WandaVision kickstarted Marvel Phase four in a particularly strange style, with each episode taking inspiration from a dissimilar era of sitcom. Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany returned every bit Scarlet Witch and Vision, while Monica Rambeau (Captain Curiosity 2), Jimmy Woo (Randall Park), and Darcy (Kat Dennings) also featured. The serial finished with Wanda in solitude and a White Vision somewhere in the globe.

The cast reads similar a 'who'due south who' of Marvel icons, including Samuel Fifty. Jackson, Hayley Atwell, and more, and Jeffrey Wright joined the MCU equally the Watcher. While the stories began every bit anthological, they eventually come up together for a very, very cool episode.
Eternals introduced a bunch of immortal beings who live among us on Earth. The cast is amazing and includes Richard Madden every bit Ikaris, Angelina Jolie every bit Thena, Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo, Salma Hayek as Ajak, Brian Tyree Henry every bit Phastos, Don Lee as the hulking Gilgamesh, with Lia McHugh and The Walking Dead's Lauren Ridloff rounding out the cast, playing Sprite and Makkari respectively. Game of Thrones thespian Kit Harington volition also appear as the Blackness Knight. We'll say no more for now...
Eagle sees the titular hero reluctantly take mega-fan Kate Bishop under his wing after she becomes mixed up in New York's underground afterwards wearing the Ronin outfit. There are plenty of fun cameos in this fun, festive Disney Plus series.
Spider-Man: No Style Habitation dived right into the multiverse, with returning villains Dr. Ock (Alfred Molina), Electro (Jamie Foxx), Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), Lizard (Rhys Ifans), and Light-green Goblin (Willem Dafoe) making reappearances (forth with certain other familiar faces...), and concluded with the entire world forgetting Tom Holland'due south Peter Parker.
Moon Knight is currently ongoing and sees Oscar Isaac play Steven Grant. Or is it Marc Spector? The lead'southward spotty memory and multiple personalities grade the crux of the bear witness's mystery and so far. The British Museum employee has flitted from London to the Alps, tracked by the mysterious Arthur Harrow (Ethan Hawke) and with an ominous voice ringing in his ears.

That existence said, we've put the upcoming Marvel movies into phases equally best we tin, and we'll start with the movies, then go into the Disney Plus shows.
Upcoming Marvel movies
Doc Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
It'south all change here in the Sanctum Sanctorum for the Doctor Foreign sequel, which is slated for May 6, 2022.
Manager Scott Derrickson, who helmed the original Doctor Strange, has departed Multiverse of Madness, citing "creative differences." His writing partner, C. Robert Cargill, has as well left the projection. Sam Raimi – who previously directed Tobey Maguire-fronted Spider-Man trilogy – has stepped in as his replacement.

WandaVision concluded with Wanda obtaining the Darkhold, and studying up on everything contained within its pages. It's probable she'll need a magical mentor, and who amend than Doctor Strange? Elizabeth Olsen has teased a "natural progression" betwixt the series and sequel movie, after all.
The pic recently underwent reshoots, which were reportedly multiverse-related. Expect more universe-hopping shenanigans when the movie arrives, then.
Thor: Love and Thunder
Thor: Love and Thunder – initially the terminal motion-picture show of Marvel Phase iv earlier a release date reshuffle – is coming on July viii, 2022, and will almost definitely shock you with its large reveal: Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) is the new Thor (at present officially chosen Mighty Thor). Just let that sink in for a moment.
Not only that, only Chris Hemsworth is back at the OG God of Thunder, while Tessa Thompson is playing Valkyrie for the third fourth dimension in the MCU. Taika Waititi is also returning to direct and write Honey and Thunder. The villain of the piece is none other than ex-Batman actor Christian Bale. He'll be playing Gorr the God Butcher.
Waititi hosted a watch-along of Ragnarok, wherein he let slip a few Love and Thunder details. Valkyrie will keep to look for a queen to dominion alongside her in Asgard, while Korg is also confirmed to be back, though honey might not be on the carte du jour for our rock-based friend in Thor 4.
The God of Thunder himself, Chris Hemsworth, has also recently spoken most the Phase 4 sequel. He told the Philadelphia Enquirer, "[It'southward] Taika at his most extreme, and at his best. If the version I read is the one we get running with, information technology's going to be pretty insane."
Waititi has also hinted that Love and Thunder will also take some inspiration from Jason Aaron'southward Mighty Thor comic run, which introduced the concept of Jane Foster every bit Thor. If y'all need a primer on what to expect, check out what the comics tell us near Natalie Portman's Mighty Thor.
Other bandage members also include seemingly every fellow member of the Guardians of the Milky way, with set photos featuring Chris Pratt as Star Lord. Matt Damon is besides reported to have a role in the movie, and has been pictured on set, as has Melissa McCarthy. This really is a mini-Avengers pic.
Blackness Panther: Wakanda Forever
The Black Panther sequel has had to brand several adjustments after the tragic loss of Chadwick Boseman who played T'Challa, and we've just now gotten the official title: Blackness Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Ryan Coogler reportedly re-shaped the sequel after Boseman'southward passing, according to star Lupita Nyong'o. "We have a leader in Ryan, who feels very much like nosotros do, who feels the loss in a very, very real style equally well," she said. The sequel will be "respectful of the loss we've all experienced."
Martin Freeman, who plays Everett Ross, has teased a tiny scrap of information about the plot: "Some of it was really – some of it's very odd, and I think [Coogler] could meet by the reaction on my face some of the things he was maxim… He kept sort of stopping, and going... He kept on saying, 'Stay with me, only this is going to work.'" Await something surprising, and then.
There's no word yet on who will take upward the Black Panther mantle (although rumors are swirling that information technology volition be T'Challa'south younger sister, Shuri). Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will too feature the MCU debut of Dominique Thorne'due south Riri Williams (AKA Ironheart). The sequel is gear up to debut on November xi, 2022.

While we initially thought Guardians of the Galaxy 3 would be a post-Phase 4 championship, the recently video from Marvel suggests otherwise. It's gear up to release on May five, 2023, and has been organized under the Marvel Stage four umbrella.
The curious instance of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 has had as many twists, turns, and misdirects as a trailer for a Russo Brothers picture show. James Gunn was initially fired by Disney. Then he was re-hired less than a yr later. Now, a Guardians of the Galaxy 3 script is bringing people to tears. Gunn, though, has The Suicide Squad sequel/reboot and won't be transferred back to the MCU until that'due south released. Disney has penciled in a 2023 release, with information technology expected to be Gunn's final movie as director in the franchise.
Expect Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, and Vin Diesel to return.

However, this volition all come afterwards Thor: Love and Thunder, which includes the Guardians.

We do know its villain (more on that in a moment) and general bandage. The original THR report states that it is filming in 2021 with the aim to release in 2022, while Rick and Morty writer Jeff Loveness is penning the script. That could put it in Phase iv territory, just zero has been confirmed as of yet. Paul Rudd will return, as will director Peyton Reed.
The big inflow, though, is Jonathan Majors, who volition play time-traveling villain Kang the Conquistador. You may retrieve him from such multiversal tragedies as the Loki finale.
Joining him, every bit per Marvel, is "Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man, Evangeline Lilly as Promise Van Dyne/Wasp, Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym, and Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne. Kathryn Newton joins the cast every bit Cassie Lang."

The commencement footage from the series was released on Disney Plus Day, and can exist plant in a featurette on the streamer titled Marvel Studios' 2021 Disney Plus Solar day Special. Though the glimpse of the series is very brief, we practice go a quick look at Tatiana Maslany's Jennifer Walters Hulked out, as well every bit Mark Ruffalo back as Bruce Banner (in his behemothic green grade).
"I'thou Jennifer Walters, I'm a normal lawyer. Well, non that normal," Jennifer says in a voiceover. There'southward as well that iconic "don't brand me angry" line, which appears to be part of an in-universe video featuring Jennifer and Bruce.
Beyond Phase 4 – AKA Marvel Phase 5
Equally we wrote before, information technology's unclear whether Marvel will officially break things up into Phase 4 and Phase 5, or simply continue releasing new movies and shows. Kevin Feige himself has recently denied giving any further info on when Phase 4 actually ends (via Cinema Blend), then the following entries may fall into Phase 4 or beyond that, depending on how things change. One thing that's not coming but notwithstanding is an Avengers movie in Curiosity Phase 4.

The Secret Invasion storyline in the comic books sees several Skrulls infiltrate Globe and impersonate some of Earth'southward Mightiest Heroes. Don't await it to be quite every bit expansive as that, however. Tempering expectations in an interview with Comic Book, Feige replied, when asked if information technology would have the same amount of characters as its comic volume counterpart: "Well, at that place were more characters in the Secret Invasion comic serial than there were in Endgame so, no."
Notwithstanding, with Chris Evans potentially returning as Captain America, could nosotros see something surprisingly large in the MCU show? Permit's hope so.

He's a guy with wings and a shield, but he is a guy."
He connected: "So, we're going to put him through the wringer and make him earn it, and see what happens when he is outweighed, outclassed, out-everything. What makes somebody Captain America?
