Thor: Love and Thunder  released its first trailer recently, and fans are pumped to once again spend time with Chris Hemsworth’s God of Thunder. This time around, the former Avenger will be on a quest for peace and self-realization, one that will be interrupted by an insidious villain played by Christian Bale as Marvel Comics villain Gorr the God Butcher. As much as the project’s first full trailer had to show off, sadly, Gorr wasn’t even spotted once. But what is his deal anyway? Well, the big bad hates Gods—in fact, he goes around slaughtering them. ADVERTISEMENT Khonshu in  Moon Knight But wait, isn’t there a God at the forefront of the MCU right now? Why yes, there is: Khonshu, the Egyptian God of the Moon. The deity is the being behind Oscar Isaac’s titular hero Moon Knight, whose series is currently streaming across the world on Disney+. But is he safe from the wrath of Thor’s next bloodthirsty villain? Well, fans may have some clarificati...

In a few weeks, Marvel fans will have a brand-new way to experience Guardians of the Galaxy ; this time, it's not on the big screen or on Disney+. Set to open at Walt Disney World's EPCOT on May 27, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is a new indoor roller coaster featuring Star-Lord, Groot, Rocket, and the rest of the gang; but this time, fans are a part of the adventure.  The story behind  Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind  is that the Celestial Eson is behind  "space and time rewinding." Park guests visiting the theme park's Wonders of Xandar pavilion are then pulled into the fight via a rotating roller coaster which features a reverse launch.  ADVERTISEMENT While Disney has released a 15-second trailer for the attraction and a few other details and reveals, little of the ride experience itself has been revealed. That is, until now.  Rocket & Groot Featured in New Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Tra...

Ever since Black Panther was released in theaters, showing fans a visage of Bast and witnessing Chadwick Boseman's T'Challa visiting the Ancestral Plane, many wondered if either were 100% real. However, while Black Panther may have been ambiguous regarding its more fantastical elements, Moon Knight has been anything but, especially in the latest episode, "Asylum." Marvel It was always left to chance that the vision brought on by the consumption of the heart-shaped herb caused one to hallucinate Wakanda's afterlife, but the latest episode of Moon Knight no longer leaves any doubt about it. The Ancestral Plane is real, which carries significant implications for the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe moving forward. ADVERTISEMENT Black Panther's Ancestral Plane Exists Marvel In Episode 5 of  Moon Knight , Oscar Isaac's Marc Spector begins to question if they're in  "the"  afterlife, but Taweret corrects hi...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is just over a week away, and fans are on the edge of their seats with anticipation. The upcoming Marvel Studios project is set to take a deep dive into the many realities that make up existence. Alongside Benedict Cumberbatch's titular hero, Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch, Benedict Wong's Sorcerer, and Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez will be joining the fray. Wong has seen an expanded role in the MCU recently. As of  Spider-Man: No Way Home , the character was revealed to be the Sorcerer Supreme—a role lost to Stephen Strange thanks to being blipped. ADVERTISEMENT On top of saving existence in the upcoming film, the sorcerer has, and will likely be, a busy man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings  he can be seen overseeing Abomination, and if rumors are true, he'll be popping up for a notable role in  She-Hulk . So who would the actor want to int...

Marvel Studios has worked hard to prove its commitment to the inclusion of characters that represent all walks of life, especially people of color and those in the LGBTQIA+ community. On the LGBTQIA+ front, from Phastos in  Eternals  to Loki and Sylvie in  Loki , Marvel has taken major steps toward making the world in the MCU look more like the world around us.   The heavily anticipated  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  will be no exception, either. While the story will, of course, focus heavily on Benedict Cumberbatch's titular character and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, it will also introduce Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez. Miss America, as she's known in the comics, will be the MCU's first Latina LGBTQ character. ADVERTISEMENT Recent interviews with Gomez and Marvel Studios President Victoria Alonso give some insight into how much America Chavez's inclusion in the MCU matters. America Chavez Bring...

Spider-Man: No Way Home may have cracked open the Marvel Multiverse; but in this reality, Andrew Garfield has been at the center due to his roles in The Eyes of Tammy Faye , Tick, Tick... Boom! , and, of course,  Spider-Man: No Way Home . Following the latter film's release, the fan demand to revive The Amazing Spider-Man franchise dominated social media and was even acknowledged by Sony's social team.   Fans aren't the only ones eager for more of Garfield's web-slinger. The MCU's current Spider-Man, Tom Holland, has also given his "full support." The question, however, was whether both Sony and Garfield were interested.  ADVERTISEMENT When asked about his potential return, The Amazing Spider-Man star claimed that there were "No plans, that's the truth," while also acknowledging the fact that no one would believe him after his viral denials of being in  No Way Home .  However, following Sony's lack of ...

Marvel Studios has undoubtedly suffered many challenges over the years to reach the level of success it's seeing today with the Marvel Cinematic Universe But following the tragic death of T'Challa actor Chadwick Boseman, the studio is facing its toughest task yet: continuing the  Black Panther  franchise without the star that made it such a success. Director Ryan Coogler will return to achieve that goal this year with  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever . The sequel will continue to explore the world of Wakanda and its people in the absence of the iconic King T'Challa as Marvel Studios has remained adamant it will not recast the original lead. ADVERTISEMENT Letitia Wright's Shuri, Lupita Nyong'o's Nakia, and Danai Gurira's Okoye will all reprise their MCU roles, although it's unclear who will take over the Black Panther mantle. The trio will be joined by almost every major player from the first film including Angela Bassett, M...

In summer 2021, Marvel Studios' Loki became the first Disney+ series within the Marvel Cinematic Universe to be confirmed for a second full season after Season 1 came to an end. Tom Hiddleston took his God of Mischief into a chaotic adventure from start to finish in his first solo project, and even after more than a decade of service, he's far from finished with the role. Rumors pointed to Loki making some kind of appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness after Season 1 finished, with the adopted Asgardian potentially in for pure chaos as the Multiverse comes apart at the seams. In the real world, Season 2 of Loki will begin filming in Hiddleston's home of London this summer, sending the anti-hero back with the TVA to fix the mess he and Sylvie helped start. ADVERTISEMENT Outside of returning characters like Sophia Di Martino's Sylvie and Gugu Mbatha-Raw's Judge Renslayer, Loki Season 2 remains largely a mystery wi...

While Marvel Cinematic Universe projects have become extremely commonplace in recent years, it takes years before those seeds start to sprout. Before a Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness hits theaters or a Moon Knight begins streaming on Disney+, they go through an extensive production and marketing process. Before that, they get a title card and a release date at a “phase” announcement. And that's just what fans see. ADVERTISEMENT The years leading up to those slate reveals are littered with extensive patience and planning. The Marvel Studios Parliament, a creative team captained by Marvel President Kevin Feige and various veteran MCU producers, assembles every couple of years to lay out the blueprint for where the entire franchise will venture next. Even with 14 years of stories already under his belt, Feige still notes he is  "as excited now as [he] was on day one"  as fan investment has helped  "keep the creative fires b...

Over the years, Marvel Studios has picked up some of the brightest talents in Hollywood for the MCU. Those who didn't arrive as stars have certainly left as one. Take Tom Holland and Robert Downey Jr., who now stand as two of the biggest names in the industry. With so much talent spread across the many franchises that make up the MCU,  Avengers: Endgame  was truly a sight to behold and, second only to an awards ceremony, the ultimate who's who of Hollywood. Having featured Oscar-winners such as Anthony Hopkins, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, and more, the  Thor  franchise holds the record for the most Academy Awards for a solo franchise. But one cannot estimate the star power that comes with the  Ant-Man  movies as it features names like Michael Douglas, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Paul Rudd. ADVERTISEMENT Kicking into gear with 2015's  Ant-Man , the shrinking franchise quickly established itself as one of the funniest in the MCU, and despite it...

Marvel Studios has made two mass project announcements since initially revealing Phase 4 at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019. The first came at 2020's Disney Investor Day, and the second followed on 2021's Disney+ Day, but even across those events, details remain vague on one film from the initial Phase 4 reveal:  Blade ​​​​​​. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige concluded his 2019 Comic-Con presentation in dramatic fashion as he brought out Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali to announce him as the star of the MCU's  Blade , a moment that shocked everyone. ADVERTISEMENT But as that moment nears its third anniversary, there appears to have been minimal movement, at least publicly, regarding the production of  Blade . The reboot has picked up a few cast members, founds its head writer in Stacy Osei-Kuffour, and brought on Bassam Tariq to direct, and yet there is still no sign of a release date. Even with no public progress on the production of hi...

Chris Evans'  Captain America: The Winter Soldier  was one of the biggest departures for the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the time. Not only was the genre, a 70s-esque political thriller, completely new, but the Russo Brother’s first MCU project also featured the evolution of action scenes for Marvel Studios. At the time, many audiences claimed them to be the best the company had put forth yet. The biggest improvement was how hard-hitting the action was. Every punch, kick, shield-smash—the viewers could feel each impact. This new level of intensity became the new norm for future projects. ADVERTISEMENT Now, enter Oscar Isaac’s  Moon Knight . The project is just over halfway through its first season on Disney+, and many have already considered it to be the most violent Marvel Studios project to date.

For five weeks now,  Moon Knight  has had Marvel fans enraptured with its mysterious story focused on ancient Egyptian mythology. Audiences worldwide have been introduced to Oscar Issac as Marc Spector/Steven Grant, someone who is coming to grips with their disassociation personality disorder. This split has Isaac portraying more than one character, as well as the titular hero of the show.  But could there be more alternate personas on the way? The closing moments of Episode 5 seemingly teased that yet another personality would be revealed in time. ADVERTISEMENT After Marvel Comic character Bertrand Crawley showed up in the latest episode, eagle-eyed fans have deduced that this new third version Isaac's hero could be Jake Lockley. On the page, Lockley is a cab driver who uses Crawley as an informant, so it would make a lot of sense if he were to show up.  Nothing has been confirmed in regard to Lockley's inclusion, but new quotes supposedly hint...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  will soon hit theaters. Not only will the magical blockbuster see the return of Doctor Strange, Wong, and Scarlet Witch, but it will also feature the debut of Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez, the latest Young Avenger to be introduced in the MCU in Phase 4. 15-year-old Marvel newcomer Xochitl Gomez will make her first appearance as America Chavez in  Multiverse of Madness . The young hero's powers not only include superhuman strength, speed, and durability but also the ability to traverse the Multiverse - a talent that will prove to be a great asset to Doctor Strange and his team. ADVERTISEMENT America Chavez is both a lesbian and of Latin-American origin, two character traits that will carry over to her live-action portrayal. Unfortunately, due to restrictions on releases in certain regions, Chavez's LGBTQIA+ status and mention of her "two moms" has led to  Multiverse of Madness  being ban...

Moon Knight has been twisting and turning for a number of weeks, but no episode swerved more than the fourth episode of the Disney+ show. Episode 4 ended on a major bombshell, placing Marc Spector and Steven Grant in a mental institution before having them run into… a hippo goddess? With only a few unseen bits of footage and a baffling ending to go off of, it's safe to say that many fans had no clue what to expect going into the fifth chapter of  Moon Knight 's story. Episode 5 picks right up after the previous installment’s cliffhanger and arguably leaves Marc and Steven in an even more confusing situation than the previous episode.
