Marvel Phase four films new release dates
Disney, which is the global distributor and owner of Marvel Studios, has announced the new release date of MCU films from 2020 to 2022. Marvel Studios revealed their phase four movies with release dates in 2019. But due to filming, production, and distribution currently being shut, the scenario for MCU phase four has changed.
Black Widow has taken over the release date of the Eternals which is November 6, 2020. It led to a subsequent shift in all other films taking over the others’ date. The Eternals will now release on February 12, 2021, which was scheduled for Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. The latter will release on Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness’s original release date, which is May 7, 2021. With that Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness will be out on November 5, 2021, pushing Thor: Love and Thunder from its original release date to now on February 18, 2022. Black Panther II and Captain Marvel 2 will hit the theatres on May 6 and July 8, respectively in 2022.
