The Marvel Cinematic Universe isn’t done with the Avengers — but that doesn’t mean that fans should expect more of the same.
Speaking with MTV News at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, studio boss Kevin Feige revealed that Mighty Marvel indeed has plans for its flagship superhero team moving forward — but that said team will look quite a bit different from what we’re used to.
This shouldn’t come as too big of a shock, because in terms of brand recognition, the Avengers name is without equal in the world of mainstream film. Each of the four films that have been released so far with that word in the title have grossed over a billion dollars at the worldwide box office. The Infinity Saga-culminating Avengers: Endgame even became the all-time box office champion, surpassing the decade-old record previously held by James Cameron’s Avatar.
According to Feige, a new iteration of the Avengers is on the horizon — but it’s not likely to feature many, if any, revamped versions of heroes we’re familiar with. The King Geek was asked point-blank by MTV News if he and the rest of the Marvel Studios brain trust know what the next Avengers team will look like, and he replied, “Yes.”
Whatever form this team eventually takes, it seems safe to say that we won’t see another proper Avengers film for quite some time, considering that the entirety of Marvel’s Phase 4 slate was announced during the studio’s rapturously received Comic-Con panel — and there was nary a giant team-up flick to be found. There may be a few clues, however, hidden in the details we know so far about Phase 4 and beyond. Keep watching the video to find out that Marvel knows what the next Avengers team will be like!
