SDCC made waves today after revealing Phase 5 to everyone and announcing a slew of new projects. Charlie Cox’s Daredevil finally has a release window, and Captain America: New World Order (2024) and The Thunderbolts (2024) are finally on the MCU timeline.
Even Fantastic Four has been confirmed to release in 2024, which is a shock when Marvel didn’t say a word about Marvel’s X-Men reboot. With all this news, fans might’ve missed out on a crazy detail. Marvel did go out of their way to announce Avengers: Kang Dynasty (2025) and Avengers: Secret Wars (2025), which will release 6 MONTHS apart.

Avengers 5 will obviously center around Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror taking center stage as the next big baddie for the MCU. After Tom Hiddleston’s Loki, fans knew that Kang would have a large role, but it’s still surprising that Kang will have such a pivotal role in the MCU this early on.
It took ten years before Josh Brolin’s Thanos appeared in a major role, and Kang will already appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023) and become the main villain in Kang Dynasty. It’s very possible that Kang will have several different variants attack Earth over time, so the Avengers will need all the help they can get.
