Avengers: Endgamebrought the originalAvengersroster to an action-packed and emotionally charged end, but Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has now confirmed that the superhero team will return…just not yet. Asked recently whether audiences would ever see anAvengersteam-up on the big screen again, Feige revealed that it was inevitable.
“I would have to think so. I would have to say yes, at some point.”
Despite having already had a huge influence on the modern cinematic landscape,Marvel Studiosstill have big plans for their future endeavors.Avengers: Endgamesaw the studio bring together a vast array of characters from across the shared universe for a comic book movie epic that felt like an ending to the last decade of movies, but it will also serve as a new beginning, with MCU set to introduce all sorts of new characters and ideas moving forward. With this in mind, is there any room for theAvengersanymore? A team-up that now seems rather quaint when stacked up against what the MCU has in store.
Marvel’s Phase 4, which begins this month with the Disney+ seriesWandaVision, is already looking incredibly jam-packed.Black Widowwill begin the cinematic ventures for Phase 4, should it ever be released, with a total of 11 movies slated to follow, not to mention several TV series premiering on Disney+ that will intersect with the MCU and add the ever-growing universe.
Previously,Kevin Feigehas already stated that there will not be anAvengersmovie in Phase 4, which makes sense considering the amount of movies and shows already involved. “We had a movie this year called Avengers: Endgame, and it is very much an ending, as you saw, to so many of those characters,” he said in 2019. “So Phase 4 is about beginnings, and Phase 4 is about learning new things about characters you already think you know, like Black Widow; meeting incredible new characters like The Eternals and Shang-Chi[.]”
Marvel’s Phase 4 is set to introduce audiences to the likes of Shang-Chi inShang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, which findsSimu Liu as the titular master of martial arts, who is forced to confront his past after he is drawn into the Ten Rings organization. Due for release later this year,Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Ringswill be followed up withEternals, which stars an ensemble cast including Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lauren Ridloff, Brian Tyree Henry, Salma Hayek, Lia McHugh, Don Lee, Kit Harington, Gemma Chan, and Barry Keoghan. The movie follows the Eternals, who have hidden themselves for thousands of years, must re-unite to protect Earth from their enemies, the Deviants.
All of that is without even mentioningMs. Marvel, Kate Bishop,She-Hulk,Moon Knight, andIronheart, as well as the rebootedFantastic FourandBlade. Who even needsThe Avengersanymore?
Phase 4 also includes several sequels such asSpider-Man 3,Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,Thor: Love and Thunder,Black Panther II,Captain Marvel 2,Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, andAnt-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Once theAvengersdo return, they are sure to have a very different line-up. This comes to us fromIGN.
