MCU: The Marvel Cinematic Universe Official Discussion - Part 1

[Keyser Soze]

If what we've heard so far is true, Hulk & GotG 2 might be the same movie, assuming GotG doesn't tank.

If that were indeed the case, my revised lineup would be:

MAY 2016: Captain America 3
JULY 2016: Doctor Strange
MAY 2017: Thor 3
JULY 2017: Guardians of the Galaxy 2/Hulk
NOVEMBER 2017: Black Panther
JULY 2018: Black Widow
NOVEMBER 2018: The Inhumans
MAY 2019: Avengers 3

You think they would go for Kamala if they made a solo Ms Marvel film? Not sure as she's so new (although it would be interesting) and I guess most would want the classic Danvers. Rambeau could be in with a shout too.

A Ms. Marvel movie I assume would feature Kamala. Captain Marvel would be Danvers.

 

[cph9fa]

Looks like 2017 will be the year we finally get 3 Marvel movies. Awesome!

After Ant-Man, Cap 3, Dr. Strange, Thor 3, and assuming the May 2019 slot is Avengers 3, I think the four remaining slots will be (in no particular order):
GotG2 (and/or Nova)
Captain Marvel
Black Panther
Inhumans

I know a lot of folks are rumoring Hulk in GotG2, but (just a thought here) what if he ends up as a cameo in Dr. Strange?

 

[an_ewok]

BW & Hawkeye would be cool, even if starring Widow as the primary character. I don't really want a strictly solo Widow film (don't want a solo Hawkeye either).

I don't know about a solo Hawkeye, but I would lurv a Hawkguy movie, featuring Pizza Dog!

 

[Darkraid]

I would believe Dr. Strange to be in 2016 with Cap 3. Due to the fact that they are shooting in 2015. Why would they wait another year to release Strange? So I guess the 5 movies does not include Cap and Strange. Also I don't think Marvel would only release 1 movie in 2016. IGN states that there are 2 more films that was not included in the news piece from Marvel. Here is what they predicted.

Guardians of the Galaxy: August 1, 2014
Avengers: Age Of Ultron: May 1, 2015
Ant-Man: July 17, 2015
Captain America 3: May 6, 2016
Untitled Film: July 8, 2016
Untitled Film: May 5, 2017
Untitled Film: July 28, 2017
Untitled Film: November 3, 2017
Untitled Film: July 6, 2018
Untitled Film: November 2, 2018
Untitled Film: May 3, 2019

However, 9 movies for phase 3 seems a bit overkill. Let me try to predict based on this.

Ant-Man: July 17, 2015
Captain America 3: May 6, 2016
Doctor Strange: July 8, 2016
Thor 3: May 5, 2017
Black Panther: July 28, 2017
GOTG/Hulk: November 3, 2017
Black Widow/Hawkeye: July 6, 2018
Ms. Marvel: November 2, 2018
Avengers 3: May 3, 2019

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Ok, now I can believe in an extra long Phase 3.

 

[Iceman]

A Ms. Marvel movie I assume would feature Kamala. Captain Marvel would be Danvers.

Could work.

I don't know about a solo Hawkeye, but I would lurv a Hawkguy movie, featuring Pizza Dog!

Haha

 

[Comicbookguy339]

If Avengers takes the May 2019 spot then we'll have 8 movies between Avengers 2 and Avengers 3. Right now I'm sure we'll have Ant-Man, Cap 3, Thor 3, Guardians 2 and Doctor Strange. That leaves room for three more movies. We have 4 candidates, however.

We're left with Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Inhumans and a solo Hulk film and Marvel will choose three.

 

[cph9fa]

Ok, now I can believe in an extra long Phase 3.

And a year with 3 films!!!

So we know that there will still be 2 movies a year and if Avengers takes the May 2019 spot then we'll have 7 movies between Avengers 2 and Avengers 3. Right now I'm sure we'll have Ant-Man, Cap 3, Thor 3, Guardians 2 and Doctor Strange. That leaves room for two other movies. We have 4 candidates, however.

We're left with Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Inhumans and a solo Hulk film and Marvel will choose two. Gonna be tough (although I would go with Carol and Inhumans).

Check again. There are three dates in 2017 -- a previously-announced date in May, as well as the new July and November dates.

Why do we have to choose?

Give us everything! t:

 

[Son of Coul]

If 2019 is indeed A3, then damn -- gonna be massive buildup to that showdown. I always say that length =/= quality nor "teh epic" but you gotta figure that figurative finale to a lot of these characters is gonna have to at least crack 2hr30min. And three in one year? As long as they pull it off, no complaints coming from here. t:

 

[Comicbookguy339]

Yeah, edited my post. I forgot about the may 2017 movie. in this case we might pretty much get everything we could ask for in phase 3. Amazing.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

And a year with 3 films!!!

I read that the 2017 May date has now because a 2017 July date. So perhaps it is still two films, just different dates now.

Phase 3, how I think it will go:
Ant-Man (July 2015)
Captain America 3 (May 2016)
Dr. Strange (July 2016)
Thor 3(July 2017)
Inhumans (November 2017) This would give something for SW and QS to do outside of the Avengers
Iron Man 4 (July 2018)
Guardians of the Galaxy/Hulk 2 (November 2018) Lead-in to Avengers 3
Avengers 3 (May 2019)

 

[cph9fa]

I remember Feige called Phase 3 a Battle Royale in terms of choosing which movies to include. Looks like they took Stark's advice:

 

[Duran Man]

What I'd like to see:

May 5, 2017: Thor 3
July 28, 2017: Ant-Man 2
November 3, 2017: Black Panther
July 6, 2018: Guardians of the Galaxy 2
November 2, 2018: Inhumans
May 3, 2019: Avengers 3

 

[R_Hythlodeus]

best news I've read today

 

[Loki882]

Black Panther, Captain Marvel, and Black Widow seem to be the three leading contenders for non-sequel films. Inhumans is also a possibility, given Feige's past comments and their current push in the comics. So the real question is, when is the big reveal going to happen?

 

[OB12]

Wow, this is a lot of Marvel goodness! My guesses:
May 2016 - Captain America 3
July 2016 - Dr. Strange
May 2017 - Thor 3
July 2017 - GotG/Hulk
Nov 2017 - Black Panther
May 2018 - Iron Man 4
Nov 2018 - Inhumans
May 2019 - Avengers 3

All this while getting DD, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Defenders through 2017 probably and future seasons of AoS and Agent Carter. The MCU is exploding!

 

[Comicbookguy339]

Would like to get a confirmation about 2017 - two films or three films?

 

[Rock Sexton]

Sheeesh ..... 2019 before I get to really see Thanos in all of his glory?

Kind've a buzzkill for me personally.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Avengers 3 Is most likely July 2018.I don't see them waiting 4 years after age of ultron since Avengers sequels Is MS biggest films.

Thor 3 will be one of 2017 films.If they do a GOTG/Hulk film that would likely come out in
2017.

For there to be Iron Man 4 before third avengers Robert Downey JR has to agree to do another film besides the 2 avengers sequels he agreed to do last year.

 

[Comicbookguy339]

Sheeesh ..... 2019 before I get to really see Thanos in all of his glory?

Kind've a buzzkill for me personally.

He might be the main antagonist in Guardians 2 as well.

 

[Kurne]

This announcement just screams Black Panther. He's gotta be in there. BP's been talked about the most among the "working on it" projects.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Black Panther and Carol Danvers please.

 

[Rock Sexton]

This announcement just screams Black Panther. He's gotta be in there. BP's been talked about the most among the "working on it" projects.

I had no doubts. Ultron at some point in A2 is going to be made from Vibranium so that means they're going to start dropping the references to Wakanda and BP.
