(See more:

With Tony Stark gone, the MCU needs a new super-genius inventor. Enter teenage prodigy

Lyric Ross

(

This Is Us).

Chinaka Hodge (TNT’s

Snowpiercer)

is attached as the head writer, and

Black Panther

director

Ryan Coogler

is

This

spinoff from

will star Kathryn Hahn as her fan-favorite character Agatha Harkness. Joe Locke

(Heartstopper)

and Aubrey Plaza (Hahn’s

. (A second

WandaVision

spin-off, this one focusing on Paul Bettany’s Vision, is also

reportedly in the works

.)

Captain America: Brave New World

Release date: August 26, 2024 (in Theaters)

We’ve got

a new Captain America

, so it was inevitable that we’d be getting a new Cap movie. Anthony Mackie will appear in the title role.

Harrison Ford was announced to take over the role of General Thaddeus Ross

and will make his debut in this release.

Daredevil: Born Again

Release date: Spring 2024 (On Disney+)

Release date: December 20, 2024 (In theaters)

Marvel Studios is readying a movie

based on the comic

Thunderbolts


and director

Jake Schreier

has been tapped to bring it to life. This film marks the end of Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Steven Yeun (

Nope

) signed on

for an undisclosed role

Blade

Release date: February 14, 2025 (In theaters)

Disney hasn’t revealed much about this reboot of the franchise that features a badass vampire-hunter who is also a vampire, but we know that it stars two-time Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali, who also played Cornell “Cottonmouth” Stokes in Netflix Marvel series

Luke Cage

. We also know Blade appeared (or at least his voice did) in

the end credits of

The Eternals


. After losing

director Bassam Tariq

, who would have been the first U.S.-Pakistani person to helm a Marvel Studios film,


Blade

was put on pause

, and its release date was shifted. But now it has a

new

director in place:


Lovecraft Country

‘s Yann Demange, as well as a writer in Michael Starrbury

, so the September 2024 date looks ever more likely.

Deadpool 3

Release date: May 3, 2024 (In Theaters)

Ryan Reynolds’ “merc with the mouth” is set to appear in

Disney’s first R-rated film

following the company’s completed acquisition of Fox assets. Oh, and did you happen to hear that

Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine is also appearing in this one

? Unless you are cut off from all

social media

,

you no doubt caught

that

announcement

.

Deadpool 3

writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wenick spoke with


Den of Geek


about how Deadpool’s move to the MCU will not affect the feel of the movie. Or, in Wernick’s words: “Deadpool’s gonna be Deadpool.” Reese also said that Disney has been more than willing to ensuring the franchise keeps its core identity.

Shawn Levy (

Free Guy

) is directing.

Fantastic Four

Release date: May 2, 2025 (In theaters)

Phase Six of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, kicks off with the MCU debut of Marvel’s most famous family. Jon Watts was scheduled to direct

but he is no longer doing that

—

Matt Shakaman of

WandaVision


is now in the chair—and though we saw

John Krasinski

as Mr. Fantastic in

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

, there’s no guarantee he returns.

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty

Release date: May 1, 2026 (In theaters)

Since neither Phase Four or Phase Five ended with Avengers movies, Phase Six will end with two, back to back. The first is

The Kang Dynasty

, a title which heavily suggests that Kang (Jonathan Majors) will play a major role.

Destin Daniel Cretton (

Shang-Chi

) will direct

.

Avengers: Secret Wars

Release date: May 7, 2027 (In theaters)

It all comes down to this. Phase Six, and the whole Phase 4-6 arc of

the Multiverse Saga

, ends with

Secret Wars

. We don’t know anything about the plot other than the comics that the title is based on; Marvel veteran Michael Waldron

(Loki, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness)


is writing the script

.

Armor Wars

Release date: Unknown (In theaters)

This

project

—originally slated for a Disney+ series, but

now getting the feature film treatment

—will follow James Rhodes (

Don Cheadle

) as he tracks down stolen tech that allows criminals to replicate Iron Man

technology

.

Also

: Marvel slotted several other projects for Phase Six that take place alongside

Fantastic Four

and the

Avengers

films. There are two in fall 2024, two in winter 2024, one in winter 2025, two in spring 2025 and two in summer 2025. Some of those are probably…

Unscheduled But Probably Still Happening Shows & Movies

Moon Knight Season 2

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

Moon Knight himself, Oscar Isaac, was recently spotted in Egypt and

teased that a second season of his show could be on the way

. Marvel and Disney have yet to confirm.

Marvel Zombies

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

This new animated show is loosely spun out from a

breakout episode of

What If?


that saw MCU heroes battling a zombie apocalypse.

Spider-Man: Freshman Year

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

Disney says this new animated series follows Peter Parker “on his way to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU, with a journey unlike we’ve ever seen and a style that celebrates the character’s early comic book roots.”

What if…?

Season 2

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

The speculative animated series and its omnipresent narrator the Watcher will return with an all-new season. The show’s creators say next season will focus on new stories, new heroes,

and “lots of fun.”

Though the trailer still hasn’t been released, the

Marvel Animation Panel at San Diego Comic Con

revealed some Phase 4 characters that will be in the show.

Untitled Wakanda Series

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

Not much is known yet about this show set in

Black Panther

‘s home country.

Untitled

Shang-Chi

sequel

Release date: Unknown (In theaters)

Shang-Chi’s debut movie was

compelling, exciting and fun

. It also made

a ton of money

, so a sequel is inevitable. That the film’s director is making

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty

does throw it into limbo a bit.

Untitled

Wonder Man

series

Release date: Unknown (On Disney+)

Marvel Studios

has announced that it’s moving ahead with a

Wonder Man

series.


Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings




director

Destin Daniel Cretton

is attached to helm and

Brooklyn 99

writer Andrew Guest (who also produced

Hawkeye

) is on board to showrun the series. On October 31, the title star was announced: genre favorite

Yayha Abdul-Mateen II

.

Untitled mutants movie

Release date: Unknown (In theaters)

Now that Disney owns the old Fox assets that included all the “mutant” Marvel superheroes, you can very likely count on characters like the X-Men making an MCU debut.
