The recipe for success here is clear.

Keep finding promising young filmmakers making innovative work (Fruitvale Station) then hamstring them with franchise films for a decade (Creed, Black Panther). If they continue to be successful and not lose every shred of their creative spark, only then give them funding to make more original work.

Worked for Christopher Nolan, too. Although he did make The Prestige and Inception during his decade making Batman.
