All 23 Upcoming Marvel Movies & Shows (2025, 2026, & Beyond)

Recently, Marvel Studios hasn’t been as busy as usual when announcing new projects (probably because of the new approach by its president, Kevin Feige). That’s why there are only four MCU movies with confirmed release dates at the moment. Still, there are plenty of announced TV shows and MCU movies that have not yet set release dates. So, with that said, let’s look at all of the upcoming Marvel movies and shows that will be released (soon).

Editor’s Note: This list was updated in May 2025, after the release of Thunderbolts* and reflects the most recent changes.

Armor Wars (TBA)

In January 2011, Don Cheadle confirmed that a War Machine film was in development, with Joe Robert Cole hired to write the script. In December 2020, it was announced that Armor Wars, a TV series for Disney+ starring Cheadle as War Machine, was in development.

The series was set to explore Tony Stark’s death and its impact on James Rhodes, with production originally slated for 2022. However, in September 2022, it was reported that Armor Wars would be redeveloped into a theatrical film, with Dominique Thorne’s Ironheart also expected to appear.

X-Men ’97 Season 2 & 3 (TBA)

Following the incredible success of ‘X-Men ’97’ Season 1, we’ve soon learned that 2 additional seasons are in development. Work on the second season of the series began in July 2022, with writing for the finale starting by July 2023.

However, in March 2024, head writer DeMayo was fired after an investigation into sexual misconduct, including allegations of inappropriate behavior toward staff. Marvel removed his credits from the second season in June 2024 following breaches of his termination agreement, and DeMayo publicly denied the misconduct accusations.

By July 2024, Matthew Chauncey was hired to replace DeMayo and oversee the rewrite of the second season and the development of the third season.

Black Panther 3 (TBA)

Absolutely nothing is known about this movie except that Denzel Washington will have a role in it as the actor has recently confirmed that Ryan Coogler is writing him a role. Coogler also recently confirmed that fans won’t have to wait long for the movie.

Ryan Coogler’s Wakanda-Set Television Series (TBA)

Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther movies have been very successful, especially the first one, which broke many box office records. In that regard, Coogler was reported to be developing a series that will be revolving around Wakanda. And this was part of an overall deal between Coogler and Disney.

Things are unclear about the movie and how it will fall into place in the grander scheme of things in the MCU. But what we do know is that the series will be set in Wakanda and is likely going to follow familiar characters that we’ve already met in the past.

Blade (TBA)

Our favorite vampire-hunting character will return to the big screen as Blade will see a return. Besides a quick cameo in the ‘Eternals’ movie, we know nothing about the upcoming ‘Blade’. The only thing that we know is that Mahershala Ali will be playing Blade.

Of course, the production was paused for a while when Ali was not satisfied with the script, and recently, the movie was removed from Disney’s release slate after being delayed several times. The future of the movie is still a big question.

Doctor Strange 3 (TBA)

A third Doctor Strange film is in early development, according tothe most recent reports, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Charlize Theron set to reprise their roles as Doctor Strange and Clea. The film will adapt the Time Runs Out comic storyline and serve as a precursor to Avengers: Doomsday. Sam Raimi is confirmed to return as director. The film is expected to explore key events leading up to Avengers: Doomsday.

Some recent rumors claimed that Denzel Washington will play Dormammu and that the movie will involve Black Priests, taking into account Washington’s role in Black Panther 3, those reports are now under question.

X-Men Reboot (TBA)

In March 2019, Marvel Studios regained the film rights to the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool after Disney acquired Fox, with plans to integrate them into the MCU. In October 2020, the X-Men and Fantastic Four films were rebranded as “Marvel Legacy films” on Disney+.

Characters from the X-Men series made appearances in the MCU, such as Evan Peters as Ralph Bohner in WandaVision and Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. A new X-Men film reboot for the MCU entered early development in September 2023.

Shang-Chi 2

By December 2021, development on a Shang-Chi sequel had begun, with director Destin Daniel Cretton returning to write and direct. Simu Liu, who plays Shang-Chi, was expected to return and wanted the sequel to explore his character’s “newfound power” from the ten rings and his role in the larger MCU.

However, by November 2023, Cretton stepped down from directing Avengers: The Kang Dynasty to focus on the Shang-Chi sequel. In April 2024, Liu confirmed the film was still in development, although Cretton was later chosen to direct a higher-priority Spider-Man film in September 2024.

Spider-Noir (TBA)

Spider-Noir is an upcoming television series developed by Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot for MGM+, based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man Noir. The series, part of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, follows an aging private investigator and superhero in 1930s New York City.

Nicolas Cage stars as Spider-Man Noir, reprising his role from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), with a supporting cast including Lamorne Morris and Brendan Gleeson. Filming began in August 2024, with the series set to debut on MGM+ and consist of eight episodes.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse (TBD)

Following the release of the extremely successful ‘Across the Spider-Verse’, we now await the finale installment in the Miles Morales-centered franchise. The movie was in active development. We don’t have a release date, however, at this time.

Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool/X-Men Crossover

Ryan Reynolds might return as Deadpool, but not in a solo movie this time. Instead, he’s thinking about making a film where Deadpool teams up with a few X-Men characters. Reynolds is writing different versions of a movie that would include three or four X-Men characters.

Deadpool would still appear, but not as the main character. Reynolds thinks that by putting Deadpool in a smaller role, the X-Men can shine in fun and surprising ways.
