Speaking with Vulture, Feige said: “The truth of the matter as I understand it is the deal has to be figured out. There’s been no communication.
“We’re not thinking about it. We’re focusing on everything we’ve already announced.
“If and when the deal actually happens, we’ll start to think more about it.
“Until then, we have a lot to do. … It would be years away.”
