Marvel is one of Disney's money-making machine. The creation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe allowed the company to generate an enormous amount of profit. For example, Avengers: Endgame became the highest grossing film of all time, reaching a figure of 2.8 billion dollars .

All of this was achieved through a 12-year generation of film projects, culminating in an impressive film. However, the truth is that, even after that, it seeks to redouble the bet by generating exclusive content, both for the cinema and for the recent mouse platform, known as Disney Plus .

In this case, we talk about more than 15 different Marvel projects that were announced at the 2020 Investor Day event . There are different films, series and even shorts films that will belong to the world of superheroes and that will try to expand everything we know so far.

Marvel TV series and movies announced

At first, it should be noted that we already had information about some productions … but now they have made their release dates official. As for the movies, we see that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings will hit the screens on July 9, 2021, Thor: Love and Thunder will land on February 11, and Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness will do the same on March 25, 2022 .

The same happens with some television series, such as WandaVision or Falcon and the Winter Soldier . Due to delays due to the coronavirus, they announced that the first work, which will explore the continuation of the story of the witch and her companion with the Infinity Stone, will premiere on June 15 on Disney Plus. The other, on the other hand, will arrive earlier, as it will be available on March 19, 2021.

Of course, there would also be new productions announced. From Hypertextual they indicated that the reboot of The Fantastic 4 will enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe . The film will be directed by Jon Watts, in charge of the Spider-Man trilogy, and will be set in Phase 5, with a release after 2023.

On the other hand, the third film of the little Ant-Man was also confirmed, which will be Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania , again directed by Peyton Reed. In that tape, Kang the conqueror would be introduced, possibly the great new villain of the MCU. At the same time, something that everyone expected was also revealed: Captain Marvel 2, which will have Nia DaCosta as director .

An important detail is that, according to Herald, it was confirmed that in Black Panther 2 the late Chadwick Boseman will not be replaced . On the contrary, they will seek to explore the world of Wakanda to continue their legacy, so this film, scheduled for May 6, 2022, will continue to tackle other paths.

On the other hand, a lot of content is prepared in Disney Plus in series or short format. For example, the Loki series, which will arrive in May 2021, will address what happened after the events of Endgame . Ms. Marvel will also appear in 2021 , giving a fiction to a green-hued heroine. Something similar will happen with She-Hulk, which will be a series where Mark Ruffalo will appear as the Hulk and Tatiana Maslany as the protagonist , in addition to the return of Tim Roth as the Abomination, a monster that he had already played in the past.

In addition to other series and productions, they confirmed a Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special, which will arrive in 2022 and will work as a preview of the third installment of this fun film . Alternative stories, such as Armor Wars, where villains create their own armor, will also be explored. Another is Secret Invasion, which will tell the invasion of the Skrulls or What If, a 10-episode animated fiction that explains what would have happened if the events of Marvel changed in some way .
