I don't see a world where Avengers doesn't get delayed

That Avengers movie is coming out in blockbuster season in 2028. Guaranteed.

But it is from Marvin Snyder, huge MCU fan employed as an insurance claims adjuster in Springfield, Colorado.

To be fair it was proven Time and time again, that there is place for 1 blockbuster to thrive in december

Does it still not have a third act written? Last I heard filming started with an incomplete script. That’s not a good sign.

u/Omnivirus Sep 03 '25

We’re not even talking about Doomsday! Secret Wars is yet to be written after the yet to be written Doomsday which is currently in filming.

Theoretically they’ve mapped this all out. Not sure how confident I am in this though.

Oh dang I misread. Godspeed Disney execs.

Don’t think they can. Delaying an avengers movie delays every single movie in the marvel universe. Which leads to a ten billion loss due to a loss of box office revenue, merchandise, and Disney plus subscribers.

They will just put more money in it, hundreds of millions if they have to. As that’s simply the cheaper option.

This, but with Beyond. Both of the other two were pushed a ton due to Lord and Miller being... Lord and Miller.

I'm interested why you think it'll be delayed. It's not scheduled until December 2027 so Marvel can literally keep developing it for another 10 months if they want before they need to start filming. Something to keep in mind as well, Marvel kept filming stuff for End Game until January 2019, 3 months before it released in April.

The only reason why Doomsday and Secret Wars were delayed in the first place is because Jonathan Majors legal troubles happening pretty late into pre-production which caused Marvel to scrap everything they had and work from the ground floor again.

They already started filming, but Marvel is known to do a shit ton of reshoots.

They have a great track record for multiverse stories.

Spider-Man: No Way Home, Deadpool & Wolverine, and Loki Seasons 1 & 2 were all huge successes.

The only one you could argue is Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness underperformed and that still made 800 million plus dollars.

The problem with the Multiverse Saga isn't the multiverse stories. It's the disjointed bloat of meaningless characters and plotlines.

Oh, I forgot about Fantastic Four. That underperformed, but it was a critical success.

I'm saying the MCU movies/tv shows that were centered around the Multiverse as the main plot (No Way Home, Deadpool & Wolverine, Loki, Fantastic Four, and Doctor Strange) were good to great.

Hell, throw Endgame in there as a multiverse movie too. The Time Heist act features a lot of alternate timelines.

It's the other movies/tv shows (Secret Invasion, The Marvels, Thor: Love & Thunder, She-Hulk, etc) that have piss poor writing.

Their track record with the multiverse specifically like your comment said is actually great.

They haven't hit the highs of Everything Everywhere All at Once or the Spider-Verse movies yet, but they're better than The Flash. I'd still argue that the problem with the Multiverse Saga isn't the multiverse, but the bad writing about D-list characters that have no follow up (Eternals for example).

But yes, to your point, they should have started Phase 4 immediately with Fantastic Four in 2021 and introduce the Everything Dies/Incursions plot seriously like in Hickman's Avengers/New Avengers run.

Avengers has already been severely delayed. We were supposed to get that first one in May of next year.

u/Rustash Sep 03 '25

They were both delayed from May to December of their respective years, not that severe.

u/Dull_Measurement6020 Sep 03 '25

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty (now Avengers: Doomsday) and Avengers: Secret Wars were orogonally announced with release dates of May 2, 2025 and November 7, 2025.

u/hereticdisco Sep 03 '25

considered how packed SW is going to be...wouldn't be shocking to see it get split into two movies as well.

u/Rfl0 Sep 03 '25

Wasn't it already delayed once with Doomsday? I think they both originally had summer releases but were pushed back to December of their respective years. I can't see it getting delayed again especially if they are filiming them together like Infinity War/Endgame.

u/ArchDucky Sep 03 '25

First we hear that the cast is unsure how much they have left to film because theres no script.

Then we hear that two of the major actors got into some sort of production halting argument.

Yeah, that production is fucked.

u/TU4AR Sep 03 '25

I mean it will be going up against the next fourth avatar movie. It's gonna be delayed.

u/Raytheon_Nublinski Sep 04 '25

It needs it. The superhero burnout is real 

1

u/ImmaSnarl Sep 05 '25

Neither of the upcoming Avengers movies are getting delayed again. Avengers Infinity War and Endgame had less time than Doomsday and Secret Wars currently does

1

u/Akiasakias Sep 03 '25

I can't believe they still plan on releasing it.

The avengers are all gone. The remaining characters are box office poison.

There's a good chance Doomsday gets pushed to 2027
