Phase 4 Schedule OFFICIAL Lineup

[Spongeocto4]

I’m concerned that the She-Hulk logo went from punky and cool to “General Hospital” feeling. I hope this doesn’t indicate a weird shift in tone for the project.

She-Hulk is a potentially weird wild card. Not just because the hulk properties are seemingly cursed, but the series will be a comedy. In the original source material, Jennifer Waters AKA She-Hulk frequently breaks the 4th wall, similar to Deadpool.

Though, I'm happy with Tatiana Maslany's casting. If you have seen her in Orphan Black, then you already know she has no limits in her range in Acting.

I just hope the Marvel Cinematic Universe brand doesn't become diluted with the amount of content they're making, especially with them now branching into animation.

I do worry that as well. Overproduction of content is one of the hurdles that has hinder Star Wars. One benefit that Marvel has over Star Wars, is their variety in material. Star Wars bread & butter is 'intergalactic fighting in space'. But Marvel characters range from every day humans to wizard and witches. Sci-Fi Androids to Space aliens And mythologies based on Norse, Greek and Chinese mythos and more. Basically, something for everyone.

For those of you who are planning to wait until Eternals is on Disney+, you may be waiting longer than planned. In a new report from Streaming Guider, Disney is delaying the Disney+ debut of the film to January 12, 2022. This would extend the film's theatrical window to 70 days, instead of the initial announced 45 day window.

If this report is true, then it shows Disney is likely abandoning the idea of immediate streaming upon release. Before this, Shang-Chi's Disney+ debut was bumped from an estimated October 18th date to November 12th for Disney+ Day.

In my opinion, immediate streaming was never a financially great idea.

In my opinion, immediate streaming was never a financially great idea.

I agree, I'd rather theaters be in a financially stable position than have the instant gratification of immediate streaming.

Deadline announced today that Shang-Chi's director, Destin Daniel Cretton, has signed a deal with Marvel. This officially greenlights Shang-Chi 2 and a new Disney+ series, with the latter pontentially being connected to the film.

[Spongeocto4]

Thread updated, as Marvel Studios and Sony agreed to a new deal over Spider-Man. The third entry will be released July 16, 2021. This also tenantively means that 2021 will be the 1st time that 4 MCU movies will be released in one year.

Over two years later(and dates being reshuffled more than once), this fact finally came to fruition.4 MCU* movies were released in 1 calendar year (Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Eternals, and Spider-Man NWH).

The next time this could happen would be 2024 (The Marvels, Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Ant-Man & Wasp Quantumania, and possibly the Fantastic 4 reboot).

*Venom 2 didn't count. So it was only 4.

Mr. Murdock's work isn't over yet.

Daredevil is being reported to be rebooted for a Disney+ run, with Charlie Cox likely to reprise his role as Matt Murdock AKA Daredevil. Cox recently reprised the role in a brief cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home, working as Peter's Lawyer.

Unlike the original series, which took mainly in it's own semi-connected universe, this version will be connected to the MCU.

While not confirmed to return (yet), Vincent D'Onofrio also reprised his Daredevil villian role of Wilson Fisk/Kingpin in Hawkeye. In that show, his fate was left up in the air by his "Niece", Echo (who will be getting her own Disney+ series as well).

Disney recently got the TV Rights back for their Marvel Netflix Shows, after leasing them to Netflix. A Moratorium contract clause prevented Disney from immediately reusing the Netflix/Marvel characters, 3 years after their respective shows were officially canceled.

After years of much speculation, Nova is officially set to be introduced into the MCU. Whether his comics will be adapted into a Film or Limited Series, is unclear.

A brief summary of the character:

Nova first appeared in an 1966 issue of Super Adventures was member of the intergalactic police force known as the Nova Corps, for which he gained superhuman abilities including enhanced strength, flight and resistance to injury. While the character didn’t have many run-ins with some of the main figures of the current or past MCU, he did have some battles with the Skrulls, who have big parts in recent and upcoming Marvel projects including Captain Marvel and the limited series Secret Invasion.

Nova Corps has already made an appearance in the first Guardians of the Galaxy film and are expected to be integral to the new Epcot ride, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.

One long standing theory, is that Harley Keener from Iron Man 3(played by Ty Simpkins) will be retconned as the new Nova. We'll see if that pans out.

Today there were two significant change ups.

First Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania and The Marvels(AKA Captain Marvel 2) are switching release dates, with Quantumania returning to it's initial February 2023 window:

Ant-Man 3, previously dated for July 28, 2023, now goes four months earlier on February 17. Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels, previously on that February date, now goes to July 28 next year.

While no exact reason was given, it may have to do with the miniseries, Secret Invasion being rumored to be delayed til 2023. Secret Invasion and The Marvels will both featured Nick Fury (who will also appear in Quantumanina) and the switch might have to do with keeping the Marvel storylines airing im the correct order. It was revealed in Spider-Man: Far From Home, that Talos and his wife had been impersonating Fury and Maria Hill, while the real Fury was aboard a SWORD spaceship heading to parts unknown.

The second news, is that Director Jon Watts is stepping away from the Fantastic 4 reboot. Watts departure is described as amicable with Marvel, with Watts wanting to take a break from Superhero movies. Watts directed all 3 Tom Holland's Spider-man movies, and as Deadline implied in a separate article, he may want to return to 4th Spider-man installment over Fantastic 4.

Production of Fantastic 4 would of likely began this year for the likely November 2023 slot.

RUMOR: Moon Knight may get a 2nd Season, as a recent tweet implied that tomorrow's Moon Knight Series finale, might be a Season Finale.

If true, this will the 3rd Disney+ Series to score a 2nd Season, after Loki and What If...? .

[Spongeocto4]

It's officially official.

Mr Murdock, welcome back.

EDIT: IGN is reporting that the Disney+ series will be a continuation of the Netflix's Daredevil series, instead of being a reboot.
