All Things Marvel Announced at San Diego Comic-Con
It was going to be difficult for Marvel to build momentum going into the MCU’s next phase. Avengers Endgame marked The Infinity Saga’s end. While we have seen some fantastic new characters in phase four, many are still unsure where the franchise is heading.
Now we know that The Multiverse Saga is underway. This is not surprising considering that the Multiverse featured heavily in many phases four projects, such as Spider-Man, Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness and Loki. Marvel announced a slew of projects at San Diego Comic Con’s Hall H. We’re here to help you. Get ready.
Next up on the MCU slate is I am Groot, a series of five animated shorts. This animated short will answer your questions about what happens when Groot farts. Sheik: Attorney at Law will air on Disney Plus from August 17t. Tatiana Maslany plays Tatiana Maslany’s Sheulk, who Bruce Banner is training to become a Hulk. Kevin Feige revealed that Charlie Cox’s Daredevil and Benedict Wong’s Wong would also appear in the series.
The fourth phase will end with Black Panther: Wakanda forever, which will be released on November 11r, 2022. This epic trailer may be Marvel’s most powerful yet. The trailer teased Namor, the mutant villain and showed a Wakanda mourning, as the film was set to reflect on Chadwick Boseman’s tragic death.
We now have a complete phase five lineup. The fifth phase will begin with Ant-Man and The Wasp on February 17y, 2023). This episode will feature Jonathan Majors’ Kang, the ultimate bad guy in The Multiverse Saga. Then, we’ll move on to Secret Invasion in spring 2023. Disney Plus sees Maria Hill and Nick Fury team up to combat a Skrull invasion. The trailer was shown to attendees, but the rest of the details are being kept secret. James Rhodes, Don Cheadle’s star, will also appear in the series.
James Gunn’s eagerly awaited Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will be released on May 55, 2023. This is the last Guardians movie. A secret trailer for the film was also shown to attendees. This private trailer, made possible by the Multiverse, apparently featured Gamora. Echo, a spinoff from Hawkeye, will be released in Summer 2023. It will also feature Daredevil and Ms. Marvel. Captain Marvel will join The Marvels on July 28y, 2023.
The second season of Loki will then drop (Summer 2023), followed by Blade November 3, .2023) and Ironheart(Fall 2023). Ironheart/Ri Williams will be the first to appear in Black Panther – Wakanda Forever. After blade, we have Agatha (Winter 20,23/4), a spinoff of Wandavision. Then, Daredevil: Born Again will be released in Spring 2024. One of the panel’s highlights was the 18-episode series with Charlie Cox’s Daredevil.
Are you still here with me? We are almost there. Then, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America portrayal finally gets a solo appearance in Captain America New World Order (3 mai 2024), before phase five concludes with the team-up film ThunderboltsJuly 26y, 2024.
You don’t have to tell me that you are all Marvel-ed out. There’s more! We also know that the sixth phase will begin with Fantastic FourNovember 8r, 2024, and end with two Avengers films in 2025 – Avengers, The Kang Dynasty (2 mai, 2025) & Avengers Secret Wars (7 November 2025).
Marvel teased the animated series Spider-Man Freshman Year. While Cox will appear as Daredevil in the show, Tom Holland isn’t yet set to take over his role. Although concept art for the show was shown, it doesn’t appear that it will be included in the official MCU lineup. This is strange, considering Freshman Years was initially intended to be a canonical origin story. What if I will be back for a second season, but this was not announced at the main Marvel panel? That is quite a lot of Marvel content. Let’s go!
