The Marvel Cinematic Universe blew up San Diego Comic-Con Hall H with a flurry of news about its upcoming titles that very few expected. Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, has not only made it official that we are about to complete Phase 4 and that it will be the first of the three phases that make up the Multiverse Saga. He also gave us two great news: We already have a date for the next two Avengers movies.
These two events will take place within Phase 5 of the MCU and both will hit theaters in 2025. The next Avengers movie will be “Avengers: Kang Dynasty” and will be released on May 2, 2025. From the title it can only be deduced that the character of Jonathan Majors, who will be presented in ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ (February 17, 2023 in theaters), will have a very important role in the MCU, most likely as the Thanos of the Multiverse Saga. We have already seen the Majors as “The One Who Remains”, a variant of the Kang, in “Loki”, so the seeds were planted there.
Avengers: Secret Wars will hit theaters on November 7, 2025., a title that refers to one of the most remembered events of the Marvel comics, a gigantic fight between superheroes in Battle World, a planet created from fragments of other planets. Although the architect of the Secret Wars in the comics is a cosmic entity called Beyonder, could it be Kang this time confronting the characters in her desire to weaken them and facilitate his conquests?
Who will be in charge of directing them?
The question that was on everyone’s lips at the end of the UCM panel is who will be in charge of directing these two major events. Kevin Feige confirmed to Deadline that Anthony and Joe Russo, who directed “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Avengers: Endgame”, “they are not connected with them”. The president of Marvel Studios said that the Russos have been very clear with their intention not to go back into a big project like “Infinity War” or “Endgame”, at least for now, but he anticipates that they are looking for a way to return. to collaborate: “We want to find something to do together, but it won’t be this”.
A few days ago, the Russo brothers declared that they have been big fans of ‘Secret Wars’ since they were little, but they think about that movie “It would be bigger than ‘Infinity War’ and ‘Endgame’. It’s a huge challenge, those were two very difficult films to make. Try to imagine making two more films even bigger than those … We’ll have to check with the pillow.”. As there is still a long way to go for the filming of “The Kang Dynasty” and “Secret Wars”, there is still time to negotiate. If not the Russo brothers, who should direct the next two episodes of Avengers?
