The next film Avengers will mark a decisive turning point for Marvel, that’s for sure. A small upheaval is preparing for the MCU. Here’s what we know about it.
The MCU is about to take a new course. While The 4 fantastic first steps Mark the start of the end for the multiverse saga, Kevin Feige begins to talk about what comes after. And obviously, Marvel Studios does not intend to slow down. A new saga is already in preparation. And according to Feige, Avengers: Secret Wars will not be a conclusion … but a new start.
A new saga already in the pipes after Avengers?
During a round table with several journalists, Kevin Feige confirmed what many suspected. Marvel is already working on the next three phases of its cinematic universe. As a reminder, a saga at Marvel is three phases. After the Infinity Saga (phases 1 to 3) and the multiverse saga (phases 4 to 6), a third saga will start soon.
And it’s no coincidence that FEIGE talks about this now. Because everything that is currently happening in films, and especially in Avengers Secret Wars, will have a impact direct On this new era. Marvel already plants the seeds of what comes next.
Secret Wars: a real turning point for the MCU
If Endgame marked the end of a cycle, Avengers Secret Wars aims for something else. Feige says it clearly: this time, it is not a question of concluding, but of restart. The idea? Come back to a unique time linesimpler and more readable. After several years juggling with the multiverse, this new direction should clarify things. And no, it’s not a reboot. Feige even avoids the word. He prefers to talk about transition. A transition to a new generation of heroes, with more connected stories … and perhaps more accessible.
This “gentle reset” with Avengers could also make it possible to introduce X-Men in the MCU, but also recast Some cult characters. Tony Stark, Steve Rogers… Feige does not close any door. The studio clearly envisages a universe where new faces can embody old heroes. It would be a way to develop the MCU without starting everything again. It is not yet known when this new saga will officially start. Nor what will be the first films that will compose it. But the main lines are there. And Marvel obviously wants to take his time to do things well.
