Avengers 5 and 6 have finally been officially named thanks to the Marvel Studios' Comic-Con presentation.
After The Infinity Saga, the Secret Wars story felt like a natural next step for Marvel Studios to take. Sure, those dates can move at any given time, but for the moment, Fantastic Four, Kang Dynasty, and Secret Wars are set to hit theaters within 12 months of each other. As a part of the Marvel Studios San Diego Comic-Con Hall H panel, the super-powered giant revealed the names for both Avengers 5 and 6.
Two new Avengers films will close out the "Multiverse Saga" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
We have no idea what these movies will look like—something we haven’t been able to say about Marvel in a minute. After setting the scope for its next two years of projects—with an ambitious, if still transitional, timeline for Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe—Kevin Feige got a little more ambitious near the end of his presentation today at San Diego Comic-Con, as the company’s plans edged into Phase 6. One big question is whether Joe and Anthony Russo, who directed previous Avengers installments Infinity War and Endgame will return; the pair have spoken more than once about their desire to adapt Secret Wars, but also expressed concern at what a big production it’ll be.
Each new phase would feature a handful of individual movie titles featuring characters like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, or the Guardians of the Galaxy ...
Does membership on another team like the Guardians, Fantastic Four, or Thunderbolts preclude someone from being involved in the Avengers? And who of all the new, unaffiliated characters will be considered worthy enough to receive the call? As first seen in Loki season 1, and then even further in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the storytelling possibilities in the MCU at the moment have taken on almost literal infinite dimensions. Why break from the usual “Avengers at the end of each phase” paradigm for two consecutive phases, only to return to it to conclude the Multiverse Saga? Not only is the Avengers’ current roster unclear but the Avengers are not even the only superhero team on the block within the MCU, anymore. Marvel’s Avengers capped the end of Phase 1, Avengers: Age of Ultron largely wrapped up Phase 2, and Phase 3 played host to the epic Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. That Avengers tradition comes to an end with Phase 4, which is set to conclude with Black Panther sequel Wakanda Forever this November. This might come as a shock to some MCU fans who’ve come to expect an epic Avengers finale for each phase. And then three of those phases constitute a saga like the Infinity Saga and now the Multiverse Saga.
Marvel didn't announce any of the cast members or other creatives attached to these new Avengers movies, but a good portion of the Ant-Man 3 panel was devoted ...
As comics editor Susana Polo wrote, Jonathan Hickman’s Secret Wars “evokes the granddaddy of all event comics, DC Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths, with a promise of universal armageddon and the mashing up of different parallel earths.” Hickman also played a significant role in reshaping the first family of Marvel, the Fantastic Four, so it looks like Phase 6 will see even more of his work brought to screen. At San Diego Comic-Con today Marvel unleashed a flurry of announcements, including the end of Phase 4 and timelines for Phases 5 and 6. Under this new plan, Phase 6 will roll out with the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, and will wrap up a year later with a double-header: Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. The first half of this two-parter, Kang Dynasty, will be released May 2, 2025, with Secret Wars coming Nov. 7, 2025.
During the blockbuster Marvel Studios panel at the convention center, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige took the stage to thunderous cheers and applause to ...
During the presentation Kevin Feige, President of Marvel Studios, announced that Marvel Studios' Avengers: The Kang Dynasty will release in theaters on May 2, 2025. Marvel Studios' 'Avengers: The Kang Dynasty' will release on May 2, 2025. SDCC 2022: Marvel Studios' 'Avengers: The Kang Dynasty' Announced
Over a year after 'Loki,' Kang's plan is finally coming together. At SDCC 2022, Marvel Studios revealed plans for a Phase 5 crossover movie called ...
(Notably, this makes Kang the first supervillain in Marvel Comic history to physically conquer the entire world.) However, with Fantastic Four set to kick off Phase 6, we assume that cast will also play a crucial role in this story. Kurt Busiek wrote the comic with art from Alan Davis, Kieron Dwyer, Ivan Reis, Manuel Garcia, and more.
We know we started with the core six, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye. By the final films, the definition of “Avenger” was ...
The Avengers are really only one piece of the puzzle in that story while FF and the mutants are two more. Another Hawkeye show co-star, Yelena Belova, is not replacing her dead sister Natasha on the Avengers as the new Black Widow as previously thought, but is instead heading to the Thunderbolts as well. Secret Wars in particular makes use of a whole bunch of Fantastic Four and X-Men heroes and villains. Wakanda Forever also seems likely to give us a new Black Panther, which everyone assumes will be Shuri in the suit after the death of her brother. Thor is a mystery at the moment. Ruffalo’s Hulk has no reason to leave, but he’s not getting any solo features either, it seems.
