Who Will Be in the MCU’s Young Avengers?

After an exhaustive wait, the MCU finally gave official confirmation of the Young Avengers with a teasing scene tucked into the end of The Marvels. The youthful team is a go, meaning the hordes of Young Avengers fans are years, at most, away from an official Young Avengers offering. We don’t know if it will come in film or television form just yet, nor do we know whether it will exclusively follow the team, or if they will instead enjoy a background role in a separate release. There are a lot of question marks currently…

Steven Yeun’s Sentry Could Commit The MCU’s Goriest Murder

In the "King in Black" event (by Donny Cates, Ryan Stegman, JP Mayer, and Frank Martin), the Avengers call on Sentry as Knull, the King in Black, arrives on Earth with his symbiote army. He appears to be the key to victory after taking the God of Symbiotes into space, but when Sentry reveals his plans to take Knull out, the supervillain tells him he remembered what he did to Carnage and pulls a similar move on him — ripping his body in half and turning him inside out much to the shock of his fellow heroes.…

Why Did ‘The Marvels’ Flop? 5 Reasons Why the Brie Larson Sequel Is the MCU’s Biggest Ever Bomb

To say Marvel Studios’ 2023 didn’t go as planned would be the biggest understatement since Tony Stark said he was a bit rich. Granted, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Loki season 2 are up there with the best the franchise has to offer, but the MCU’s year has still suffered several of its most embarrassing failures too, including Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Secret Invasion, and most of all, The Marvels. With its shockingly meager box office numbers, the sequel to 2019’s Captain Marvel — which brought home over…

Pedro Pascal Potentially Being the McU’s Latest Daddy Distracts From ‘The Kang Dynasty’ Vanishing Before Our Very Eyes

The Marvels is tanking at the box office. The next Avengers movie is being left completely rudderless. How is Marvel to get the fans back on side? How about finally revealing the Fantastic Four cast? We did our waiting, four years of it (not quite in Azkaban, although we did have to endure Quantumania), but finally it looks like some official casting news for Marvel’s reboot of its First Family is on its way. And reports are so thrilling that they’re successfully distracting us from some concerning Kang Dynasty…

Tom Hiddleston Inverts Our Understanding of the ‘Loki’ Season 2 Finale as the MCU’s Next Shot at $1 Billion Turns Tail

Once an all-too-achievable goal, Marvel Studios is finding it increasingly tricky to cross that coveted $1 billion mark at the box office. Take The Marvels, for example. In a year where Barbie became an international sensation, you’d think the MCU’s own fun feminist-flavored family-friendly franchise installment would fly something fierce. Unfortunately, it’s endured the lowest-grossing opening weekend of any Marvel movie. All that is to say that Marvel is unlikely to let its next best shot at a billion slip through its…

The Marvels registers MCU’s lowest opening with $21.5M in North America | Hollywood

The Marvels, an all-female ensemble film led by Brie Larson, has scored the lowest opening for any movie that falls under the Marvel Cinematic Universe. As per Deadline, Nia DaCosta's superhero movie has managed to earn only $21.5 million at the North American box office on the opening day. (Also Read: The Marvels review: Brie Larson leads a quick, disconcerting film of girls, cats, and crossovers) Brie Larson as Captain Marvel in The Marvels The Marvels openingThe Marvels, made on a budget of $200 million,…

The Loki Season 2 Finale Confirms The MCU’s Creepiest Villain Is Still Alive

It's been promised for a while that "Loki" Season 2 wouldn't end on a cliffhanger, and it lived up to that promise. A Season 3 may not be entirely out of the question, but the two seasons we have tell a complete story. As such, this may be the end of Miss Minutes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She was rebooted, and all is (relatively) back to normal in the TVA again. However, Miss Minutes may not be done just yet.  Fans have long speculated the TVA will play a role in "Deadpool 3," potentially as a way…

Marvel’s Spotlight branding will help you cut through the MCU’s noise

In an effort to help viewers understand which of its spinoff projects will have significant connections to the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe and which are really meant to work as standalone stories, Marvel’s rolling out a new kind of branding just in time for its upcoming Echo series.Ahead of Echo’s debut on both Disney Plus and Hulu, Marvel announced today that it will be the first series to arrive under the studio’s new Marvel Spotlight banner: the brand consisting of all the MCU’s spinoffs that, while set in the…

MCU’s new chapter

The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s spy-thriller series, Secret Invasion, has come to an end. The finale is likely to set up the Armor Wars storyline from the comics. The original story of Secret Invasion is vastly different from the one shown in the MCU offering, as the former is a crossover storyline that features many heroes such as Iron Man, Spiderman, Doctor Strange, Professor X, Wolverine, Luke Cage, and Daredevil. The original Armor Wars revolved around Tony Stark becoming a public enemy in order to…

Marvel’s Commitment to Its Most Devastating Mistake Isn’t Doing the McU’s Phase 5 Any Favors

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is currently suffering a fate most serialized television shows bump up against at some point: The stakes have been raised so high that there’s nowhere else to go, and Marvel’s commitment to raising them even higher has cheapened the franchise and curbed enthusiasm for what’s to come. Secret Invasion is a perfect example of this, but it’s far from the only offender.  The MCU is currently halfway through its Multiverse Saga. Phase Five is only just kicking into gear, and what lies on the…
