' "Marvel Fanfare" panel, which will occur in Room 6DE on Friday, July 26th. The panel will be a discussion between Feige, who also serves as the the CCO of all of Marvel, and Marvel Comics editor-in-chief C.B. Cebulski.
"I think people know we're going to be there on Saturday for our traditional Hall H panel with a lot of fun stuff to look at about our upcoming movies.

"Marvel Studios is going to be in Hall H twice during Comic-Con. Thursday, of course, is the opening of Deadpool & Wolverine , so we're going to be doing a fun Deadpool panel in Hall H to commemorate the opening and Shawn, Hugh, Ryan and I will be there."
