I hope that Marvel Studios dosen't make the same mistake that Fox did when they're trying to make Channing Tatum his Gambit film set in the Fox X-Men Universe with a bunch of Directors dropping out.
Cause I’m surprised there’s been no rumors or even projects announced since doomsday is filming next month. If so then film wise the saga is only 17 films maybe 18 if it’s now only the Nov date left and no more Feb date, which sure averages to 6 per phase which theoretically sounds ok?
Because if he does, then he will be the Quicksilver in the main X Men team moving forward since Evan Peters already plays his Fox X Men rebooted Timeline Universe version. Unless he dosen't want to come back and Evan Peters will play him in the X-Men since people like his Quicksliver better than A.TJ.
What could be the last two films in phase 6 to join the fantastic four and spider man focus that will be central to the avengers films aka doom and the Symbiote, some want Dr strange 3 cause his sequel was the first big hint back in 2019 that since it has multiverse in the title, and what would you have the film be to fill up the 6 film minimum slots.
Because I think Disney and Universal Studio might have solve their problems at that point with releasing solo Hulk films and they can do any story they want to do.
Cyclops as Jacob Elordi
Paul Mescal as Beast
Jodie Comer as Emma Frost
Milo Gibson as Wolverine
Yetide Badaki as Storm
Francois Civil as Gambit
Olivia Rodrigo as Rogue
Louis Hofmann as Nightcrawler
Andrey Trushin as Colossus
Alyssa Wapanatâhk as Mirage
Dougrlas Henshall as Professor X
Want lineup lineups for X-Men when they make their official appearances (Avengers: Secret Wars) in something new, unique and interesting rather basic and uninspired lineups similar to either 90s animated series or Claremont run. Adding Mirage to the main team would have provided something different to other X-Men adaptations.
The X-men never saw a proper live-action adaptation showing the character relationships and interactions between each other except for Logan. Seeing Cyclops talk to Storm in a friendly manner or Colossus interacting with Nightcrawler or Logan trying to push Gambit into making things clear with Rogue would actually be welcome. We need a classic X-men story and a familiar feeling.
I'd love Wolverine to appear, don't get me wrong! But I'd almost rather he be a more mellow presence, more in a mentorship role than the central figure (Especially as Cyclops needs a lot more attention).
That was always a problem with the X-Men movies; you'd have like two characters front and center and everyone else is just supporting instead of an ensemble, which is what's worked for the MCU historically. If they’d introduce too many characters in one film, none of them are going to get enough screen time for people to care about them.
I'd keep it to a slim roster of 8-9 (not too big, Beast or Emma stay behind at the school until seems his in action) for the opening act allows audiences (old/new) get to known characters with some familiarity so Marvel Studios is not trying to retell origins of the mutant’s again.
4 projects in 2025
Fantastic four
Eyes of Wakanda
Marvel zombies
Wonder man
9 projects in 2026
Dr strange 3
Born again season 2
Vision quest
Unknown special
Doomsday
Spider man 4
Mephisto special
One more film slot I have no idea
Wakanda series
4 projects in 2027
Nova
Spider man season 2
No clue
Secret wars
I got 15 out 17 and if you take out the animated shows and also specials that’s only 12 meaning I only have 10
That matches the amount of empty slots they showed for sdcc 2022, meaning most likely this phase has 6 films and 6 shows again @IronWidowMaikuB and @RJ Plotner
Which means I don’t know their last movie or show slot lol
These Destin Daniel cretton projects are most likely the battlefield projects spider man 4 July 2026, Shang chi 2 nov 2026, maybe they’re shooting it like they are with doomsday and secret wars, which is how they won’t tire him as badly
Then wonder man early 2027
Only other film is Dr strange 3 feb 2026
Daredevil born again season 2 March 2026
Wakanda and nova maybe prequels after May 2026
Vision quest maybe syncs with doomsday like ant man 2 with infinity war, and armor wars is eh
After I understand all SSU movies are connected such as Madame Web, Morbius, and Kraven The Hunter were before the events of Venom Trilogy so we hope that many previous characters like Cassandra, Julia, Anya, Mattie, Eddie, and Venom are most likey to return for Avengers: Secret Wars to help the Spider-Men and join forces with multiple heroes against Kang and Dr. Doom but we should have to wait for Venom: The Last Dance where Venom and Eddie Brock were transported back to their Earth-688 after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home until it will find out how Venom will return in the MCU with or without Eddie Brock before meeting up with MCU Spider-Man and then for Madame Web and her Spider-Women, there is chance that they could shown up again but I was concerned about Sydney Sweeney was confirmed to join the MCU known as Black Cat appearing as a new girlfriend of Spider-Man in the upcoming Spider-Man 4 at 2026 and I hope that Isabela Merced would be interested to join MCU too soon to play some new superhero characters than Anya Corazon while she was playing Hawkgirl in DCU films.
So we have many previous Marvel movies like Elektra movie had received negative reviews until 20 years later, Jennifer Garner’s Elektra was secretly return in Deadpool and Wolverine alongside with Wesley Snipes’ Blade and Dafne Keen’s X-23. We hope Madame Web, Julia, Anya, Mattie, and Morbius would have a promise return and join in the future MCU crossovers than SSU films.

So Marvel Studios didn’t do their usual slate. They didn’t update phase 5 to include Deadpool & Wolverine and other titles and Didn’t reveal phase 6. I liked this panel, but I would’ve liked that! D23 is said to focus more on the TV shows but does anyone think we’ll get an official slate then?
There’s been many articles saying Iger and Feige want to do three films max yet 2026 has 4 slots along with 2025 having 4 too, but silverquake said long ago blade might be delayed again.
Or will they have secret wars pushed to late 2027 to move the 4th slate date of 2025 and 2026 respectively?
If so then what do you think are the missing slots, I’m guessing armor wars, Shang chi 2, and x men despite there being at least 4 without slates which the last one is spider man 4 but that’s a Sony co production so they might actually have to move secret wars to 2028.

Tom Hardy's Venom and Jared Leto's Morbius are likely candidates to make appearances in the crossover event, building on their previous connections to the MCU.
There is potential for other characters like Kraven the Hunter, Madame Web, Spider-Man 2099, and Miles Morales to join the MCU in Avengers: Secret Wars , while Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will also likely return as their Spider-Men.
