The list of confirmed MCU Phase 5 movies and TV shows just got longer. A big chunk of Marvel’s plans for the next three years were revealed at SDCC 2022, and the fifth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has taken shape. We’ll take a look at which movies and TV shows will be part of MCU Phase 5 and their release dates and episode counts.
MCU Phase 5 Movie and TV Show List
We’ve got a pretty extensive list of movies and TV shows that’ll make up the fifth phase of the MCU. There’ll probably be some surprises in store for us, but for the most part, we know what’ll happen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the next two years.
Phase five is scheduled for 2023-2024. However, with how densely packed Disney’s release calendar is, we’d be surprised if there are no delays or cancellations.
MCU Phase 5 Movie List
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania
- Release Date: February 17, 2023
The third Ant-Man movie will have the current Ant-Man and the Wasp exploring the Quantum Realm with the former iterations of those heroes.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
- Release Date: May 5, 2023
Starlord has to learn to live without Gamora and rally the Guardians for one last mission. This’ll be the finale for this iteration of the Guardians of the Galaxy and finish the story started in the first film.
The Marvels
- Release Date: July 28, 2023
The Marvels is a pseudo-sequel to the Ms. Marvel limited series. Iman Vellani is returning as Ms. Marvel and will be joining Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel in a new adventure.
Blade
- Release Date: November 3, 2023
Regrettably, this movie won’t be starring Wesley Snipes as Blade, but maybe he’ll make an appearance as the new iteration of Abraham Whistler. Instead, the role of Blade will be played by Mahershala Ali, who previously provided an uncredited voice cameo as the character in the post-credits scene for Eternals.
Captain America: New World Order
- Release Date: May 3, 2024
This film will explore Sam Wilson’s role as Captain America and how it affects him.
Thunderbolts
- Release Date: July 26, 2024
The Thunderbolts are kind of like Marvel’s Suicide Squad. It’ll involve a group of villains working for the government. We may see Hawkeye make an appearance here, depending on how closely the writers follow the plot from the comics.
