After the release of “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” in theaters, Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) fans are facing a year-long void without new Marvel content on the big screen. The next Marvel Studios film, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” won’t be out until July 2023, followed by another six months before “Avengers: Doomsday” hits theaters. With the highly anticipated releases of Spiderman and Avengers behind them, it appears that Marvel is focusing on “Black Panther 3” and “X-Men” for their post-Fantastic Four future, as reported by Variety. Unfortunately, “Blade” and even a potential “Deadpool 4” are taking a back seat for now, which seems surprising.
What is Marvel’s Mystery Movie in 2027?
Currently, Marvel Studios has scheduled a release for a movie on July 23, 2027. This upcoming film appears to be set within the timeframe between “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” Given this placement in the timeline, it’s reasonable to assume that the movie will unfold on Battleworld, a planet composed of diverse realities.
In our discussion, let’s consider which character could best suit this setting. First up is Doctor Strange, whose latest film, “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” grossed close to a billion dollars. It seems fitting for Stephen Strange to conclude his trilogy with an adventure on Battleworld. Additionally, Shang-Chi would be well-suited for this scenario as he’s due for a follow-up. According to 2022 reports, the rumored subtitle of his sequel was “Shang-Chi and the Temporal Wreckage.
When Will Black Panther 3 Take Place?
Instead of Jake Schreier’s rebooted X-Men movie coming before Secret Wars, our best prediction leans towards a Marvel film directed by Ryan Coogler, which could be Black Panther III. This is our leading contender for the unknown Marvel movie slated for release in 2027, following Doctor Strange and Shang-Chi. In fact, the Battleworld scenario could feature Shuri as Black Panther or an older version of T’Challa II, who was introduced in the post-credits scene of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
What’s the appearance of the Kingdom of Wakanda when compared to the realm known as Battleworld? We’ll get a fresh perspective on Wakanda soon through the Eyes of Wakanda animated series on Disney+, produced by Coogler. After finishing with Sinners, Coogler may be eager to complete his Black Panther storyline in a grand manner. Now, let’s start guessing who might portray the adult T’Challa II in this upcoming film!
Regarding the upcoming X-Men project, the Variety article mentioned that Marvel Studios intends to cast newcomers instead of established stars for the roles of young mutants. This move is aimed at reducing costs and mirrors Marvel Studios’ approach during Phase One. The focus will be on portraying the X-Men as youthful characters, similar to the original X-Men created by Lee and Kirby or as they appeared in the animated series X-Men: Evolution. It’s clear that MCU content may not be as frequent as it was during Phase III, but rest assured, it’s here to stay for a while yet.
