Absent from the big screen in 2020, pandemic obliges, Marvel has made up for it in 2021. And does not intend to stop there, with no less than six feature films already planned. Follow the leader.
For the first time since 2009, no Marvel film has been released in theaters in 2020, due to the pandemic and theaters closed or forced to set up gauges. The House of Ideas has fortunately made up for it this year with, first, three MCU opuses, then Venom 2 before Spider-Man No Way Home comes to conclude the exercise with a bang.
While the film worn by Tom Holland, Zendaya and villains from the previous adaptation of the adventures of Spider-Man is breaking theatrical records, close-ups on what Marvel has in store for us next year on the film side. On the program: real shots, the multiverse, animation, legacy and the Christmas spirit.
2022: THE SIX EXPECTED MARVEL FILMS
MORBIUS
With a film set in the same universe as Venom, which we could also cross, while the presence of the Vulture played by Michael Keaton in Homecoming has been confirmed by the first trailer. Does this mean that the Spider-Man of Tom holland will he be there too? Answer January 26.
DOCTOR STRANGE 2
Unveiled at the end of the credits of No Way Home, the first images announce some psychedelic scenes and especially a confrontation between Strange and… himself. Or rather its evil version, discovered in the animated series What If…? All under the direction of a certain Sam Raimi, back in the world of superheroes fifteen years after the release of Spider-Man 3. To say that we are in haste is an understatement.
THOR 4
Chris Hemsworth will obviously be present, the Guardians of the Galaxy too (to make the connection with the end of Endgame), Christian Bale will be a villain nicknamed the Slayer of Gods and Natalie Portman will make his comeback. And could even inherit Thor’s powers, if the storyline follows the comic books from which it is inspired.
SPIDER-MAN NEW GENERATION 2
A teaser in the form of an extract which hinted at the new animation techniques, closer to 2D, which will be at work in certain sequences. And allowed us to discover Miguel O’Hara, aka Spider-Man 2099, voiced by Oscar Isaac in VO. Will it be the big bad? Or a future ally of Miles Morales against an even more formidable enemy? Response, no later than fall 2022.
BLACK PANTHER 2
Marvel shouldn’t fail to pay a vibrant tribute to the star of the movie phenomenon of 2018, as the odds are in favor of T’Challa’s sister Shuri to pick up the torch and outfit. Unless the interruption of filming linked to the injury of his performer Letitia Wright, as well as the concerns caused by his refusal to be vaccinated, push the production to change course.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY – HOLIDAY SPECIAL
A film that promises to be brief (about 40 minutes), happy and funny, and should serve as an introduction to Guardians of the Galaxy 3, currently in filming and scheduled for release on May 3, 2023 in theaters. We don’t know what this Holiday Special will be about yet, but we can’t wait to see what goodies Rocket will be giving and receiving.
