User blog:SwagMasterDbl/My Vision for Phase Four



I've been thinking about this and wanted to put it down somewhere. Then I figured why not blog this? I bet most likely other people on the wiki have already made a blog about this same topic but I'll still do my own lol.

Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 are supposedly supposed to be the conclusion to the first three phases which have been focusing on the first roster of the Avengers and the Infinity Stones arc. Marvel has stated that Phase Four will be different. These are my predictions for the new Phase.

Characters
First and foremost, the "center" Avengers, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and Thor, will not be the center of attention anymore. I'm thinking most likely at least one of these characters are gonna die in Avengers 3 or 4. Probably would be Iron Man or Captain America.

So who would take up the spotlight? Well, I think we all think Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Ant-Man, and Spider-Man will fill up that role and make up the New Avengers. The original "spotlight characters" would be either dead or more in the background. If Steve Rogers doesn't die, I think he might keep the Nomad title and either Bucky Barnes or Sam Wilson would take on the Captain America title, like in the comics (not gonna lie, I wanna see that happen.)

What about the other minor characters? For example, Black Widow or Scarlet Witch. I think they can both stay on the Avengers, and I'm hoping Black Widow gets her own solo movie. Of course I think the roster of the smaller Avengers will continue to grow as before, being joined by characters such as the Wasp.

Meanwhile with the Guardians of the Galaxy, I'm thinking based off of something I read, Vol. 3 will be the final movie for the first roster. And then a Vol. 4 would introduce a completely new roster of Guardians. Of course, Adam Warlock will be a center part of both Vol. 3 and Vol. 4.

Now what about the movie/tv crossover everyone so badly wants? This is not confirmed, but I heard something that Daredevil is in talks to make an appearance in Avengers 4. If this is the case, that would be the perfect first crossover, as Daredevil is the most well-known Defender. Avengers 4 or not, I think Daredevil should be the one who makes the first appearance to maybe ease the other Defenders in to the movies for small roles.

Meanwhile, I think Phase Four is the perfect opportunity to bring S.H.I.E.L.D. and Phil Coulson back in to the movies. Especially since Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will likely stop after the fifth season. S.H.I.E.L.D. is already coming back in Captain Marvel's first movie, but that is taking place in the 90's. In Phase Four, S.H.I.E.L.D. coming back fully into the present day is the perfect way to bring in Quake, Ghost Rider (hopefully Johnny Blaze will be introduced properly at this point, although I love Robbie Reyes as well), and the Inhumans. The Inhuman Royal Family will probably also make their way into the movies if this is the case.

I could include my future vision for the tv series into this, but that's a whole other blog for another day.

Movies
I'll be honest, I don't wanna predict an exact line-up, but I'll put the obvious ones down here along with maybe a couple new ideas.


 * MCU Spider-Man 2 and 3 (already confirmed)
 * Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (already confirmed) and Vol. 4
 * Doctor Strange 2 (semi-confirmed)
 * Captain Marvel 2 (modern day this time)
 * Black Panther 2
 * Ant-Man 3
 * Black Widow
 * Captain America 4? (with Bucky/Sam Wilson in the lead) (might work better if the new Cap just pops up in another movie)
 * New Avengers
 * One or maybe two new superhero introduction films (ideas: Blade reboot [a netflix series would probably be better though], Fantastic Four reboot [assuming they can get the rights], and Nova)

The list is kinda crowded so I highly doubt all of these will make it.

Conclusion
So tell me what you think. Feel free to add your own points in the comments as well. I may make a similar blog for my future vision of the television side of things, but only if I can come up with enough points to make first.
