When Kevin Feige decided to bring the MCU back to San Diego Comic Con, he decided to go pretty damn hard.
The amount of reveals that were unveiled here were something else.Some were confirmed casting rumours/characters appearing in upcoming projects but there were some genuine surprises in the mix here.
In terms of trailers, we got ones for both She-Hulk: Attorney At Law (August 17th on Disney+) and a rather stirring and emotional trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (November 11th in theatres). Both of these projects will conclude the MCU's fourth phase but they alone were the tip of the iceberg as Feige decided to announce the contents of the next phase. Before that you can check out I Am Groot on Disney+ from August 10th.
2023 will kick start Phase 5, starting off with movies such as Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania, Guardians Of The Galaxy: Volume 3, The Marvels and Blade as well as Disney+ shows such as Secret Invasion, Echo, Loki Season 2, What If Season 2 (also renewed for a third season and has a spin off titled Marvel Zombies in development) and Ironheart. The now newly retitled, Agatha: Coven Of Chaos will premiere in late 2023 and likely bleed into early 2024. That year will also include movies such as Captain America: New World Order and Thunderbolts. Oh and a certain man without fear will also be getting his own Disney+ show titled, Daredevil: Born Again. Speaking of which ....
Matt Murdock is back with a vengeance. With Charlie Cox's Daredevil also appearing in She-Hulk: Attorney At Law (with a new costume no less), his Disney+ series will break the MCU format by having a whopping 18 episodes. That genuinely surprised the heck out of me. You know what else was surprising though? Not only did Kevin Feige disclose presumably all of the fifth phase of the MCU, he also decided to go a bit further beyond for good measure.
If the first three phases in the MCU had the title of The Infinity Saga, then title for Phases 4-6 now have the title of The Multiverse Saga. Not only that but three movies confirmed for the sixth saga are Fantastic Four (November 8th 2024), Avengers: The Kang Dynasty (May 5th 2025) and Avengers: Secret Wars (November 7th 2025) with the latter movie being the conclusion of Phase 6. With Jonathan Majors playing the multiversal villain Kang throughout the saga, this could be an incredible conclusion to five years worth of content. Also while it might seem like a lot was revealed here, there's still more to come courtesy of D23 in September.
What reveals excited you the most at SDCC? Was there anything you wish they had revealed? Did you feel too much was unveiled or just the right amount? What can we expect at D23?
