Fortnite’s incredible success has caught the attention of the media industry, leading to exciting crossovers, events, and storylines led by Chief Creative Officer Donald Mustard. Now, it seems that Mustard’s next collaboration could be with the renowned Marvel producers, the Russo brothers, as he is officially listed as a key member of their independent film company, AGBO.
Donald Mustard’s involvement with AGBO was first noticed on November 17th when his bio appeared on the company’s website, highlighting his previous achievements and his role as a partner alongside the Russo brothers. Mustard had previously spent 25 years at Epic Games before announcing his retirement in September. During his time there, he worked on groundbreaking projects such as Fortnite and the Infinity Blade series, which introduced new audiences to Epic’s work. This month, Marvel and God of War character designer Charlie Wen took over as Fortnite’s new chief creative officer and has achieved remarkable success with the return of the original season.
The Russo brothers have collaborated with Mustard on several projects in the past, including Star Wars Episode IX and Fortnite’s Chapter 2 Season 6 storyline, Primal. It appears that their working relationship has grown, as Mustard is now listed as a company partner on AGBO’s website, a role he shares with the Russo brothers.
Interestingly, there has been no official announcement regarding Mustard’s joining of AGBO, and the website does not provide a specific date for this partnership, unlike other members who have received dated announcements in the news section.
While it remains unknown if AGBO is currently working on any video game projects, the company has shown a keen interest in the gaming industry. In January 2022, AGBO made a significant investment in South Korean game publisher Nexon, acquiring 38% of their shares. The Russo brothers explained that they made this move because it was the right time for their growth.
Overall, the collaboration between Donald Mustard and the Russo brothers holds great promise, and fans of both Fortnite and Marvel can look forward to exciting developments in the future.
