Phase Five kicked off with a bang last weekend with the release of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Despite divisive viewpoints on the film’s quality, one aspect Marvel fans have united over is an appreciation for Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror, our next Avengers-level threat! We finally unraveled the mysteries of Janet’s (Michelle Pfeiffer) time in the Quantum Realm and Kang
Read MoreWith the release of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Marvel Studios Phase 5 has only just begun. We’ve got another five films and seven Disney+ series coming our way over the next two years. I’m pretty excited for Phase 5 overall since it’s easy to see stories coming together as we set the stage for the next two Avengers films. But
Read MoreBlack Panther: Wakanda Forever is a masterpiece of a sequel. The film had to navigate many difficulties on its path to the silver screen, chief of which was the heartbreaking and untimely loss of its lead star Chadwick Boseman. But as we all hoped, Wakanda Forever is indeed a love letter to Boseman – one that keeps his memory alive in
Read MoreFrom a team lineup that consists of mostly super-soldiers to the absence of popular comic mainstays like Zemo and Songbird, fans have a few concerns about Marvel’s Thunderbolts. But a recent (now thankfully reversed) rumor gave us a much bigger reason to worry for a bit. According to a few leakers not associated with this site, it seemed like Hannah John-Kamen’s

Read MoreMany fans loved Letitia Wright’s wisecracking, genius princess since the first Black Panther film. But I didn’t expect Black Panther: Wakanda Forever to transform Shuri into one of the best characters in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, complete with a poignant arc that both mirrors and contrasts the development of Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa. Shuri has endured an incredible amount of tragedy
Read MoreIt’s finally happening: Marvel Studios is taking a Disney+ original series and turning it into a movie! Armor Wars is doing a reverse Hawkeye, going from a six-episode “special event” series to a theatrical film. Given Marvel’s intricately planned phases and several upcoming films already fighting for release dates, this is a major switch-up no one saw coming. Remember when it

Yes, everything is building towards two massive Avengers movies, but what about the smaller crossovers in between? Phase 4 may be like Phase 1 in the sense that it’s laying the groundwork for The Multiverse Saga, but it still
Read MoreKathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness was a standout antagonist in our first Marvel Studios Disney+ original series, WandaVision. Now, as a result of her breakout popularity (and Hahn’s stellar performance), Agatha is getting her own Disney+ spin-off Agatha: Coven of Chaos! We don’t know much about Agatha: Coven of Chaos beyond its snappy title. Jac Schaeffer, WandaVision’s creator, will be heading up
