Predict the MCU Phase 4 (& 5?)

[B]

Now that Endgame has slipped all the way to halfway down A&E, it's time for a new discussion. Who or what is coming next? You have until sometime after Spider-man: Far From Home to claim clairvoyance.

No glory in predicting the known projects: GotG3, Black Panther 2, Black Widow, Doctor Strange 2, Shang-Chi, and the Eternals.

No one's talked about She-Hulk. I think now that we've had Captain Marvel and Professor Hulk, we're primed for a She-Hulk legal drama. She can crush the Sakovia Accords, solve some problems for people gone during the 5 years, and/or form A-Force.

Also, A-Force.

Secret Wars!
Some play on Civil War 2, maybe they don't call it that, but something like Minority Report.
That latest trailer for Spider-Man: FFH is setting up a Spider-Verse.
No X-Men yet, but the Fantastic Four need to make an appearance.
Also, I want some Ms. Marvel.

[i got bugs]

I'd think Kang is the most logical next big bad (altho I hope it's doom)

I'm not feeling mysterio being from another reality either

[Peeps]

i dont think the mulitiverse is going to be from spider-man FFH, i think nick is just trying to see what mysterio is up to


while id love to see kang be the storyline here i think they already did the time travel thing so they wont again.


i think secret invasion is still on the table but wouldnt be shocked if they go with the illuminati

I'm curious if the audience will have an hard time maintaining investment without the narrative spine of Cap and Iron Man. I really wanna see what they do with the FF and Doom. Curious about GOTG3 and have mild interest in Spidey. I have to imagine Black Panther 2 will do well regardless. The other stuff though...if it was me I'd build around the FF and Black Panther. Have the FF be the super hero team of the 60s. Super popular and silver age-y. A major threat - they fight it are presumed dead but they were really trapped in a pocket universe (Doom was with them) that felt like an hour for them but was 50 years or whatever. They come back all aww shucks optimism but its now. Fish out of water shit. Reed was besties with Black Panthers grandpa or something so there is an instant connection there. Namor comes out of seclusion when Sue reappears.

I want to see the annihilation wave

[wease]

After this next wave of stuff, I would imagine they’ll be chomping at the bit to get the X-Men/Wolverine up and running. He’s Marvel’s most popular character. No way they’re not already making plans for him.

I’m actually more excited to see them do the FF. Whatever Phase they’re introduced in would have to build up to Galactus somehow.

People are talking about She-Hulk though.

Multiverse has been discussed in Thor: Dark World and Doctor Strange already so it's a possibility that Mysterio's telling the truth.

I'd love a Miles + Peter team-up movie but we'll see.

Shang-Chi is going the first movie from Marvel that has an actual chance of not hitting. I know that has been said about Iron Man and GotG and many other of their films but this one is even lower-level than the others as far as being 'known'. Though reading the wiki article about him and the film I found this:

In 2006, Shang-Chi was chosen as one of the many properties in Marvel Studios' new film deal with Paramount Pictures, along with Captain America, Nick Fury, Doctor Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack, Black Panther and Cloak and Dagger.[48]

And now I wonder at who said "hey, let's make a Power Pack movie!"

That's brilliant.

Man, if DC had been handled right, they could be at their peak right now pickup up on all of the people wanting more superhero stuff while Marvel figures out it's next phase. But here we are.

[bune]

Yes. But also there's Comicon coming up where they're going to lay out P4 and it's exciting.

[CopperTom]

I thought Phase 4 was going to be a lot Skrull / Kree. With Phase 5 featuring The Elders.

[wease]

Power Pack is a brilliant move. All about kids getting powers from aliens? It’ll be huge.

[CopperTom]

I think they should maybe try a villain movie sooner or later. Dr. Doom or Magneto would work.

[CopperTom]

IMO, one flaw of the MCU has been subpar super villians. Instead of a shitty big bad, I think having a good guy fighting a good guy only at the end realize it was a misunderstanding. It would help introduce more characters faster. It happens a lot in comics, but it's only happened on screen in Civil War. X-Men v. The Defenders or FF v SS or GotG v. SS. As I've said elsewhere, Silver Surfer could potentially be the biggest and most important MCU character moving forward. He has interactions with just about every group (except the Xmen). He'll be CGI so he won't age. No "real" actor to want out. He was once one of Marvel's biggest IPs. That was pre-cartoons, video games and movies. There's love for Norrin out there.

I'm hoping for New Mutants.

Ant man and the wasp vs alien vs Predator
