Marvel’s Comic-Con Schedule Reveals an Unprecedented First for the MCU

Since the 1970s, is introducing the Red Hulk, but how X-Men characters like Wolverine and Deadpool will be integrated into the MCU still remains a mystery.

On top of that mystery, the biggest MCU property of all — the Avengers — has an uncertain future. While Avengers 5 was previously called The Kang Dynasty, that changed in late 2023. As of now, we don’t know what Avengers 5 is called or what it’s about. The good money is that Avengers 5 will become the previously announced Secret Wars, but because Marvel is setting aside an entirely separate panel for the MCU’s future, it feels very likely that the plan for the next few Avengers movies won’t resemble any kind of previously announced roadmap.

Marvel could have saved the Captain America: Brave New World trailer for Comic-Con, but it didn’t. They could have combined Deadpool & Wolverine hype with a panel on the MCU’s future, but it didn’t do that either. That implies the Marvel camp is announcing something big. The greatest MCU twist in years might not happen in Deadpool & Wolverine, but on the floor of Comic-Con.

Deadpool & Wolverine hits theaters on July 26, 2024.
