After kicking off its Comic-Con panel on Saturday by revealing that Phase 4 will end with this year’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever , Marvel Studios moved past the Phase 5 announcements, straight into its post-2024 plans with a few updates of *Phase 6*.
Yes, that’s right, we have three phase updates of Marvel’s Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Similar to The Infinity Saga, the name given at the end of Phase 3 to refer to the early phases of the films, the next trio now has a name of its own (thanks in part, we assume, to Kang!) : The Multiverse Saga.
However, only three movies were shown on screen during the Phase 6 announcement, including two Avengers movies:
- The Fantastic Four will be released on November 8, 2024
- Avengers: Kang Dynasty on May 2, 2025
- Avengers: Secret Wars on November 7, 2025
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige told Deadline after the panel that the Russo brothers are not involved in the next Avengers project. Feige also declined to name the “theme” of the announced phases, telling Deadline that the studio doesn’t usually like to talk about each phase until it’s complete, because “all of our stories are interconnected and we hope that stand out”.

They’re unlikely to be the only three movies in Phase 6, rest assured. When Marvel president Kevin Feige announced the timeline, it was noticeable that titles were missing; maybe we can get something from the open dates and slots shown here:
We may also have more information about these open dates at D23 next September, but for now, we might as well enjoy the possibilities. Earlier at the panel, Marvel also announced their Phase 5 schedule:
- Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania: February 17, 2023
- Secret Invasion (Disney Plus show): Spring 2023
- Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: May 5, 2023
- Echo (Disney Plus show): Summer 2023
- Loki Season 2 (Disney Plus Show): Summer 2023
- The Marvels: July 28, 2023
- Ironheart (Disney Plus show): Fall 2023
- Blade: November 3, 2023
- Agatha, Coven of Chaos (Disney Plus show, renamed Agatha: House of Harkness): Winter 2023-24
- Daredevil: Born Again (Disney Plus show): Spring 2024
- Captain America: New World Order: May 3, 2024

We’ll have a lot of Marvel to overcome in the coming years. 😅
