Both that film and the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming were the only two projects confirmed by Disney, and though the likes of Black Widow and Doctor Strange 2 will surely follow, Marvel Studios' slate from 2019 onwards is still a mystery that probably won't be answered until the dust has settled on Avengers 4.
But, ignoring for a second all the logistics that prevent certain projects from gathering steam, whether that be the divide between Marvel TV and Marvel Studios stopping our beloved Daredevil from breaking out into the big screen, or the pace of the Disney-Fox merger slowing the implementation of the X-Men and Fantastic Four, what should Marvel include in their fourth phase?
With the Marvel mythos presenting endless opportunities for fresh and exciting stories, here are the films they should look to include ASAP.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
