Comic-Con proved to be the event Marvel chose for the ostentatious peacocking of the coming Phase 5 and 6 of the MCU, teasing not only features but Disney Plus destined shows helmed by Marvel Studios. So what can fans expect to draw them to their TV’s and cinema screens. Well here is what to expect in the next couple years:

Of course Marvel fans will be looking forward to the likes of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, but Phase of the MCU officially begins with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

This film is looking to be setting up a true force of antithesis in the form of Jonathan Major’s villainous character Kang, a (multi-verse version) of which we have seen in Loki under the guise of The One Who Remains. Now the real article will surely be causing trouble for Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang, Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne and Hope’s parents Hank Pym (played by Michael Douglas) and Janet Van Dyne (played by Michelle Pfeiffer). Envelop all of that in the uncharted realm of the Quantum realm, life-threatening peril is sure to ensue.

Next up in Phase 5 is Secret Invasion, which looks to build on a spy thriller type outing following the exploits of Nick Fury and Cobie Smulders, who plays Nick Fury’s loyal No. 2. Timeline wise this series happens after the events of Captain Marvel where Fury returns from space to Earth. The crossover event series showcases a faction of shapeshifting Skrulls who have been infiltrating Earth for years. The series is set to premiere on Disney Plus come Spring 2023.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3  is set to kick off in the summer of 2023. May 5, 2023 to be exact. The third film is most doubted a trilogy… But if loglines are anything to go by, the series follows the events of Endgame. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him to defend the universe along with protecting one of their own. A mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them. Filmmaker James Gunn’s said we’d learn about the origins of Rocket Raccoon, and we see another version of Gamora, a kinder, gentler one, rekindling with Star Lord. Appearing on stage were Will Poulter as Adam Warlock, Maria Bakalova as Cosmo the Spacedog, as well as Chris Pratt, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff and Sean Gunn. Chukwudi Iwuji crashed the session in character as the High Evolutionary, a somewhat evil guy who may be behind Rocket turning into the brilliant rodent we know.

And if you thought Civil War was the end of the Captain America saga, think again. Captain America: New World Order is set to make landfall come  May 3, 2024 and will have Falcon’s newly-adopted mantle of the Cap take centre stage, played by Anthony Mackie. This is of course a continuation of the event that culminated at the tail end of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Disney Plus series.
