The Avengers Take a Breather Before Assembling

The new team of Avengers requires just a bit more training before they can undertake another assignment. Marvel Studios announced on May 22 that the upcoming Avengers films, Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, have been delayed. Originally set for release in May 2026 (for Doomsday) and May 2027 (for Secret Wars), these films will now premiere on December 18, 2026 (for Doomsday) and December 17, 2027 (for Secret Wars). The Russo Brothers, who previously directed Avengers: Endgame in 2019, will once again be at the helm for these movies. Robert Downey Jr. is set to reprise his role as Doctor Doom in both films, alongside a massive ensemble cast.

Disney has rebranded several upcoming movies from “Untitled Marvel projects” to “Untitled Disney projects,” affecting titles scheduled for February 13, 2026; November 6, 2026; and November 7, 2027. The only Marvel films left on the 2026 calendar now are Doomsday and Spider-Man’s fourth installment, Brand New Day, set for release on July 31, 2026. This leaves an entire year between The Fantastic 4: First Steps and Brand New Day, which is the longest break in Marvel movies since the COVID pandemic. There are three dates reserved for Marvel films in 2028: February 18, May 5, and November 10. However, it’s not very probable that one of these will be the anticipated Blade film.
