Mutants are slowly but surely infiltrating the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In 2024, when the next Deadpool movie arrives, one of the most recognizable mutants will land on the scene: Wolverine.
Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, aka best friends Deadpool and Wolverine, released a couple of announcement videos for Deadpool 3. Aside from Jackman’s inclusion in the film, playing the character for the first time since 2017’s Logan, the biggest takeaway is its release date: Sept. 6, 2024.
In other news, Armor Wars, originally slated to be a Disney Plus series arriving in Phase 5 or 6 of the MCU, is now reportedly being redeveloped as a movie. It still doesn’t have a release date and the makeover will reportedly delay the project, but Don Cheadle is still slated to star as Jim Rhodes, aka War Machine.
More exciting Marvel tidbits leapt out of Disney’s D23 Expo in mid-September. We scored our first look at Disney Plus series Secret Invasion and halloween special Werewolf By Night. The latter has a solid release date: Oct. 7.
Below, you’ll find the MCU’s Phase Four, Five and Six release slate, including Disney Plus TV shows.
