On December 2019, Reynolds confirmed a third Deadpool film was in development at Marvel Studios, with Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin writing the film by November 2020, when Reynolds’ involvement and the film’s R-rating were confirmed.
Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman will be making an appearance in the movie as his character, Logan and actors Karan Soni and Leslie Uggams will reprise their respective roles as Dopinder and Blind Al from the previous Deadpool films.
Fantastic Four
Release date: Feb 14, 2025
At San Diego Comic-Con in July 2019, Feige announced Marvel Studios was developing a Fantastic Four film for the MCU. Even though the movie will not be about the Fantastic Four origin, we can expect a new storyline for the superheroes.
There has been no official cast confirmation, so we have no idea yet if John Krasinski will return as Reed Richards after he (briefly) appeared in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty
Release date: May 2, 2025
At San Diego Comic-Con in July 2022, Marvel Studios announced Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. It will be directed by Destin Daniel Cretton as director. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania writer Jeff Loveness is writing the screenplay. Jonathan Majors will reprise his role as Kang the Conqueror.
Avengers: Secret Wars
Release date: May 1, 2026
Michael Waldron will write the screenplay for this, after previously serving as head writer for the first season of Loki (2021) and the writer of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Besides these confirmed MCU Phase 6 movies, Marvel has three unannounced films set for release on July 25 and November 7, 2025, and February 13, 2026.
Sadly we have no information on the TV shows that will be arriving during Phase 6. However, there are rumours that some TV shows are in development, including a Wakanda series said to explore the origin story of Okoye (played by Danai Gurira) and a Nova series.
We could also see the second seasons of previously released series too.
