Marvel Studios has finally unveiled the first trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
While filming on the sequel might’ve wrapped in March, the studio has been rather tight-lipped regarding the film. In fact, outside of casting news from the trades and a few leaked product images, not much has been known about Wakanda Forever. Thankfully, the studio has finally given fans an official first look at the highly-anticipated film.
Following the unfortunate passing of Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman in 2020, many have questioned how Marvel Studios would approach the follow-up to the billion dollar first installment. It was expected that Letitia Wright‘s Shuri would take up the mantle of Black Panther, which looks to be the case by the trailer. While it remains unclear how Boseman’s T’Challa is written off, the film is expected to be in honor of the late actor.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was directed by Ryan Coogler from a script he co-wrote with Joe Robert Cole. It stars Wright, Danai Gurira, Angela Bassett, Lupita Nyong’o, Winston Duke, Michaela Coel, and Tenoch Huerta. Dominique Thorne also makes her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut as Ironheart in the film. Wakanda Forever hits theaters on Nov. 11, 2022.
With She-Hulk: Attorney at Law set to debut on Disney+ in August, Marvel Studios has debuted a new trailer for the series. The trailer was unveiled during the studio’s presentation at Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con.
The new trailer, which can be seen below, should ease concerns fans had regarding the CGI in the show. She-Hulk‘s overall look is much cleaner than in the first trailer, and her comic’s accurate costume is on full display.
Joining Maslany in She-Hulk are Mark Ruffalo, who returns as Brace Banner/Hulk, Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky/Abomination, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry. Benedict Wong is also confirmed to reprise his role as Wong in the series.
She-Hulk‘s first season, which consists of 9 episodes, will premiere on Disney+ on August 17th. Like with the other shows, She-Hulk will follow a weekly release plan.
Marvel Studios teased a continuation of Sam Wilson’s journey as Captain America at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier when the title card changed to Captain America and the Winder Soldier. Yet, while plans for a movie were announced shortly thereafter, Marvel Studios never confirmed the project. With the news of a director boarding Captain America 4 earlier this month, it’s not surprising that Marvel Studios has officially announced the project as part of its Hall H presentation at San Diego Comic-Con.
The film, titled Captain America: New World Order, will star Anthony Mackie‘s Sam Wilson as he takes over the Captain America mantle.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier head writer Malcolm Spellman penned the script with Dalan Musson, a staff writer on the show. Julius Onah, who helmed The Cloverfield Paradox, is on board to direct the film.
Captain America: New World Order is slated to hit theaters on May 3rd, 2024.
With the return of San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios’ legendary Hall H panel was back for SDCC 2022. Back in 2019, Marvel Studios laid out the first part of the outline for the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 4. Now, in 2022, the mega panel closed out the day in Hall H in style with major revelations and exciting information and footage for fans. If you missed our live coverage of the event, or if you are looking for all the Marvel Studios SDCC news in one place, we’ve got you covered. This article contains a summary of the panel and hits all the newsworthy highlights.
While some wondered if Marvel Studios would truly bring major surprises to SDCC, President Kevin Feige immediately shocked fans by announcing that Phase 4 of the MCU has almost nearly already come to an end. Phase 4 officially ends with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which is only months away. Phase 5, which has previously barely been discussed, is now officially set to begin with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania in early 2023 and end with Thunderbolts, a newly announced title, in the summer of 2024. Not only that, but Marvel Studios released the first information about Phase 6. Phases 4 through 6 will indeed be titled, the “Multiverse Saga”, and will end in a two-part Avengers event. Check out everything—in release order—below.
Phase 4
Marvel Studios made the shocking reveal that only two projects are left in Phase 4 of the MCU. Both She-Hulk and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever revealed new posters and trailers.
She-Hulk — August 17, 2022
As the next project to be released in the MCU, it comes as no surprise that Marvel Studios spent a little time on She-Hulk. Set to debut on Disney+ on August 17, the cast of the series arrived in Hall H:

A poster and final trailer for the series dropped at SDCC, which includes training montages and 4th wall breaks. It also confirms that Charlie Cox’s Daredevil will be in She-Hulk. Check it out below:

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever — November 11, 2022
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was certainly one of the most predictable inclusions in Marvel Studios’ SDCC panel considering it is the MCU’s next feature film. Still, the sequel to the Academy Award-winning Black Panther closed out the Hall H presentation. Feige was joined on stage by director Ryan Coogler and cast members Mabel Cadena, Michaela Cole, Winston Duke, Danai Gurira, Tenoch Huerta, Florence Kasumba, Alex Livinalli, Lupita Nyong’o, Dominique Thorne and Letitia Wright.
SDCC revealed that the series Echo will hit Disney+ in Summer 2023.
Loki Season 2 — Summer 2023
The second season of Loki is also slated for Summer 2023, though after Echo.
The Marvels — July 28, 2023
Even though Ms. Marvel just ended to critical acclaim and with a tease to the Captain Marvel sequel, no new information about The Marvels was shared. It is still scheduled for a July 28, 2023 release.
Blade — November 3, 2023
There was no additional information on the upcoming Blade film led by Mahershala Ali. But the film was given a release date of November 3, 2023.
Ironheart — Fall 2023
The Disney+ series following Riri Williams, Ironheart will release in Fall 2023.
Agatha: Coven of Chaos — Winter 2023
Following Marvel Studios’ first streaming project, WandaVision, a spinoff focusing on Kathryn Hahn’s character, Agatha Harkness, was announced. At SDCC ’22, the spinoff was given a new name and a tentative release date. Agatha: Coven of Chaos will start streaming on Disney+ in Winter 2023.
Daredevil’s solo series starring Charlie Cox in the MCU was not a major part of the SDCC panel. Still, not only did we learn that the series would be titled, Daredevil: Born Again, but it will consist of a whopping 18 episodes. It will begin streaming on Disney+ sometime in Spring 2024.
Captain America: New World Order — May 3, 2024
Marvel Studios teased a continuation of Sam Wilson’s journey as Captain America at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier when the title card changed to Captain America and the Winder Soldier. Yet, while plans for a movie were announced shortly thereafter, Marvel Studios never confirmed the project. With the news of a director boarding Captain America 4 earlier this month, it’s not surprising that Marvel Studios has officially announced the project as part of its Hall H presentation at San Diego Comic-Con.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier head writer Malcolm Spellman penned the script with Dalan Musson, a staff writer on the show. Julius Onah, who helmed The Cloverfield Paradox, is on board to direct the film. It will release May 3, 2024.
Not only did Marvel Studios surprise by announcing the entirety of Phase 5, but Kevin Feige kept going, giving audiences a look at what looks to be a massive Phase 6, beginning with Fantastic Four on November 8, 2024. Phase 6 will end in a duo of Avengers films entitled Avengers: Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. Phases 4 through 6 are officially coined the “Multiverse Saga”.
Fantastic Four — November 8, 2024
In 2019, Kevin Feige blew up SDCC with the announcement that Marvel Studios was set to unleash their own Fantastic Four film after acquiring the property in the merger with Fox. Jon Watts was brought on board to direct the film but recently left the project. While there’s no new director on board, the film does now have a release date.
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty — May 2, 2025 Avengers: Secret Wars — November 7, 2025
Like Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame did for Phase 3 and the Infinity Saga, the fifth and sixth Avengers films will close out Phase 6 and the Multiverse Saga. Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars release May 2 and November 7, 2025, meaning there are only about six months between the release of the two films. Not much else is known about the two-part event, but it confirms many fans’ speculations that the current saga’s big villain would be Kang the Conquerer and end in a Secret Wars-inspired multiversal event.
At the Marvel Studios Animation Panel at San Diego Comic-Con, information on the awaited animated series X-Men’97 has started to be revealed. While the main X-Men team generally looks the same as the original series, a heavy-hitting supporting cast will join them.
Other names include Cable, Bishop, Forge and Morph. The X-Men will need the help as it was revealed they are set to go up against heavy hitters Sebastian Shaw, Emma Frost, Callisto, Val Cooper, and Mister Sinister, who is set to be the series’ main villain.
Marvel Studios and Disney+ are looking to tell more X-Men stories. It was announced today during the Marvel Animation panel that the second season of X-Men ’97 is officially in the works. The first season, which is a reboot of X-Men: The Animated Series, will bring back many members of X-Men: The Animated Series’ voice cast, as well as some of the creatives behind the beloved cartoon.
X-MEN '97 – Marvel reveals a 2nd season is already in development. But the show won't debut until Fall 2023.
Marvel Studios went all in on nostalgia when they chose to develop a revival of X-Men: TheAnimated Series as a streaming project for Disney Plus. A first look at the project was revealed at SDCC ’22 and it came with one major surprise: the X-Men will have a new leader in the series.
— Murphy's Multiverse (@MultiverseMurph) July 22, 2022
Magneto will be leading the team when X-Men ’97 streams on D+! And, as they were in the giving mood, the creative team also provided a first look at the Master of Magnetism as he’ll appear in the series when it hits Disney Plus in the Fall of 2023.
When the animated series What If… ? first dove into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, one of the first character it introduced was Captain Carter. A variant of Peggy Carter from the Captain America franchise, Carter went on to take the super soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers.
Captain Carter made a surprise appearance in live-action in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness where she was a member of the Illuminati. Her character was the first to make the jump for animation to live-action, so her presence in the Doctor Strange sequel raised many questions. Primarily, fans have wondered if the Captain Carter seen in What If… ? was the same variant in Multiverse of Madness.
Marvel Studios confirmed at their animation panel at San Diego Comic-Con that the two Captain Carters are indeed variants of one another. Importantly, that means that the What If… ? Captain Carter did not die at the hands of the Scarlet Witch. It also means that both the animated and live-action future of What If… ?’s Captain Carter, voiced and played by Hayley Atwell, may be bright.
What If…? was Marvel Studios first animated series and it looks like they plan to get mileage out of the concept. Before an episode of Season 2 of What If…? streamed, the studio confirmed the development of a third season during the Marvel Studios Animation panel at SDCC ’22.
— Murphy's Multiverse (@MultiverseMurph) July 22, 2022
Realistically, the show could continue for any number of seasons as the concept lends itself to pretty much any minor change to 616 continuity that a creative team could imagine. The first season stuck almost exclusively with retelling the stories of Marvel Studios films with just one minor change. Future seasons could trend closer to the concept’s use in the comics where some fairly wild stories were told.
Marvel Studios first animated series, What If…?, premiered last year and was well-received by critics. Spinning out of the events of Loki, which opened up the multiverse, the first season of What If…? spanned nine episodes and explored alternate realities where things didn’t play out exactly the same as they did in the since-officially-named 616-universe. It was always part of the plan to tell more of these alternate reality stories and now fans know when to expect Season 2.
As part of the first-ever Marvel Studios Animation panel at San Diego Comic-Con, the release date for Season 2 of What If…? was revealed. Season 2 of the streaming series is headed to Disney Plus in early 2023!
