10 Biggest Implications Of Marvel's Massive Phase 4 Delay

A Captain Marvel sequel was announced last year, but a release date wasn't revealed at the time. However, you can always rely on Marvel Studios to deliver some good news, as Captain Marvel 2 is now officially set to arrive in cinemas on July 8th, 2022. Most surprising, though, is the fact it's actually been brought forward rather than being pushed back!

Marvel Studios originally had an Untitled Marvel movie coming out on July 29th, 2022, but Captain Marvel 2 has not only taken that slot, but is actually heading our way three weeks earlier than that.

It's legitimately quite surprising that any upcoming blockbuster has received a release date, but something tells us that Kevin Feige probably realised fans would want something to look forward to after this massive release date shuffle, which explains why Captain Marvel 2's slot is now confirmed.

All we know about the sequel right now is that WandaVision scribe Megan McDonnell is writing the screenplay, and Marvel Studios is on the hunt for a new director to take charge of the franchise.
