It’s looking to be an action-packed year for the MCU in 2024! Already fans are getting hyped up for the upcoming Marvel flicks, especially since Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse was recently released. Things have gotten a bit more confusing though, since the dates for some of the releases have been moved around. With that said, let’s take a quick row of the upcoming MCU movies coming in 2024.

Shifting Marvel Landscape

Changes in release dates for Marvel films were unavoidable, owing to internal reorganization and the lingering effects of the SAG-AFTRA strikes. Due to delays in several upcoming instalments, there were adjustments made within the year, a move from 2023 to 2024, and even an unplanned advance. Despite the changes, the current lineup remains promising, providing audiences with a fantastic range of film experiences.

Upcoming MCU Movies Of 2024

Madame Web – February 14, 2024

The highly anticipated Sony film Madame Web, which hits theatres on February 14, 2024, will kick off the Marvel spectacle in 2024. This female-led Marvel adventure stars Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney, Emma Roberts, Isabela Merced, and Adam Scott. While specific roles are unknown, speculation about different versions of Madame Web from the comics adds to the mystery. The character’s rich comic book history, combined with the talent of the cast and the current fascination with the multiverse, suggests that Madame Web has the potential to be a big hit.

Deadpool 3 – July 26, 2024

The MCU enters a new era with the release of Deadpool 3 on July 26, 2024. This film marks Marvel Studios’ reintroduction of a Fox character as the lead in an MCU film, with Ryan Reynolds reprising his role as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine. Despite release date changes, Deadpool 3 remains Disney’s flagship MCU film for 2024. The outstanding cast, which includes Leslie Uggams and Karan Soni reprising their roles, as well as newcomers Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen, promises a thrilling theatrical experience. Directed by Shawn Levy, the film’s rumoured multiverse-related plot, involving Loki’s Time Variance Authority and Owen Wilson’s Mobius, has fans eagerly anticipating the crossover of the Fox X-Men and MCU franchises.

Venom 3 – November 8, 2024

The release date of Venom 3 has been changed from June 24, 2024, to November 8, 2024. This instalment has the potential to shed light on Sony’s Marvel universe, acting as a turning point in the successful live-action Spider-Man film series. The movie promises an intriguing exploration of the Venom world, with hints of a multiverse-leaning plot and speculations about Mrs. Chen’s involvement from Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. While the plot remains unknown, the teaser starring Tom Hardy suggests a thrilling and possibly unpredictable story.

Kraven The Hunter – August 30, 2024

Kraven the Hunter, which hits theaters on August 30, 2024, closes the chapter on Sony Spider-Man Universe releases in 2024. Despite a significant delay from its original October 3, 2023 release date, this change could benefit the film. Kraven the Hunter, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, is positioned as a possible forerunner of a separate series thanks to his modified origin story. The success of the film could pave the way for Kraven to become a potential antihero in the Sony live-action movie universe, possibly with ties to a Sinister Six instalment.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse – TBD

Originally conceived as two parts of the same movie, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse faced separation, with a release initially set for March 29, 2024. However, ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes have led to uncertainties, and the release date is now undetermined. Delays in production, particularly in the realm of voice acting, may push the release into 2025. The animated Spider-Verse franchise, following the massive success of Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, holds promise, and fans eagerly await updates on the release timeline.

MCU TV Shows Releasing In 2024

In 2024, the Marvel Cinematic Universe will expand beyond the big screen, with a slate of TV shows facing similar changes. Due to production delays, the release date of Daredevil: Born Again has been pushed back to 2024. Five MCU shows are currently scheduled for release in 2024, with specific dates yet to be announced. These shows, which include Echo, X-Men ’97, Agatha: Coven Of Chaos, Spider-Man: Freshman Year, and Marvel Zombies, add another layer to Marvel’s vast storytelling.

As Marvel fans prepare for a cinematic journey in 2024, the uncertainty surrounding release dates only adds to the anticipation. The exciting lineup, which includes both familiar and new characters, ensures that the Marvel Cinematic Universe remains at the forefront of cinematic excitement. 2024 is shaping up to be another unforgettable chapter in the ever-expanding Marvel saga, with multiverse plots, star-studded casts, and the promise of unexpected twists.
