Hello
6 Upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies After ‘Avengers: Endgame’
Warning: Potential spoilers for ‘Avengers: Endgame’ ahead.
Now that we’re in the ‘Endgame’ (literally), many of us are finding it hard to bid goodbye to our favourite characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and of course, the ‘Avengers’ franchise.
Fans may start questioning their purpose in life after watching ‘Avengers: Endgame’ – what will we do now that our favourite heroes are either retired or no longer around? What will we look forward to in the future? Is there a glimpse of hope that the Avengers will eventually re-assemble?
Well, the future is uncertain, but what’s certain is where there is a gold mine, Marvel will keep on digging it.Which means that yes, there will be more MCU movies featuring some of your beloved characters coming soon. Here are some of them:
#1 ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’
Fans will be seeing Peter Parker once again and this time, he’s on a summer vacation trip to Europe. He’ll face a classic Spider-Man villain, Mysterio. And if you’re wondering if Iron Man will make an appearance in the movie since he played a pivotal role in ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’, you should know the answer by now.‘Endgame’ director Joe Russo explains that this sequel takes place five years after Thanos’ snap.
Starring: Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Samuel L. Jackson, Jake Gyllenhaal
Premieres: 4 July 2019
Almost every original Avenger has their own standalone movie, so why can’t Black Widow have one? Marvel has already hired someone to write and direct the movie and Scarlett Johansson has confirmed that she’s on board this upcoming project. No news yet on what the storyline will be like for Natasha Romanoff but it may explore who she was prior to joining the Avengers. The movie is expected to start production in June 2019.

You may wonder who on Earth ‘The Eternals’ are, but it seems like they could be the new Avengers. It was reported that Angelina Jolie has been offered a role in the upcoming Marvel movie. ‘The Eternals’ are beautiful god-like beings aged over a million years old and were created by the Celestials as a force for good. In the comic book, the mystical gang is always fighting against the Deviants. Sounds so magical and interesting, huh?

The gang will be back once again, and for the third installment, we feel that a new member may potentially be joining them, as well as a few other new characters (if you can recall the post-credit scene in 'GOTG 2' which featured Michelle Yeoh and Sylvester Stallone). But ever since the big hoo-ha with James Gunn, there’s no clear indication when the movie will be released.
