Kevin Feige Explains How Stan Lee Shot Four Cameos In One Day

When superheroes search for a role model, they look to Stan Lee. The famed comic creator is 93 years old now, but Stan is still as active as ever. Whether he's visiting comic conventions or shooting cameos for Marvel's many films, Stan stands as one of Hollywood's most tenacious icons. And, during a recent appearance, Kevin Feige explained how the living legend shot four different cameos in one day.

Kevin attended a special screening of Captain America: Civil War last week and talked about Stan at a following Q&A. It was there that the Marvel Studios President praised the comic creator for shooting four cameos for four different films during a recent trip to Atlanta. When asked whether Stan's cameos were random or not, Kevin told the audience each character was created carefully for the writer.

"We do not shoot random ones. They're always very specific," Kevin explained. "A couple of months ago in Atlanta, he flew down and we shot four in one day -- for four various projects. They're all awesome! They're all totally different. And he was unbelievable. He was on fire. He came in, he sat here, he stood there, he stood in this window, and then he went home."

Clearly, Stan is putting his own superpowers to good use.

Fans will remember that Stan even commented on these cameos earlier this year. However, at the time, reports surfaced that the writer had only filmed three cameos during his visit to Atlanta. At Canada's Fan Expo, Stan confirmed he had filmed three clips for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Doctor Strange. As for what the fourth cameo might be, fans are speculating the footage may be used for Thor: Ragnarok or even Avengers: Infinity War as the ensemble blockbuster is prepping to shoot down south.

Stan also told fans that one of these recent cameos stands as his favorite of all time. The creator told audiences at Denver Comic Con, "It's hard to pick my favorite cameo, because as you know, they're all masterpieces. Unfortunately, this will frustrate you a little: I have a favorite because I can't tell you what it is because it hasn't appeared yet....I had to go and do three cameos for three movies at the same time. One of the cameos I did is for..."

However, his timely assistant prevented Stan from revealing which film the cameo would fit in.

Of course, fans are excited as always to see Stan star in his new MCU cameos. The legend has starred in thirty cameos since the film series began, prompting him to become a drunken veteran to an adorably confused FedEx employee.

The next time fans see Stan on the big screen will be when Doctor Strange hits theaters later this fall. The sorcerer supreme's standalone will hit theaters on November 4, 2016.
