With Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe coming to a close, Marvel Studios is still trying to figure out if it can ever top the success of Avengers: Endgame, the highest-grossing movie ever. Marvel’s Disney+ shows like WandaVision and Loki played a major role in setting up the future of the MCU but also helped contribute to superhero sprawl. It’s hard to keep up with all the storylines.

But there is a master plan. Over 10 years, Disney built the most bankable film franchise in the world by building an interlocking universe of characters, teasing future movies with post-credit scenes and experimenting with different genres to shake up the superhero formula. Disney also gained rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four franchise through the Fox merger, and those characters are sure to make their way into the MCU films soon.

Disney was so successful, that they are now able to buy back those fan favorite Marvel characters owned by other studios. In 2017, Sony and Disney teamed up to make three Spider-Man movies: Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. They have now struck up an agreement to continue making movies about Peter Parker together, even as Sony produces other movies in the Spider-verse alone, starring characters like Venom and Miles Morales.

Here’s a list of all upcoming Marvel movies from either studio, in order:

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (Feb. 17, 2023)

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Part 1 (June 2, 2023)

Universe: Sony’s Spider-Man Universe

Miles Morales is voiced by Shameik Moore in "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse"Sony

Sony greenlit a sequel for its Miles Morales animated film, Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse, before the movie even premiered or won its Oscar. The sequel, Across the Spider-Verse, is being split into two parts. Voice actors Shameik Moore (Miles Morales), Nailee Steinfeld (Gwen Stacy), Brian Tyree Henry (Miles’ dad Jefferson Davis), Jake Johnson (Peter B. Parker), and Oscar Isaac (Spider-Man 2099) are all returning. Issa Rae, Daniel Kaluuya, and Jason Schwartzman have also joined the cast.

Captain Marvel 2 (July 28, 2023)

Brie Larson will reprise her role as the universe’s most powerful superhero in a Captain Marvel 2, and Nia DaCosta, a breakout director whose forthcoming horror film Candyman was produced by Jordan Peele, will direct the sequel. Captain Marvel made her debut in a movie set in the 1990s, though this movie will likely take place in modern day given the inclusion of Iman Vellani, the new Ms. Marvel on Disney+, in the cast.

Kraven the Hunter (Oct. 6, 2023)

Yet another Spider-Man villain is getting his own movie. Like Venom and Morbius before him, Kraven the Hunter will make his cinematic debut before he ever takes on Spidey. Presumably, these three characters plus Vulture and two other baddies will form the villainous Sinister Six in an upcoming film. Kraven will be played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who (confusingly) previously starred as Quicksilver in another Marvel film, Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Madame Web (Feb. 16, 2024)

A supporting character in the Spider-Man comics, Madame Web is a blind, elderly woman who uses psychic powers to fight crime. Dakota Johnson (a notably young person) has been cast as the lead, so we’re assuming they’re making a few adjustments to the plot. Sydney Sweeney, Emma Roberts, and Adam Scott have also been cast in the film.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse, Part 2 (March 29, 2024)

Fantastic Four (Feb. 14, 2025)

Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe

Marvel Studios

Let’s try this again, folks. Disney finally has the rights to the Fantastic Four and is rebooting the franchise after Fox’s last attempt at an origin story for this super-team flopped at the box office. No word yet on casting—despite popping up as an alternate universe Mr. Fantastic in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, John Krasinski has remained mum on whether he’ll reprise the role in this film.

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty (May 2, 2025)

Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe

The Avengers are in big trouble. Marvel is setting up Kang the Conquerer to be the next Thanos-level villain, and Kang’s minions toss Infinity Stones aside like trash. He’s after the ability to control not just one universe but the entire multiverse.

Just one year after Kang Dynasty, we’re getting another Avengers movie: Secret Wars. In the comics, Secret Wars begins with the collision of various universes and ends in all out-battle between different versions of our favorite heroes and villains.

Venom 3 (TBD)

Tom Hardy will return as Eddie Brock, the journalist with a very hungry alien parasite living inside him.

Armor Wars (TBD)

In Iron Man’s absence, James Rhones, a.k.a. War Machine, must take up the mantle. In the comics, the action in Armor Wars begins when Stark tech falls into the wrong hands. It would make sense for Riri Williams, the star of the Disney+ show Ironheart, to join the cast of this film, since she builds her own Iron Man suit.

New Spider-Man Trilogy (TBD)

Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe and Sony’s Spider-Man Universe

Marvel Studios Head Kevin Feige and Spider-Man film producer Amy Pascal have promised that they will collaborate on another set of Spider-Man films. Whether those movies will star Tom Holland or introduce a new Spidey remains to be seen. It’s also unclear whether he’ll be battling baddies owned by Sony or Disney’s Marvel Studios or both.

Female-centered Spider-Man movie (TBD)

Sony has reportedly tapped Olivia Wilde to helm a female-centric story in the Spider-Man universe. Sony has made promises that it would highlight Spidey’s female friends and foes before: Gina Prince-Bythewood was set to direct a movie about Black Cat and Silver Sable that has never come to fruition. The studio also floated the possibility of movie based on the character Silk that has yet to manifest. On her much-watched publicity tour for Don’t Worry Darling, Wilde did not confirm that she is indeed directing a Spider-Woman picture. It’s unclear which, if any, of these movies will eventually make it to the big screen.

An all-female Spider-verse spinoff (TBD)

Into the Spider-verse left fans craving more from Gwen Stacey and Penni Parker, two of the alternate universe Spider-People. Expect them to lead the pack, along with some other female heroes like Spider-Woman, in this expected spinoff film.
