‘The Marvels’ Confirms What We Feared About the MCU on Disney Plus as ‘Avengers 5’ May Be Snubbing Chris Hemsworth

With just one new movie coming from Marvel Studios this year, MCU lovers are about to spend a lot of time bingeing old Marvel stuff on Disney Plus. Unfortunately, a worrying trend that had started to build up across 2023 has now been confirmed to be a constant fixture thanks to The Marvels. Meanwhile, a beloved hero who’s brought the studio one of its biggest Multiverse Saga hauls might just be snubbed by Avengers 5. On the plus side, at least we don’t have to wait until that movie for the Captain Marvel/Captain America…

Will Chris Hemsworth’s Thor Be in ‘Avengers: The Kang Dynasty?’

Not so long ago, we expected Avengers: The Kang Dynasty to be Marvel Studios’ next sure bet for success, but that prediction changed once Jonathan Majors was dropped from the franchise and the fifth Avengers movie had to go back to the drawing board. As things stand, we’re just currently calling the film Avengers 5 as we await updated info on what new screenwriter Michael Waldron (Loki season 1, Doctor Strange 2) will offer up. Originally, Kang Dynasty had a director and a different writer locked in, with Shang-Chi‘s…

Who Are The Mech Avengers In What If…? Season 3? Marvel Comics May Give Us A Clue

How Will ‘The Marvels’ Flopping Affect The MCU’s Young Avengers?

A funny thing is happening with The Marvels. Despite enduring no end of negative press during its theatrical run, fans are coming to the much-maligned sequel’s defense now that it’s available on digital. As new viewers discover it and others give it another go from the comfort of their couches, The Marvels‘ reputation looks to be receiving a much-needed boost in MCU fandom circles. Unfortunately, this will do little to turn the movie’s metrics around in the grand scheme of things. With a worldwide gross of a little over…

‘Fantastic Four’ Could Lead the Way for Kang Recasting as ‘Avengers 5’ Just Landed Its First Volunteer for Tribute

2024 is set to be a key year for Marvel Studios, but not so much for the actual movies and TV shows releasing this year than those that positively have to get underway over the next 12 months. Fantastic Four is due out next May and we still don’t have any cast officially announced for the thing. Likewise, Avengers 5 doesn’t even have a title anymore, what with the Kang Dynasty potentially expiring before it could even begin, let alone a cast. Although perhaps we’re just beginning to see the early signs of these things…

Tom Holland Can Eclipse Robert Downey Jr. With Spider-Man’s MCU Exit Based on Latest Avengers Twist

Although the MCU is most known (and criticized) for its quippy dialogue and pronounced sense of humor, evidence suggests what Marvel fans actually love most of all is a good cry. The tear-jerking trilogy-ending Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was the most successful MCU film of 2023 by some margin and nearly $3 billion was spent on Avengers: Endgame when Robert Downey Jr.‘s Iron Man broke all our hearts by sacrificing himself to stop Thanos. Not to mention everything Tom Holland‘s Peter Parker endures in 2021’s…
