Feige was not given a chance to say anything, nor do I think he would have rushed to speak against her in a public interview. All reports up to this point have been that this is a very separate project and that Marvel Studios have nothing to do with it and it will not be part of the wider MCU.

Personally, I think she's speaking wishful thinking with no agreement, and/or she means that the idea is in their films that there is a background universe and the implication is there that it is very similar to the MCU, but it is not directly the actual MCU. She used the term "adjunct." I imagine it will be for example like the Gotham TV show - not a prequel to any specific Batman, but a loose prequel to a general Batman story. This is not a spinoff directly of the MCU, but a loose spinoff that they will make intentionally vague so that general audiences can make the connection (as confusing and frustrating as that will be).

But whatever the case, at this point in time it cannot be categorically said that this is the MCU, as this is the first anyone has ever said of that and it is from the mouth of someone not part of Marvel Studios. And I am pretty sure it will be debunked/back-tracked in the next few days anyway
