The X-Men are waiting in the wings to make their debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with a project being in active development, and Mister Sinister being rumored to be the villain for the first phase for the mutants. However, Marvel will require some smaller-scale villains in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to build up to the big bad, and X-Men ’97 might have just given the MCU its first mutant villain.

Omega Red is a mutant alright, but the character also has a direct connection to Captain America. Omega Red was made by the Soviet Union in direct response to Captain America. However, the procedure that the character went through is more in line with the Weapon X program that produced Wolverine.

Shawn Levy has an impressive list of credits to his name, including Night at the Museum, Free Guy, and Stranger Things. Deadpool & Wolverine will be his biggest movie to date, but it isn't the first time a Marvel project has hit the filmmaker's radar.
Levy worked with Hugh Jackman on Real Steel and Ryan Reynolds on Free Guy and The Adam Project, meaning he was already good friends with both actors.
However, before Reynolds pitched him on helming what was then Deadpool 3, Levy had already passed on the chance to take charge of 2013's The Wolverine!
"On the set of The Adam Project, Ryan asked me if I would consider doing Deadpool 3," he tells Empire Online. "And I remember him saying, 'I know you’re gonna say no, but I’m really going to try and talk you into it.' And my response was, 'I’m not gonna fucking say no,...

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is certainly one of the releases this year that is meant to kickstart great things. First, the movie is Deadpool’s first foray into the MCU, something that fans have been asking for, well, since the MCU existed. Second, it’s part of a new strategy that aims to restore at least some of the faith that fans had in the franchise and in the studio.
Third it’s going to feature a large number of cameos and variants, some confirmed and some only rumored.
Early reports regarding the movie claimed that ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ will prove vital for the continuation of the MCU due to its Multiversal themes, and the more about the plot we learn, the more this seems likely.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ marks a significant release this year, poised to ignite a new era. For starters, it marks Deadpool’s inaugural venture into the MCU, fulfilling a long-standing wish of fans. Secondly, it’s a key component of a fresh strategy aimed at revitalizing faith in both the franchise and the studio.
Moreover, the film promises a plethora of cameos and variants, with some already confirmed and others swirling in the rumor mill.
Initial reports suggest that ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ will play a crucial role in the ongoing narrative of the MCU, particularly because of its Multiversal themes. As details about the plot emerge, this assertion appears increasingly plausible.
Interestingly, while there’s considerable excitement surrounding the film’s release, one question seems to be flying under the radar: what happens next? Once the hype subsides and the theatrical run concludes, what lies ahead for the Deadpool and Wolverine variants?...

Currently, there’s a movie in the works centered on Sam Wilson’s Captain America, slated for release in 2025.

Reportedly, Chris Evans is set to return in a limited series that follows Captain America’s journey to return the Infinity Stones to their rightful places in time, as per MyTimeToShineHello.
The concept does seem intriguing, especially considering that the process depicted in the movies was glossed over and rushed. This rumor gains further traction from other recent reports suggesting that Evans has already signed on to reprise his former role.

Nobody expected Hugh Jackman to reprise the role of Wolverine when he announced that he had hung up the claws after James Mangold's Logan, and the chances of a third Deadpool movie featuring Ryan Reynolds as the Merc With a Mouth seemed pretty slim when Disney acquired 20th Century Fox back in 2019.
Even so, both actors will return as their respective characters for this summer's Deadpool and Wolverine, and fans are wondering if we will see more of Wade and Wolvie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe down the line.
Empire put the question to Reynolds and Jackman during an interview for the latest issue of the magazine.
“I’m very nervous talking to you,” responded Reynolds. “I’ve never been so scared of what’s coming out of my mouth,” added Jackman.
It's obviously a jokey response that allows them to avoid a direct answer, but still, we'd say...

Rumour has it Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever director Ryan Coogler is being eyed to helm both Black Panther 3 and Marvel Studios' eventual X-Men reboot.
It's an exciting prospect given what a talent the filmmaker is, but one The DisInsider may have thrown cold water on. According to the site, Coogler is on a shortlist to helm both Avengers 5 and Avengers: Secret Wars.
While the post's author believes he'd likely direct only one of them, they also suggest the director could pass the reigns of Black Panther 3 to someone else to focus on Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
Still, we'd bet on Marvel Studios wanting a single filmmaker for the next Avengers movies as, like Infinity War and Endgame, they could then be shot back-to-back (surely a necessity when they're being released only one year apart).

From chatter about Evans’ Human Torch cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine to the actor’s appearance in a Marvel TV show, speculations have been going wild, surrounding our favorite Cap.

Well, although there has been no official confirmation about Chris Evans’ rumored appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine, the Marvel TV show sounds a bit extra. Meanwhile, the logline for the series suggests that it is set to revolve around the return of the Infinity Stones.

Galactus is coming.
British actor Ralph Ineson is the latest addition to the cast of Marvel’s “The Fantastic Four,” as the world-devouring cosmic villain Galactus.
The superhero quartet known as Marvel’s First Family will be played by Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards (aka Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm (aka the Invisible Woman), Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm (aka the Human Torch) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm (aka the Thing). The film will also feature Oscar nominee John Malkovich and Emmy winner Paul Walter Hauser, both in undisclosed roles, as well as Emmy winner Julia Garner as Shalla-Bal, a version of the Silver Surfer.
First introduced in a “Fantastic Four” issue from 1966, Galactus is a god-like entity who survives only by feeding on entire planets — and every living soul who inhabits it. He was designed by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby to stand apart from the standard,...

We've already heard chatter about a Human Torch cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine (not to mention the actor's long-awaited return as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Secret Wars), but how about a TV show?
According to scooper @MyTimeToShineH, a limited series is in development for Disney+ which will revolve around Captain America returning the Infinity Stones to their correct place in time following the events of Avengers: Endgame.
This is a story fans have long said they want to see, and a show like this would be a good way to make Marvel Studios' streaming offering feel like must-watch event TV again (which was the case when WandaVision and The Falcon and The Winter Soldier launched in 2021).
We've heard about possible plans for this TV show before, so here's hoping it's finally moving forward.

The MCU has numerous projects slated for release in 2024, 2025, and beyond. While various movies are currently in production, none are as highly anticipated as ‘Avengers 5’ and ‘Avengers: Secret Wars,’ which are expected to uphold the tradition of epic crossovers in the MCU.
Although ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ is still a long way off from its release, limited information is available aside from the rumored release date. Nonetheless, we’ve compiled all the rumors into one convenient guide to provide you with the latest insights.
There are strong rumors suggesting that ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ will initiate a reboot of the current MCU
The sixth Avengers title takes cues from the ‘Secret Wars’ comic storylines of 1984 and 2015, with a focus on the latter’s exploration of the multiverse. In the MCU, clues from Kang in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” hint at a parallel multiversal conflict, echoing the clash of universes depicted in the comics,...

Death is not permanent, not in the Multiversal saga of the Marvel Cinematic Universe anyway. Of course, we have mourned the death of the beloved villain turned-hero with a glorious purpose, Tom Hiddleston’s Loki but we got him back with an even more interesting twist— further exploration of the character even without the inherent shadow of his brother, Thor, as depicted in the previous movies in the MCU.
Robert Dowmey Jr. as Iron Man in Avengers: Endgame
Like Loki’s apparent death, fan-favorite Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man demise was perhaps the saddest part for any MCU fan. There could have always been more from the character but killing him off in the Avengers: Endgame made perfect sense and his death was glorious but with Deadpool & Wolverine, a lot can change.

How much Marvel is too much? That question has hung over the MCU for more than five years, since Avengers: Endgame gave viewers an easy jumping off point. In that time, Marvel has released 25 movies, TV series, and specials, few of them pleasing all but the most committed fans.
It’s no surprise that, since he came back as Disney’s CEO, Bob Iger has talked several times about reducing MCU output. He hasn’t offered much in the way of specifics until now, but that still raises questions about the franchise’s future success.
Bob Iger Reduces Marvel Output
In a quarterly earnings call described by Variety, Iger clarified the company’s Marvel plan moving forward. “We’re slowly going to decrease volume and go to probably about two TV series a year instead of what had become four and reduce our film output from maybe four a year to two,...

When Chris Evans Reflected On His Captain America Role In The MCU( Photo Credit – IMDb )
Chris Evans is a Hollywood heartthrob whose MCU character, Captain America, aka Steve Rogers, is a righteous man.

He might have retired from the role, but there are rumors he will return for another spin. Keep scrolling for more.
Evans previously portrayed another Marvel character, but that did not bring as much popularity as Cap from the MCU. He appeared as the Human Torch in The Fantastic Four movies.

This Peter Parker essentially had to start from scratch, and will probably be rubbing shoulders with street-level vigilantes like Daredevil and The Punisher, before he gets to become a part of anything like the Avengers.

However, despite most of the plotlines of the film being wrapped up, there are certain exciting threads that fans want to see explored in future installments of the franchise.

Ang Lee's Hulk was released when the superhero movie genre was very much in its infancy. It joined a small club of early 2000s titles that includes Blade, X-Men, Spider-Man, and Daredevil, but the filmmaker's unique approach to adapting the Jade Giant for the screen split opinions.
Quite literally attempting to bring a comic book to life in a movie, the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon director didn't lack ambition with his approach, but the technology wasn't really there to pull off either his vision for the character or those comic book panel-inspired screen splits.
A moderate hit at the box office with a $245 million haul, the movie remains a disappointment in the eyes of many, including Lee himself. Five years later, Marvel Studios released The Incredible Hulk, and retained elements of this Green Goliath's origin story (albeit with Edward Norton replacing Eric Bana).

Rumor: Avengers: Secret Wars Will Finally Address Spider-man: No Way Home's Venom Post-Credits Scene
In Venom: Let There Be Carnage's surprise post-credits scene, Eddie Brock found himself mysteriously transported to the McU's Earth-616. The symbiote caught sight of Spider-Man on a news report and was clearly interested in tracking the web-slinger down.
There was no sign of him in Spider-Man: No Way Home until another stinger revealed that Eddie had decided against leaving Mexico.
When Doctor Strange unleashed his spell, Venom was sent home but left a piece of the symbiote behind. The stage was then set for Peter Parker to eventually get his own alien suit, though we still don't quite know how it would travel across the border to New York City.
In the three years since Spider-Man: No Way Home was released, we've been left to assume that this was a Sony-mandated add-on which isn't likely to lead anywhere.
However, according to a new rumour shared by The Cosmic Circus' @AlexFromCC,...

Doctor Doom has been touted to be one of the main antagonists of the MCU as the studio’s plans with Kang the Conqueror seemed to have taken a back burner due to Jonathan Majors’ firing. The character has been one of the most beloved villains in the Marvel universe and fans have been waiting for his arrival into the franchise.
Ahead of his rumored appearance in Avengers: Secret Wars, Doctor Doom made a cameo in the Disney Plus series X-Men ‘97. The latest episode of the series sees him aligned with the Zero Tolerance group, which is headed by Bastion and also has Zemo. However, Doom’s involvement with the group has irked fans as the character is not as villainous as the others.

Alan Silvestri is a legendary composer who counts like likes of Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, Lilo & Stitch, and Ready Player One among his many credits. He's also something of an icon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Responsible for creating the now unmistakable theme for Earth's Mightiest Heroes first heard in 2012's The Avengers, Silvestri kicked off his MCU run by lending his talents to Captain America: The First Avenger. He'd later return for Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
Total Film recently caught up with the composer and asked if he's planning to work on another Marvel movie.
"Well, it looks like that could be happening, I just can’t talk about it [Laughs]," he teased. "I love that universe, for sure." While The Fantastic Four seems like a possibility for Silvestri, we'd be shocked if Marvel Studios isn't lining him up for Avengers 5 and Avengers: The Kang Dynasty...

Chris Evans first played Steve Rogers in 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger and, after multiple appearances across the MCU (including in the Avengers and Spider-Man franchises), the actor finally bid farewell to the role in Avengers: Endgame.
Steve has been M.I.A. ever since, though his final fate still hasn't been revealed to us. However, with the Multiverse in play, there are endless possibilities regarding Captain America's return in Avengers: Secret Wars.
Over the weekend, it was reported that Evans is now a lock for that movie. While we anticipate him assembling alongside the other original six Avengers as the "classic" Cap, we'd bet on the actor playing a few different Variants as well.
Below, you'll find some of the most exciting, intriguing, and likely possibilities...

The MCU has faced some tough times lately, with many big movies not doing well and even breaking some bad records. A lot of the new stuff coming up gets trashed on social media before it even comes out.
Take ‘Captain America: Brave New World,’ for example. There’s a chunk of fans who just won’t accept Sam Wilson as Captain America, even though Steve Rogers got a good ending to his story.
However, most fans are pretty pumped about the upcoming ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ and ‘Secret Wars.’ A big reason is the possibility of different versions of characters. ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is already buzzing with talk of 25 cameos and variants, and ‘Secret Wars’ is expected to double that once the media blitz kicks in. Marvel’s well aware of the hype, which is why they dropped an official reference to it during CinemaCon. In one scene, Deadpool starts...

MCU has been on sort of a downward spiral recently, with several of its biggest productions failing, setting unflattering records. Most of the upcoming productions also get negative feedback on social media even before they are released.
Just take a look at ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ and a decent-sized part of the fandom that refuses to accept Sam Willson as Captain America despite Steve Rogers getting a perfect closure for his story arc.
Almost the entire fandom is however excited about the upcoming ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ and ‘Secret Wars,’ mostly due to hope fueled by the concept of variants. ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ already has 25 rumored & confirmed cameos and variants, and ‘Secret Wars,’ when the media coverage of the movie starts to the fullest, will easily have double that. Marvel expects that, this is why it was already referenced by the studio officially during the CinemaCon presentation when Deadpool starts...

Even though the Marvel Cinematic Universe is incredibly secretive with Avengers 5, just like every other one of its projects, leaks about the casting for the movie seem to be popping up nonetheless. This comes after the renowned industry scooper Daniel Richtman recently threw in some reported details about which superheroes could be seen in the 2026-scheduled film.

While fans were expecting to hear a lot of names from all the new superheroes introduced by the MCU, they were inevitably disappointed after Richtman revealed Kevin Feige’s plan for the next installment in the Avengers saga.

Fox’s X-Men movies may have brought some of the most fan-favorite mutants to live-action, but they have struggled as far as fan reactions go. Often criticized for one thing or the other, particularly over poorly written characters to time inconsistencies, fans and critics have found several reasons to remain unsatisfied.

Undoubtedly, the movies’ greatest gift to fans has been casting Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. While his portrayal of the iconic character has left many captivated, he has often overshadowed other X-Men characters. And one Avengers: Endgame writer has a bone to pick with Fox movies for stealing one X-Men’s spotlight and handing it over to Wolverine.

X-Men ’97 has had massive success among the Marvel fans. The animated series, which is a revival and continuation of the ’90s X-Men show, has generated immense hype. However, it has also attracted very strong criticism regarding the character of Rogue. The fans did not appreciate how the show pulled off some insane de-sexualization of the curvaceous figure of Rogue.
Rogue in X-Men ’97
Since the first trailer dropped, many fans who found their first love in Rogue in the 90s complained on the internet that her physique was drastically changed in the new animation. In some scenes, Rogue’s butt looked extremely flat. However, the Rogue voice actress, Lenore Zann, seems to have found the perfect way to address the criticism by paying homage to the iconic “America’s Ass.”

With Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame being such box office successes, many fans assumed that the Russo Brothers (Anthony and Joe Russo) would return to direct Avengers: Secret Wars. But in the years that followed, a lot changed.
During that period, the Russo Brothers helmed a few flicks through their Agbo company. Among them are the crime drama Cherry, starring Tom Holland and Ciara Bravo, and the action thriller The Gray Man, featuring Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans.

The Russos, via their Agbo company, have delivered two films in that time that they themselves have directed, the drama “Cherry” with Tom Holland for Apple and the would-be Netflix franchise “The Gray Man” with Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, an expensive affair that never took off with critics.

Sam Raimi found great success with the ‘Spider-Man’ film trilogy, each installment grossing over $800 million worldwide. However, plans for further sequels were halted due to script issues. Disappointed with ‘Spider-Man 3,’ Raimi aimed to redeem the franchise with ‘Spider-Man 4,’ which unfortunately never came to fruition. In 2022, he expressed regret about not ending the series on a high note.
Despite this, Raimi’s involvement with Spider-Man continued as he and Marc Webb served as creative consultants for Marvel Studios’ ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home,’ directed by Jon Watts. Recently, rumors have circulated about Raimi directing ‘Avengers: Secret Wars,’ the highly anticipated installment in the ‘Avengers’ franchise.
Recently, Raimi stated his desire to direct the final Phase 6 movie, but unfortunately, the studio hasn’t approached him yet.
I love 90% of the Marvel heroes that I’ve read in the great Stan Lee Marvel Universe comic books. I would love to work with Marvel again.

The MCU has a bunch of projects lined up for release in 2024, 2025, and beyond. While several movies are currently in the works and affected by strikes, none are as highly anticipated as ‘Avengers 5’ and ‘Avengers: Secret Wars.’ These films are expected to continue the MCU’s tradition of epic crossovers.
Just like ‘Infinity War’ and ‘Endgame,’ these two movies will be released only a year apart. However, unlike before, they won’t be filmed back-to-back, and they’ll be developed by two separate teams of writers and directors.
Very little is known about the director of ‘Secret Wars.’ The latest rumors suggested Sam Raimi as a top contender, but Raimi himself denied these rumors, stating that the studio hasn’t approached him yet. Despite the lack of official information, fans are speculating, and one recent name dropped is Quentin Tarantino. He’s supposedly retiring and working on his last film.
