Every upcoming Marvel Studios movie and TV show
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the most successful film franchise of all time, having grossed more than $18 billion worldwide -- $4B of which it made in 2018 alone. And despite the fact that Marvel Studios will soon release its 22nd film, 2019 could eclipse previous years in terms of not only box office, but also cultural impact as the franchise shows no signs of slowing down. With Disney finally confirming three new MCU TV shows for its upcoming Disney Plus streaming service.
Now, as the Infinity Saga comes to a close, and we celebrate the badass women of the the Marvel universe, Captain Marvel vies for the level of impact Black Panther had last year. This year maintains the MCU's three-movies-per-year average with these releases:
But that's all Marvel and Disney have confirmed. Beyond that, we don't know what comes after the next Spider-Man movie. We know the dates the next few Marvel Studios films will debut (eight random dates, in fact), but not which films will be attached to those dates. (We also have a list of every Marvel-branded film and TV show coming this year.)
Over the last few months, however, reputable Hollywood sites like Variety, Deadline and The Hollywood Reporter have begun reporting on not only the next few MCU films we could see, but -- thanks to the forthcoming Disney Plus streaming service -- some of the new MCU TV shows as well, three of which were just confirmed by Disney itself.
Earlier MCU shows like the Netflix shows and ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. were and are produced by Marvel TV, under the guide of Executive Vice President and Head of Television Jeph Loeb. But they were never explicitly referenced by the movies.
The Disney Plus series will be overseen by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige and will reportedly have bigger budgets than what's typically allocated for television shows.
With all that in mind, here's what we expect over the next few years, both rumored and confirmed. And we'll be sure to keep this list updated as things change.
No word on when the Black Panther sequel will take place -- yet. Check back again after Avengers: Endgame.
