Wait, what? Is this take serious? I meant I rarely dipped into movie threads so I wouldn't know!
yes, every MCU thread has had a "looks like TV" contingent through at least phase 2 and even into phase 3 when stuff started having very distinct styles people would still trot it out.
And they always think they have profound criticism.
Anyways in that new article it says that the commercials for WandaVision have
Hinted at Hydra as a Proctor and Gamble-like company. Did I miss something?

Kevin Feige on the Genesis of 'WANDAVISION' - Murphy's Multiverse
I legitimately just assumed this would be the OT title since the first trailer dropped.
I think Kevin got asked a question that included a reference to them and Kevin answered it with "Commercials were an early idea for that"

phase one was notorious for this. No steaks, looks like tv show
if Jessica even makes a cameo, that means all the other Netflix shows characters are canon as well.
If they bring back the Netflix characters with those actors, I think the chances of them simply rebooting the characters are pretty high. In a similar way that they rebooted Spider-Man, without rehashing their origin stories, etc. I think it's an ideal way to keep some loose canon and good actors without importing all the baggage and having to import all of the actors.
Still curious if they're actually going to bring over the Netflix actors though.
She-Hulk just got hella more interesting for me if this is legit.
Like most people, I'm expecting a soft reboot of the character along with Daredevil.
...Are most people expecting this?
I still don't think DD will show up in Spidey and that was from far more trustworthy sources than DanielRPK.

it means those stories are part of the multiverse at least. Lots of room for the same actors to appear but the canon for this universe be different
If Feige is willing to bring back the same actors/actresses for the role, then there has to be some sort of compromise.
There's no way he is willing to carry a bunch of baggage that isn't his own, so a soft reboot of some capacity is inevitable.

It was a legitimate criticism of the first Avengers film - it was lit and shot very flat like some TV shows. But then it sort of became a meme about Marvel Studios films in general, to the point that we would stop taking serious anyone who said it.
It's been established that J Jonah Jameson, Electro and Doc Ock in the MCU Spidey 3 film are not the same as their original film versions despite being played by the same actors , so I'm guessing the same will happen for the Netflix characters.

I mean, those are completely different situations. Electro and Doc Ock are dead characters from separate universes, one of which was 17 years ago.
If they bring back Charlie or Krysten, it would be very strange for the film to go out of its way to say that they are different versions, making the Netflix shows not canon. That just overcomplicates things, as there's no reason to do that. There wouldn't be a need to reference anything that happened in those shows if they're cameos anyway.
(And either way, what you said about Electro and Doc Ock is definitely not established. We don't know that yet.)
I'm agreeing with you, the Netflix shows won't be canon, if Feige decides to bring back the same actors.
And Jamie Foxx did say on Instagram that the Electro won't be the same blue Electro from ASM2.
No, that was a typo lol. Sorry. You read it before I could edit. I'm saying they won't be different versions. That just overcomplicates things, as there's no reason to do that.
All he said is that he won't be blue. It's a big jump to take that to mean that both him and Doc Ock will be different versions. We simply don't know anything behind the context of their appearances yet.
I agree with ZeoVGM. If Ritter or Cox comes back it would make more sense fo them to be the Netflix show versions. They were extremely popular shows that came out fairly recently.
The only way they wouldn't include the Netflix continuity at least a bit would be if they were recast. Maybe not everything would be canon, but the bullet points of their shows will be mostly the same.
Though I wouldn't be opposed of the last season of Jessica Jones being erased.

After establishing multiverse, they can just handwave the whole netflix show as some other universe. Ritter and Cox are the two stand out casting of Netflix shows that I would love to come back. Finn Jones Iron Fist, I can do without.
I didn't mind his Danny Rand I just felt they could have dumped the problematic white savior stuff and cast an Asian actor.
The less said about Luke Cage's actor the better.

Yeah, if push came to shove, Feige would just pull the multiverse card.
But how it'll play out, they'll probably never really confirm or deny any past incidents from the Netflix shows just so people can headcannon whatever they want.

Damn they moved up lol. Loved the endless and can't wait for synchronicity this week. Their movies are just amazingly weird.

Translation: No, but I know some of you care about it, so I'm going to be non-committal about it.
I dunno, I honestly believe the Charlie Cox rumor. The sources aren't bad, with one of them being the person who leaked the Doc Ock news first.
Well, he was asked about reviving the series. I think it's possible we get DD, which doesn't mean he's the same DD.
As an asian myself, I don't see an issue with keeping Danny Rand as a white guy.
They just need to handle the character more appropriately and emphasize on what made the character great in the comics (Brubaker/Fraction).
Also, since we are getting Shang-Chi, the last thing I want to see is an asian Iron Fist pretty much doing the same thing and perpetuating certain asian stereotypes.
The MCU should handle the Netflix shows the same they did with the MCU: vaguely mentions of stuff here and there and just implying things. But at the same time i feel there isn't that much baggage to begin with so they could get away with it pretty much by just bringing those characters in.
I'm definitely in the "soft reboot" camp for Netflix characters. Sort of like the way Incredible Hulk works as a sequel to the 2003 Hulk if you squint. Like, for the most part, the Netflix shows work as prequels to the "iconic" versions of those characters - Daredevil's backstory with Kingpin and Bullseye (crime boss, flunkey, history of antagonism) and with Elektra (former lover, died, came back), Jessica's with Killgrave (which they'd never do on Disney+), even Iron Fist unlocking his power. Only things that would be weird is Luke Cage dropping the "crime lord" subplot but like... you can kind of gloss over that.
I think the question of canon or not boils down to whether they want to do different versions of any of the story beats that showed up in the TV shows, and to a lesser extent if they want to recast some of the roles.
Until a story they want to tell requires them to contradict the Netflix series, it's likely that it'll be up to the viewer to decide.

True, but you know Feige (or the actors) will be asked that question in interviews, so he'll have to have a throwaway, one sentence answer.
‘Deadpool 3’ Confirmed for the MCU; Kevin Feige Teases R-Rating and When It’s Filming

Collider's own Steve Weintraub recently spoke with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige in anticipation of Marvel's first Disney+ series WandaVision, and during their conversation Feig gave a promising update on Deadpool 3, revealed when filming will begin, and most importantly, confirmed the sequel will be part of the MCU.
That's right. When Deadpool 3 happens, it won't be as some tangentially related property with a couple of jokes about the MCU. Ryan Reynolds' foul-mouthed mercenary is officially joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe – and he'll be keeping his R-rating. Feige said sisters Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin and Wendy Molyneux are hard at work on the script with Reynolds overseeing, but Deadpool 3 filming won't begin until 2022 at the earliest
Great news for Deadpool 3.
