10 Ways Marvel Can Stop The MCU From DYING

If it might sound like a bit of a contradiction of some of the prior points on this list, there is one thing the MCU can do to try and curry fans' favour without just lazily bringing the departed O.G. heroes back.

And that's get the X-Men and Fantastic Four onboard as soon as damn possible.

We know that they're both joining the MCU eventually, what with Deadpool 3 primed to rope Fox's X-Men universe into the mix ahead of the MCU's own iteration of the group, and a Fantastic Four movie is tentatively booked in for a May 2, 2025 release.

These are two highly identifiable brands to even the most softcore comic book fan, and would potentially cause lapsed MCU viewers to at least pay attention to what's going on.

Of course, these two sub-brands need to be handled properly and rushing them to the table won't help much in the long run, but it's absolutely where Kevin Feige and company should be focusing their energies if they want to retain the engagement of general audiences in short order.
