The MCU (movie) safe-bet until 2030

Kevin Feige has made it clear from now on there will only be roughly 1-2 MCU movie releases per year for the foreseeable future. As of right now there are currently 4 release dates scheduled for 2028 that include the following:

2-18-2028

5-05-2028

11-10-2028

12-15-2028

At the rate Marvel is removing release dates the only safe option is that the December, 2028 release date is the only 1 that will stay. Marvel will not go back to 4-films per year for the foreseeable future. We know that Avengers: Secret Wars is being teased as a new beginning for the MCU with a reboot incoming.

My prediction for the MCU now stands with:

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (7-31-2026)

Avengers: Doomsday (12-18-2026)

Avengers: Secret Wars (12-17-2027)

X-Men (12-15-2028) (just pure speculation)

Fantastic Four 2 (12-14-2029) (just pure speculation)

Marvel sadly is in a position where they need the General Audience now more than ever and I don’t see them gambling with Shang-Chi 2, Eternals 2, Sam Wilson’s Captain America Trilogy, etc. I know alot of MCU fans won’t like that Marvel will recast Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, and T’Challa but it’s the safest bet for Marvel.

This doesn’t even go into how rendered down MCU tv is now with only Daredevil: Born Again continuing for the foreseeable future. I’m curious on everyone’s thoughts

Its the ones who just randomly say stuff who are always the most offended. Noone was thinking that

Why do you think the other 2028 release dates will move?

Forsaken_Tip_5962025-10-05 23:25

It’s just the way Marvel has done here lately. Their new favorite release dates are July & December.

The February 2028 release date is way too close to Avengers: Secret Wars and the November 2028 release date is way too close to when I think X-Men will release. That only leaves May and December release dates and more than likely if Marvel does release 2 films in 2028 the may release will probably move to July.

I can't really see them only releasing 4 movies over 3 years over year end holidays. Really was hoping for Dr. Strange 3 maybe between Doomsday and Secret Wars. Sucks we haven't got a Shang-Chi 2 as I'm assuming the 10 rings play a big part.

I’ve been here since Iron-Man in 2008. 1-2 movies per year used to be the norm until Phase 3 and then after the Pandemic Marvel just went insane releasing way too many projects per year

Shang-Chi 2 is probably a safer bet considering the original did pretty well at the box office but yeah, it's looking rough for Sam, The Eternals, and even The Thunderbolts. It's possible that positive critical reception will save The Thunderbolts but as for the others...less likely. I don't think Cap 4 was received very well. Not because of racism though, although there are some "fans" who are like that, it just wasn't a great movie. I watched it on a plane ride and it felt very...mid. Entertaining enough to pass time, I guess, but then again I watched it for free as in-flight entertainment. Everyone already knows how boring people thought The Eternals was.

I think if Shang-Chi 2 does happen it will be the longest wait inbetween movies we’ve seen with the 1st one releasing in 2021 and its sequel easily won’t release until atleast 2030. 9 years is a long time.

I agree with everything you said though about Brave New World.

ThatOneAnnoyingBuzz2025-10-06 05:26

It *is* a long wait but I think that's the result of how in-flux the entire movie schedule has been. It's been in development for a while, the director stepped away to work on Kang Dynasty before that was scrapped, that alone I think paints a pretty clear picture of how everything moving around probably messed with the timeline of the movie releasing

Shang Chi is one of the movies that made a profit at the box office and had positive reception so I can't see them scrapping him.

I think that’s why they went on and announced Simu Liu as apart of the cast for Avengers: Doomsday. We truly don’t know who’s going to live or die in the 2 Avengers films and I’m expecting alot of deaths.

I know DDC is directing Spider-Man: Brand New Day and is eventually signed on to make a Naruto live action movie. We don’t how many films he had on his MCU contract

Your conclusions are based on a lack of information.

* They already said in early 2024 that the goal after this saga is 2-3 movies per year & 2 show seasons per year.
* Shang-Chi 1 was a hit, so Shang-Chi 2 wouldn't be a gamble.
* A Fantastic Four sequel is already in development.
* X-Men movies are already confirmed, not just speculated.
* Born Again won't be the only show. Wonder Man comes out in a couple months. The Punisher special & Vision Quest are out next year. The Champions crossover is still in development. There are still talks for a 2nd season of Hawkeye.
