Avengers: Secret Wars Theory Makes A Compelling Case About How The MCU Could Reset

Okay, let’s talk Marvel. The MCU is *still* a massive draw, with new stuff hitting both cinemas and Disney+ all the time. Everyone’s buzzing about what’s next, and honestly, all eyes are on *Avengers: Doomsday* and *Secret Wars*. The exciting part? The Russo Brothers are directing those! There’s a lot of chatter about Marvel potentially hitting the reset button, and a popular theory surrounding *Secret Wars* actually makes a ton of sense as a way to do just that. Let’s dive into the details and see what’s going on.

Details about *Avengers: Doomsday* are scarce, and even less is known about *Secret Wars*. Because the multiverse is now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, almost anything is possible. A recent Reddit theory suggests that *Secret Wars* could lead to a completely new MCU, with maybe only one or two characters – like Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards – remembering the previous shared universe.

Longtime viewers of the Marvel films might remember the joyful ending of *Days of Future Past*. The movie concludes with Hugh Jackman’s character, Logan, finding himself in a new reality where all of the *X-Men* are alive and well. He’s the only one who still remembers the terrible future that was prevented, and everything he did to change it.

Disney+ offers streaming access to Marvel Cinematic Universe and X-Men content. A new plan with ads starts at $9.99 per month. You can watch without ads for $15.99 monthly, or save 16% by paying $159.99 for an annual subscription. See the deal here.

This is just a fan’s idea, so it’s probably not completely accurate. However, the fact that people are so excited and speculating about the next two *Avengers* films could mean good things for the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is especially encouraging considering some recent challenges, like the disappointing box office performance of *The Marvels*.

Marvel has had some recent wins, like the record-breaking box office performance of *Deadpool & Wolverine*. Fans also seemed to enjoy *Thunderbolts* and *The Fantastic Four: First Steps*. However, it remains to be seen whether the upcoming *Avengers* movies will be as financially successful as the previous ones.

Both *Doomsday* and *Secret Wars* have a lot of exciting potential. Beyond Robert Downey Jr.’s return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, *Doomsday* will feature a large team of heroes, including some of the original *X-Men* cast members. While the exact plot is still unknown, The Russo Brothers have a strong track record of successfully handling large-scale Marvel stories, thanks to their previous work.

It’s still uncertain whether the Marvel Cinematic Universe will truly start over after *Secret Wars*, as some suggest. While it would be a significant gamble, a reset could open the door for fresh stories and projects, free from the constraints of the past ten-plus years of films.

The next Avengers movie, titled *Doomsday*, is scheduled to come out in theaters on December 18th of next year. Following that, *Secret Wars* is planned for release on December 17, 2027. Fans are hoping to hear more official details soon.
