With anticipation for Marvel Studios' crossover phenomenon The Avengers heating up from the approaching release of their Captain America: The First Avenger & Thor movies, many are at wonder of the studios' plans post-2012, sans Iron Man 3. And speaking with D23 Magazine via IGN exclusively, the studios' president Kevin Feige speaks essentially on just that.

"X-Men was the dawn of the new Marvel cinematic age. 'Iron Man' was the dawn of the Marvel Studios age and the establishment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the beginning of that continuity. The Avengers is the next big step. Once all these characters come together, it's the culmination of all that has come before. It launches a new era and a new time in the history of our films. Not only will it be the first film that our new home studio, Disney, will be distributing, but it will also renew each of these characters and launch them into their own franchises, starting with the second film to be released by Disney, Iron Man 3."

"[After The Avengers] Thor will go off into a new adventure, and Captain America will continue to explore the modern world in another film of his own. We hope that holds true for the characters appearing in that film — Black Widow, Hawkeye, and the spy organization, S.H.I.E.L.D. —all of whom are more than worthy and capable of carrying their own films. And, we've got a lot of other characters we're prepping and getting ready for film debuts: the world of martial arts, these great cosmic space fantasies, Dr. Strange, and the magic side of the Marvel Universe. There are many, many stories to be mined."


While these potential films have been mentioned in the studios' future plans countless times, it's great to hear - Captain America sequels essentially in modern times, martial artist (Iron Fist), and well cosmic space films (Inhumans) being mentioned as recent considerations. What do you think? Anyhow, look for Thor in theaters May 6, Captain America July 22, and The Avengers May 4, next year!

Hawkeye solo movie - Meh.

Black Widow solo movie - depending on amount of Johansson cleavage shown: Meh.

"Cosmic" movies (solo Silver Surfer, Inhumans, etc.) - Yes please.

Solo Dr. Strange - Oh my god, yes.

Not sure how I feel about an Inhumans movie. There's just so much stuff that's involved with that. I guess if they're doing the Kree/Skrull war for Avengers, the Kree will already be established so that seems like a natural direction to go in. I don't know, I just don't find those guys very interesting. If they're going to go cosmic, they should get the rights back from Fox for Silver Surfer. Maybe do a Nova Corps thing to try and hop on the Green Lantern bandwagon.

@Cronicchris...I AGREE WITH YOU. EXCEPT, SKEET ULRICH AS DOCTOR STRANGE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE SILVER SURFER AND LET'S SEE HOW ABOUT DEATHLOK...MAYBE MOON KNIGHT OR TOMB OF DRACULA. ALIEN LEGION GIVE US SOMETHING BESIDES X-MEN OR WOLVERINE!
DCMarvelFreshman
DCMarvelFreshman - 4/19/2011, 2:49 PM
I honestly think Green Lantern will lead the road to an Inhumans movie...which evidently could include the Kree...maybe;)

I just don't see Johnny Depp as Dr. Strange, no offense Cross. I was thinking Mads Mikkelson would be great in the role. He has lots of depth and intensity to him and I think he would give it an edgier feel than Patrick Dempsey, who I hear is interested in the role.

this sounds awesome.

-thor 2 (hela & surtur)

-captain america 2 (baron zemo & crossbones)

-iron man 3 (armor wars)

-dr.strange (can't wait)

-iron fist (can't wait)

-cosmic movies (nova,guardians of the galaxy & the inhumans)

its f*ckin awesome being a marvel fan.

That sounds so interesting, about all the movies they can make... Give me Dr. Strange... Be interesting to see Oded Fehr as Dr. Strange, just my opinion... Give Iron Fist ( I hope )...

"these great cosmic space fantasies"

NOVA!

I concur. Time to tackle some of the lesser known heroes.

I think Cloak and Dagger have MEGA potential.

Give us a Gambit origins movie!! It would be amazing and pretty easy to make
jazzman
jazzman - 4/19/2011, 3:01 PM
these are the ones they need to do:

- Dr Strange
- Black Panther
- Iron Fist
- Luke Cage
- Heroes for Hire
- Guardians of the Galaxy
- Nova


@BruceWayneNewton

once again FOX got the rights to that character not Marvel Studio so that movie wont happen anytime soon

As long as they fix Caps outfit and come up with something better than shoulder pads. Dragonskin!
Growler

Why the interest in Nova?

I'd much rather see something involving Adam Warlock, the High Evolutionary and Thanos as these all have more to do with the Cosmic Cube than most of the other characters mentioned, as well as being closely connected with the Kree race in the comics universe.

This would be a far more left-field proposal and one I'd much prefer to see, especially if they involve Pip. That would be hilarious.

@ jackwagon

cap will have a brand new outfit in time for the avengers,i'm sure of it.

@ growler

you're joking right,nova is the best cosmic character in comics today. (well maybe second to the silver surfer)

have read annihilation & nova comic its pretty special,you can see why a movie is needed.

@ jazzman

maybe a luke cage & iron fist team up movie would work better than single outings.

personally i think iron fist would be sweet on his own.

@ darkmatter

the cosmic marvel stuff is what i'm intrested in most of all.

Give me an Annihilation movie!!! Or a Realm/War of Kings based movie, or all of them. I would love to see an Infinity Gauntlet movie, but you can't do that without the rights to Silver Surfer and the FF. Not to mention all the X-Men that were in that movie.

cloak and dagger would be pretty cool, loved their cameos in the maximum carnage game back in the day... that was an awesome game growing up
ManThing

AWESOME!!!!!!!!! bring it on!!

thunderforce - 4/19/2011, 3:27 PM
bring on the annihilators .
jazzman
jazzman - 4/19/2011, 3:32 PM
@marvel72

nah man, Luke Cage and Iron Fist should have their own solo film then instead of having a solo sequel movie they can team up for Heroes for Hire. imagine it as what they doing with the Avengers all the other characters have their own solo film then they all team up for The Avengers. same thing could work with a Luke Cage and Iron Fist solo movie and then a Heroes for Hire.

Mo Money Mo Money for Marvel Studio.
