Last Saturday was the day. At the San Diego Comic Con 2019 Kevin Feige presented Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And there were also some surprises. There were a lot of rumours in advance which movies might come up to us. But now we are safe what will happen the next two years at Marvel and I don't want to keep you on the tenterhooks and introduce you to all the important information about Phase 4, which has now become known. If you don't already know them.

Black Widow on May 1st 2020

Let's start with the film everyone assumed would be the first MCU Phase 4 FIlm. Black Widow starts on May 1st, 2020. It's supposed to be a story where we experience Black Widow's history before, so a little review of how she actually became this secret agent, but as some set pictures have shown, the whole thing may also play between Avengers Infinity War and Endgame.


Among other things it was announced that David Harbour, known from Stranger Strings, will play Alexei. There are not more know details yet. In addition there is Florence Pugh, who will play Yelena. You know this actress for example from the series The Little Drummer Girl. She is supposed to take on a kind of sister character of Natasha Romanoff. Besides we will also see Rachel Weisz as Iron Maiden. Scarlett Johansson herself of course returns to her famous role as the ex-spy and as rumours have already predicted, the Taskmaster will appear as the villain in the film. At the moment it's not yet known who plays him. The film will be directed by Cate Shortland.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier - Fall 2020

The Phase 4 this time not only includes films but also series. There will be series that will start exclusively at the in-house streaming service Disney+. The first series that has been announced is a bit surprising, because the Loki series was thought to be the first series to be broadcast there. But it's The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.


The series will start in fall 2020 and is really officially part of Phase 4. Otherwise it was always like that, that Marvel series were in the MCU, but somehow not. But the new ones will probably be a big part of the MCU and also events with the movies will overlap. Of course we will see Anthony Mackie again. Most likely he will first play the Falcon and then probably take over the role of Captain America. As his buddy Sebastian Stan will take over the role of Bucky again, also known as Winter Soldier. Daniel Brühl, who we already saw in Captain America Civil War, will probably take over his role from the film again. In addition, we will also see other well-known characters. Otherwise not much was revealed about the series. *The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will be the first series from Phase 4 to be launched on Disney+ in fall 2020.

The Eternals - 6th of November 2020

But not only Black Widow will come into the cinemas in 2020 but a completely new superhero group called The Eternals. I will write about them in an extra article more , who they are, where they come from and what they do. What was officially confirmed for The Eternals is which actor is playing which characters. And of course I don't want to keep that from you.

Angelina Jolie becomes Thena, Richard Madden becomes Ikaris, Kumail Nanjiani becomes Kingo, Salma Hayek becomes Ajak, Brian Tyree becomes Henry Phastos, Lia McHugh becomes Sprite and Lauren Ridloff becomes Makkari and Don Lee becomes Gilgamesh, the Forgotten One.

With The Eternals, the first dumb superhero will most likely come to the MCU. But it will also be the first superhero, who is dumb, who will get a movie role at all and also the first dumb superhero ever in all the superhero movies we got in the last years. The film release is announced for the 6th of november 2020 and will be directed by Chloé Zhao. That means we will get more information very soon, because that's only one and a half years away.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the ten Rings - 12th February 2021

Directly three months later there is another new superhero in the MCU, Shang-Chi. That had already been expected and now it was confirmed, only Shang-Chi gets another title behind it, namely Shang - Chi and the legend of the ten rings. Haven't we heard of it before? Remember the strange Mandarin, the fake Mandarin from Iron Man? Even though many would have liked to see Iron Man fight against the first Mandarin, now the real Mandarin is really coming.

The real Mandarin will be the big villain in Shang-Chi and he will be played by Tony Chiu-Wai Leung and he was named first on the San Diego Comic Con, because many have waited in vain for the man. But more important is who will play Shang-Chi? You probably don't know him that well now and he was also presented directly, Simu Liu.

A quite unknown actor. But I think it's good that way, too. We had the same procedure with Tom Hollnd. An unknown face who will play the new superhero, the first official asian superhero with a solo film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He was also cast only recently and then there was a screen test and after that he had already been to the San Diego Comic Con. Apparently four days earlier he was told that he really has the role. Sometimes it's quick with the MCU. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the ten Rings is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and will be released in February 12, 2021.


All this informations were last weekend officially announced at the San Diego Comic Con by Marvel Studios. The film banners are linked from the official Marvel Studios Twitter account.

The phase four is going to be amazing than ever before

It seems so @cityslicker and I'm really looking forward to it.

I grew up on Marvel comics and DC too. I know the old characters but when they come up with new ones I don't know whether to be excited or not.

Guess I will have to with hold judgement 'til I have seen them.

I was also very skeptical at the beginning of all that but they do their job damn well

I can't wait for a Black Widow and Shang-Chi 😏
