Secret Wars ending

What do we think about the Secret Wars rumor? The fact that portions of the MCU will be reset. Personally I don’t really like that idea. Seems more like a cash grab to say that “Iron Man and Captain America are back now. Here’s some new merchandise” Maybe I just don’t trust Marvel not to screw it up.

I don't think it would ever be as successful as the previous movies and stories. The odds of people embracing a new Iron Man, Captain America, and so forth like they did the previous ones are just so low. How would it even work? Are they going to come in from other universes and just stick around? They just step into 616 and everyone just moves past the details so they can get to the new stories more quickly? Sounds like a mess and a reason for casuals to step away even more.

I don't know, maybe that should have meant that Gunn's Superman is a box office bomb instead. But it wasn't.

Unless you are dogshit (as in Fant4stic level of ass from the get go), every single reboots (new iteration of the character) ultimately had fans, and made money.

That Superman movie was the start of a new franchise, not the continuation of the old one. This wouldn't be starting a new franchise, it would be continuing one that has been going for nearly 20 years. That's a whole other challenge.

That’s not a “fact.”

We don't know what Feige meant by "reset", we can only speculate.

Reset to singular timelines. I would assume that would mean no more multiverse and just one universe with all the heroes. Or a new multiverse but no access to other timelines. Feige said eventually characters like Iron Man and Captain America would be react. Eventually, not soon.

Lots of people have misinterpreted his comments as a reboot like DCU with all dead characters and actors who no longer want to continue roles recast.

It’s not a rumor, it’s more of a fact

They sort of have to.. they’re resetting it to one single timeline and universe so they can introduce stuff like the X-Men and Fantastic Four etc etc without multiverse shenanigans.. and they got *really* messy recently soo a reset like this is the best possible way they can erase things fans didn’t like, put things into the universe without having to explain why, and your issue which is recasting old heroes

It’s.. not really that big of a cash grab? I mean, it’d be hard to continue the MCU over years and years and years without, like, THE heroes at the forefront. Also like another comment said, reboots happen all the time. Batman (1989) to Batman Begins, to Batman v Superman, to The Batman (2022).. Superman (1978) to Superman Returns, to Man of Steel, to Superman (2025).. etc.

The 'reset' means incorporating the X-Men and the Fantastic Four into the mainline MCU after Secret Wars. People are conflating that with Feige speculating that roles like Tony Stark could be recast at some point in the future. There's not going to be a recast Iron Man and Cap immediately after Secret Wars.
