Marvel Reportedly Changing Plan For Secret Wars Movie (Rumor)

Marvel Studios will reportedly be making big changes to its 2026 release plans Avengers: Secret Wars.

Four years have passed since 2019 Avengers: Endgamebut fans will have to wait over two years for the next time Earth’s Mightiest Heroes gather to take on Jonathan Majors’ Kang in 2025 Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.

But that’s just the beginning of the blockbuster antics, as this will follow just a year later, in 2026 avenger 6 – a multiversal epic that is expected to bring back some well-known Marvel icons.

These two May dates may remain as they are for now, but many are expecting both avenger Blockbusters are coming later as Marvel Studios is making a series of delays on its upcoming MCU roster, although that might be a good thing.

Marvel Splitting Avengers: Secret Wars in Half?

In a recent tweet from The Cosmic Circus Alex Pereza well-known insider asked his followers to name things they don’t expect from Marvel Studios “On the way to Secret Wars movies.”

When a follower questioned his use of the plural of “Movies” in relation to Secret WarsPerez simply replied with a GIF of The office to be announced by Stanley Hudson “I stuttered,” The multiversal epic is now expected to be adapted into several films.

Currently, the official timeline for the conclusion of the Multiverse saga is for the story to culminate in 2025 The Kang Dynasty and 2026 Secret Wars.

Marvel Studios Spoilers subreddit moderators, previously shared in February, heard it from trusted sources Marvel Studios had “very, very early talks” about splitting Secret Wars from a movie in two.

Additionally, they noted that phase 7 may be dragged into the Multiverse saga, rather than opening the next saga as previously anticipated.

Why Avengers: Secret Wars Needs Two Movies (And A Delay)

Marvel Studios is currently in the process of figuring out the stories for this avenger 5 And avenger 6, with Jeff Loveness and Michael Waldron writing the two screenplays. When this happens, the team is likely to get a better sense of how to do it Secret Wars Justice that may require two films.

Secret Wars is truly a massive story with so much potential and tons of unique opportunities to explore. Many comic book fans have said since the film’s announcement that the story should take at least two parts to do it justice, and if those reports are true, Marvel Studios may have come to that conclusion.

Alongside the Beyonder, who is rumored to be a Kang variant in the MCU, Doctor Doom serves as the secondary antagonist of Secret Wars. Perhaps splitting the adaptation into two films, coupled with a delay, will allow it to be featured in one Fantastic Four Sequel and appear in at least one of the parts.

This could ultimately lead to the Kang-centric, three-movie closure that many will be excited to hear, as Hollywood just can’t get enough of Jonathan Majors. Not to mention that this leaves plenty of extra time for more exciting cameos and shocking surprises that the MCU has become famous for.

The Kang Dynasty And Secret Wars A delay seems inevitable now that Marvel Studios is pushing back much of its movie and series slate. After all, these delays inevitably have a domino effect leading to the next avenger Blockbuster has been delayed by at least a year.

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty hits theaters on May 2, 2025 and Avengers: Secret Wars follows on May 1, 2026.
