Imagine being so iconic that you would be described as “part of the holy trinity that runs Hollywood’s most successful superhero label,” along with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and co-president Louis D’Esposito.
Well, if you’ve seen Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, Black Panther, Doctor Strange or any other of a number of MCU movies, you’ve seen films with Victoria Alonso’s stamp all over them; one
of the most powerful executives in Hollywood. And yes, she’s also working on the much anticipated Avengers: Endgame.
The native of Argentina moved to the US at only 19. She started her career as a production assistant and then worked in production at Sony, DreamWorks, Fox and Paramount. She’s held executive positions at Marvel since 2006.
In 2016, she was the first woman to receive the Advanced Imaging Society’s Harold Lloyd Award, which recognized her achievements as a storyteller whose body of work embraces technology. In 2017, Alonso got a Visual Effects Society’s Visionary Award in recognition of her contributions to visual arts and filmed entertainment.
