New Details Emerge About Marvel Studios' Multiverse Saga Plans Heading Into AVENGERS 5

We have some new details about Marvel Studios' plans for the continuing Multiverse Saga, including how they plan to approach storytelling heading into the next two Avengers movies. Read on for details...

Even before Jonathan Majors was fired as the MCU's Kang the Conqueror, there was already a great deal of speculation among fans about where the Multiverse Saga is taking them as the next Avengers movies near. 

On the one hand, we have a Multiversal epic like Deadpool 3. However, other movies and TV shows - Thunderbolts and Daredevil: Born Again, for example - look set to tell much smaller-scale, likely self-contained stories which feel somewhat inconsequential to the impending threat of a war with Kang and his Variants. 

According to The Cosmic Circus' Alex Perez, Marvel Studios is looking to tell a wide range of stories in this Saga that don't necessarily all tie into what's down the line. 

Among those are supposedly "arcs like Devil Reign, the rise of the Midnight Suns, the coming of Mutants," all of which we're guessing lay the groundwork both for what comes after Avengers: Secret Wars and ensuring Marvel Studios has plenty of new characters to pit against Kang. 

Perez would later hint that World War Hulk is among those projects, though we remain unsure how a story that big can be squeezed in before Avengers: The Kang Dynasty Avengers 5. Then again, we wouldn't be surprised to see yet another wave of release date delays. 

"Not every film in the Infinity Saga focused on the Infinity Stones or Thanos, and it'll be the same across 5 and 6," Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige said earlier this year. "But we're gearing up. People will get a taste of this in a big way in Quantumania as we lead to Avengers: Secret Wars, which I'm extremely excited for."

"You know, I'm coming up on 23 years at Marvel. That's a long time. It's not quite half my life, but it's almost half my life. [Laughs] Many of us have been together for a decade or more. And we only do it because we are so excited and in love with the potential for what we can do ahead."

"The storylines that weave together through Phase 5 and 6 into Secret Wars and the opportunities that the multiverse brings storytelling-wise, it's a whole new aspect to the MCU," the executive concluded.

Do you think the Multiverse Saga can be salvaged as we head deeper into this era of storytelling?

Not every film in the Infinity Saga we're about the stones but the Infinity Saga was able to successfully tell a cosmic narrative conjoined with the Earth narrative and merged the two beautifully. We have so much going on that the only two connected storylines have been Loki 1 and 2, Wandavision, Ms. Marvel, The Marvels, and Multiverse of Madness. The rest have been all over the place. With Wong making cameos to say "Hey we are connected!"

@SonOfAGif - and no avengers cappers for the end of a phase. This is their big mistske.

Even phases 1-3 had mediocre movies, but the cappers really maintained interest

@vectorsigma - Look how important Thor The Dark World was for Avengers Endgame. They made the lower quality films feel grand in the end.

@SonOfAGif - Yes... in the end.

We're still not to the end yet.

@EskimoJ - The problem is that even before we reached "Endgame", The narrative was so on point that even Homecoming added to the overall lore. My point is that there is so much going on within the Multiverse Saga that are huge for the earth these heroes inhabit and none are being touched upon. The biggest game changer has been Arishem coming before the Earth and not one movie has touched on it. But every Infinity Saga film including the post Infinity Saga films mention the events of the first Avengers film.

It's not hard to salvage the Multiverse Saga. Start with The Avengers Beyond Time. Where The Beyonder was waiting beyond space and time hidden watching and orchestrating key moves to allow one of his variants to bridge the Multiverse together but was locked out by He Who Remains. But thanks to Loki the Multiverse is an open sandbox for The Beyonder 's goal of one true universe. He battles Loki for the throne through different universes with different heroes from different eras of Marvel history try to help Loki stop the Beyonder before every universe is destroyed. Then continue it in Secret Wars.

@SonOfAGif - I would open the film with Carol having a BBQ with Kamala and her family. Suddenly the Beyonder appears with Ronan's cosmic rod and says "I need those bangles sweetheart." Carol and Kamala battle the Beyonder but he defeats them with ease. Right before he attempts to kill Carol, Loki appears and uses his abilities to transport Carol, Kamala, and the rest of her living family away. Loki informs Carol that The Beyonder is the last variant who remains and is the strongest and most powerful and that The Beyonder is trying to collect relics of time to built a new Temporal Loom to take control of the Multiverse away from Loki and the TVA.

@SonOfAGif - I gotta be honest everyone ideas for “fixing” things just making them more complicated for the GA to keep up ,

@SonOfAGif - I rather just see them come up with a recasted Kang instead changing things. They could even bring back Quantumania's Kang.

Just say he got stuck for countless years in the same void as those evolved ants, and grew older and even more technologically advanded. While there, his endgoal became reaching status the goes beyond the Multiverse (i.e. become a Beyonder).

The first thing he does in KD, is just killing the whole arena of Kang variants so he's the only one left. At the end, he actually reaches that status and uses his powers to create Battleworld and keep Loki as it's battery instead of Molecule Man). Without the heroes knowing though, Doom kills Kang and takes his power to become God Emperor.

It's absolutely hilarious that all these Simple Jacks are constantly screeching for a World War Hulk Movie when everything that is supposed to have set up the event already came and gone.

WWH is NEVER going to happen and if it does they're going to screw it up
