I assumed someone would have already told people this but just in case they haven't. Go onto Marvel's official website, click on the movie calendar (actually click it don't just hover) and scroll down pass the Marvel Unlimited advert. You will see the logos for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Avengers: Doomsday, BLADE and Avengers: Secret Wars in that order. No release date for Blade but this suggests that we might see a positive update soon (SDCC?)

I have enjoyed every MCU film I have ever seen to various levels. I don't think there has ever been one where I came out of the cinema saying I wasted my money, that said someone has to be at the bottom. I am not including the Disney+ shows as they feel like they should get a separate ranking
Spider-Man: No Way Home
Shang-Chi
Thunderbolts*
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
Deadpool & Wolverine
Black Widow
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
The Marvels
Thor: Love & Thunder
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania
Captain America: Brave New World
Eternals

If the film does well, sure why not. Thunderbolts* feels like a Black Widow 2 in the same way that The Marvels was Captain Marvel 2, continuing most of the cast's arcs along with Yelena seemingly being the film's POV character. Captain Marvel 3 seems less likely not because of the crybabies who couldn't handle Brie Larson or the character of Carol Danvers but because The Marvels was Marvel Studios' first legitimate financial failure so if Thunderbolts* makes money they will probably continue as a Thunderbolts 2 but if it doesn't, the characters will probably continue elsewhere

I think there are two mostly options.
A) Mr. Negative - Martin Li was introduced during the Brand New Day arc and is basically the only new villain that stuck around.
B) Doctor Doom - Based on Brand New Day being released between Doomsday and Secret Wars and the fact that Tom Holland wasn't part of the announced cast, they might want to dedicate Spider-Man 4 to Peter reacting to Doom looking like Iron Man

I feel like the villain may end up being Shathra from the JMS run or the Spider-Queen from Spider-Island

What If... Howard the Duck got Hitch. This episode is going to be hated for being a filler episode despite it being about Howard the F-ing Duck and Darcy Lewis

I think 2027 is the most likely for Brave New World for one reason. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier took place in 2024 and don't see Marvel saying that Sam Wilson has been Captain America for five years before his first film. 2027 is only three years into his career which is enough time for him to be established as the new Cap enough for the President to call him in but still recent enough for Sam to deal with the #notmycaptainamerica arc from the comics

OK I dare you to watch this and the Captain America: Brave New World trailer and then tell me that Marvel is all the same

It doesn't matter if we want it or not, it will happen. Either Doctor Doom is literally a Tony Stark variant or he happens to have the same face but either way we will see Spider-Man react to and fight Doom. I suspect the "Our friend is our enemy" dynamic for the 616 heroes will be the main focus of Doomsday while the Mr. Fantastic/Doctor Doom relationship will be the main focus of Secret Wars

It might be overdone but revenge is Dar-Benn's motivation to fight Captain Marvel along with pure hatred. Dar-Benn blamed Carol for Hala becoming nigh-uninhabitable as a result of destroying the Supreme Intelligence after the events of the first film.

Majors was always going to be replaced after being found guilty of assault, but it would have just been a new actor as Kang if it wasn't for Quantumania underperforming with fans and the box-office and he would have more reason to be heartbroken if they kept Kang with another actor, not that it would him any good. In reality Kang was set up more on Disney+ than he was on film and frankly a small number of the casual audience would have watched Loki than Quantumania so they wouldn't know that he was going to be the next big bad. Doom is going to appear in three upcoming films
I have had an epiphany regarding the central theme of the Multiverse Saga and how RDJ's Doctor Doom perfectly concludes this arc. Every film and show that has been focused on the Multiverse has been about how the choices we make can completely change your own reality.
Loki asks the question "do we have the free will to make our own choices" with He Who Remains having the TVA intentionally remove anyone who makes a choice that he didn't like because he is scared of what he knows his variants will choose if they have the opportunity before Sylvie kills him, committing to the choice she made the moment she and Loki reached the Citadel. This is continued in S2 with Loki choosing to break the Temporal Loom and sacrifice his own freedom so that the Multiverse can keep theirs.
What If...? is about the Watcher showing us how even by making a different choice, the core of who you are remains. Agent Carter and Captain Carter are both as noble as Captain America which is why Steve loves her, despite what Baron Zemo thinks the Super-Soldier Serum would not corrupt her either.
No Way Home is about whether or not villains have the choice of redemption. Doctor Strange believes that these characters are threats and if sending them back to their universes means that they die then they made their fate whereas Spider-Man believes if they can be cured they won't harm anyone else and therefore they won't die fighting his variants.
Multiverse of Madness is about accepting the consequences of the choices you already made and if you are really happy with how your life turned out. Strange choosing to leave Christine to protect her from the Sorcerer Supreme life while Scarlet Witch obsesses over her choice to let go of her children for Westview and goes on a rampage rejecting the life she has without them.
Quantumania is the hardest to fit into this arc but we do see Ant-Man choosing to help Kang despite the danger he poses to the world in order to save Cassie and Scott's choice to defeat him despite Kang's warning after he betrayed him was clearly meant to lead into The Kang Dynasty before the change.
Deadpool & Wolverine has Deadpool choosing to save his universe from destruction to protect his friends and family despite having the option to leave his universe and live in the MCU.
RDJ Doom could be the story of how Tony Stark chooses to go down a dark path as a result of his kidnapping by the Ten Rings and decides that since the governments of the world haven't done it, he will stop crime by ruling the world with an iron fist and Doomsday could show him "protecting" his world by destroying all that risk an Incursion, including 616

The MCU always makes very layered costumes so I am sure Doom's armour will look great. Honestly the prototype suit that RDJ wore for the Comic-Con reveal looked good for what it was. If you saw someone wearing that suit as cosplay it would be decent cosplay, you would look at that say "yep, that is clearly Doctor Doom" so I'm not worried

Black Panther 3 will absolutely happen at some point, and I would adapt Doomwar but with whoever is the 616 Doctor Doom not RDJ since I don't think his variant will survive after Secret Wars

Punisher in my opinion Frank Castle is at his best when he is an anti-heroic antagonist who gets in the way of the real hero from dealing with the villain. The one and only solo Punisher book I like is King of Killers where The Hand was working for Frank because the way they retcon Punisher's origins actually makes him feel like a Marvel character and Punisher fans hate that book

The film follows Doctor Doom's perspective like Infinity War did for Thanos. The origin which would be shown in flashbacks is taken from the What If book Iron Man: Demon in an Armour in which instead of Victor von Doom attending university with Reed Richards, he attends with Tony Stark, Doom finds Tony infuriating because he works incredibly hard for what he has whereas Tony was born into a life of privilege and doesn't seem to care about studying. Doom develops a begrudging respect for Tony's intelligence despite his distain for him and invites him to work on a project with him but tricks Tony and swaps minds with him. The present events of the film show Doom travelling across the multiverse and "saving" the universes of different franchises by removing a piece of before Incursions can destroy them. By the end of the film Doom creates Battleworld

Eventually yes, I think Johnny Blaze or Danny Ketch will probably join the Midnight Suns but not anytime soon since they have already committed to Blade and that film seems to be cursed so unless they officially scrap that film, they should get that film to a good standard before announcing any other Midnight Sun projects.

"Kang variants were dealt with by the TVA after Loki S2." That is how Marvel can hand wave Kang being gone, he was the main antagonist of Loki and Quantumania and now he's gone. If they wanted to still use him for a role in Secret Wars, they can use him for the role that the Molecule Man variants played

Focused on just Carol Danvers? No, focused on Carol and Kamala Khan? Possible

I want to see the Fantastic Four and the Thunderbolts to team up with the Avengers against Doctor Doom but in terms of solo characters I want to see Doctor Strange and Black Panther to appear in because Strange and Doom have a very complicated respect for each other in the comics which reaches its peak during Secret Wars where he is Doom's right-hand man in Battleworld and Doom was the main antagonist of the Black Panther comics when Shuri took over from T'Challa as the Black Panther which ended with Doomwar
