Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is a group of American superhero films and television series produced by Marvel Studios based on characters that appear in publications by Marvel Comics. Phase Four features all of the Marvel Studios productions set to be released from 2021 through 2023. It is the first phase in the franchise to include television series, with Marvel Studios developing several event series for the streaming service Disney+ in addition to the feature films that it was already set to produce. Phase Four began with the series WandaVision, which premiered in January 2021, while the first theatrical film in this phase is Black Widow, which was released in July 2021 by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The release schedule of Phase Four was changed several times due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Kevin Feige produces every film and executive produces every series in this phase, alongside producers Jonathan Schwartz for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Nate Moore for Eternals, Amy Pascal for Spider-Man: No Way Home, and Brad Winderbaum for Thor: Love and Thunder.
The films of this phase include Black Widow with Scarlett Johansson returning as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings starring Simu Liu, the ensemble Eternals, the sequels Spider-Man: No Way Home from Sony Pictures Releasing with Tom Holland returning as Peter Parker / Spider-Man, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness with Benedict Cumberbatch returning as Dr. Stephen Strange, Thor: Love and Thunder with Chris Hemsworth returning as Thor, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania starring Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly, the ensemble Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and The Marvels starring Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris, and Iman Vellani, along with Fantastic Four.
The Disney+ television series of this phase include WandaVision with Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany in the title roles, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier with Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan in the title roles, the first season of Loki starring Tom Hiddleston, the first and second seasons of the animated What If...? narrated by Jeffrey Wright, Hawkeye starring Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld, Moon Knight starring Oscar Isaac, Ms. Marvel starring Iman Vellani, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law starring Tatiana Maslany, Secret Invasion starring Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn, Ironheart starring Dominique Thorne, Armor Wars starring Don Cheadle, and a series set in Wakanda starring Danai Gurira. The untitled Halloween special starring Gael García Bernal, the ensemble The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, and the series of short films I Am Groot starring Vin Diesel will also be included in this phase.
Development
By October 2016, The Walt Disney Studios had scheduled multiple release dates for untitled Marvel Studios films for 2020 and 2021. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige said some of the films for those dates were already known, explaining, "We know what [films] we'd like them to be for 2020. Over the years, where we're aiming we've been lucky enough that it's usually been the same thing but we always leave ourselves the opportunity to bob and weave and adapt if we have to."[1] Feige was not sure if Marvel would continue to group the films of the MCU into phases once Phase Three concluded in 2019, saying that "it might be a new thing",[2] but by December 2018, Marvel was believed to be using the term Phase Four.[3] Feige said Marvel hoped to reveal some upcoming films after the release of Avengers: Endgame (2019),[4] with The Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger later indicating that Marvel would reveal its slate of post-Avengers: Endgame films in mid-2019.[5]
By November 2017, Disney was developing a Marvel television series specifically for release on its new streaming service Disney+, which was planned to launch before the end of 2019.[6] In September 2018, Marvel Studios was revealed to be developing several limited series for the service, to be centered on "second-tier" characters from the MCU films who had not and were unlikely to star in their own films; the actors who portrayed the characters in the films were expected to reprise their roles for the series. Stories for each series were still being decided on, but the series were expected to be six to eight episodes each and have a "hefty [budget] rivaling those of a major studio production". The series would be produced by Marvel Studios rather than Marvel Television, which produced the previous television series set in the MCU. Feige was taking a "hands-on role" in each series' development,[7] focusing on "continuity of story" with the films and "handling" the actors who would be reprising their roles from the films.[8] Feige stated in February 2019 that the series would be "entirely interwoven with both the current MCU, the past MCU, and the future of the MCU",[9] and a month later he elaborated that the series would take characters from the films, change them, and see those changes reflected in future films, unlike the weaker relationship the films have with the Marvel Television series. He also said that new characters introduced in the Disney+ series could go on to appear in films.[10] In May, Feige compared the Disney+ series to the Marvel One-Shots short films that Marvel Studios had previously released alongside their films, saying, "The best thing about the One-Shots is that we got to flesh out other characters. It's tremendously exciting that we now have Disney+ series where we get to do that on a grand scale".[11]

In July 2019, Marvel Studios held a panel at San Diego Comic-Con where Feige announced the full Phase Four slate. This included five films to be released—Black Widow, Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Thor: Love and Thunder—as well as five event series to be released on Disney+—The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Loki, What If...?, and Hawkeye.[12] He confirmed that there would be connections between the films and series,[13] with the events of WandaVision directly setting up Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Loki tying into it.[14][15] Feige stated that these ten projects were the full Phase Four slate at that point, despite Marvel already developing further projects at that time,[16] such as the long-in-development Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,[17] sequels to Black Panther (2018) and Captain Marvel (2019),[18][19] and a film based on the Fantastic Four.[20] Feige also noted that the studio had films scheduled to be released after 2021 which would not be officially announced or given release dates at that time.[21] A month later at D23, Feige announced three more Disney+ series that would be released as part of the Phase Four slate: Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight,[22] and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law,[22][23] as well as the Black Panther sequel with the placeholder title Black Panther II and a May 6, 2022, release.[24] In September, Disney and Sony Pictures announced that Marvel Studios and Feige would return to produce Spider-Man: No Way Home, set for release during this phase,[25][26] while an Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018) sequel entered development by November 2019, having a potential 2022 release.[27] Development work on a second season of What If...? had begun by December 2019.[28]
Black Widow was removed from Disney's release schedule in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[29] Discussing this decision for Variety, Adam B. Vary and Matt Donnelly questioned whether the MCU could be impacted more by this delay than other big properties due to the interconnected nature of the franchise, though a Marvel Studios source told the pair that changing Black Widow's release date would not affect the rest of the MCU timeline.[30] In April, Disney changed its entire Phase Four release slate, scheduling Black Widow when Eternals had been set for release in November 2020 and moving all its other Phase Four films back in the schedule to accommodate this. Disney also scheduled Captain Marvel 2 for release on July 8, 2022.[31] Later that month, Sony delayed Spider-Man: No Way Home to November 2021, resulting in Disney adjusting the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder.[32] In July 2020, Disney confirmed that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier would not release in August 2020 as planned, because the series had not completed filming due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[33] while Sony pushed back the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home to December 2021.[34] In early September, WandaVision was set to be the first television series released for the phase as The Falcon and the Winter Soldier's release was pushed back to 2021 due to its production delays.[35][36] Later that month, Black Widow's release was delayed to May 2021, resulting in Eternals and Shang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings also being rescheduled;[37] this made 2020 the first year since 2009 without a Marvel Studios release.[38] When adjusting the release of the films and series in the phase, Marvel Studios was being cognizant to ensure major story points would not be spoiled with the new release order,[14] but Feige noted many of the properties in the Phase were mostly standalone or a continuation from Endgame.[39] He also credited the studio's "long lead plan" for being able to avoid any creative shifts to their Phase Four plans because of the pandemic, only shuffling release dates and production schedules.[40] Additionally, he stated that many of the series had their release dates shifted only "by a matter of weeks" from their original dates.[41] The only significant aspect of the phase that was affected by the pandemic was Julia Louis-Dreyfus's introduction as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, which came in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier rather than Black Widow as was originally planned, since Black Widow ended up being released after the series.[42][43]
In December 2020, Marvel Studios adjusted Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Panther II, and Captain Marvel 2 back in its schedule, to May 6, July 8, and November 11, 2022, respectively,[44][45][46] and dated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 for 2023.[47] They also announced Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Fantastic Four were in development,[48][49][50] along with the Disney+ series Secret Invasion, Ironheart, and Armor Wars,[51] The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, and the series of short films I Am Groot.[52][47] Feige indicated Secret Invasion and Ironheart would tie-in with future MCU films.[53] These new Disney+ series, plus Black Panther II, Captain Marvel 2, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and Fantastic Four were confirmed to be part of Phase Four.[54] In February 2021, a drama series set in Wakanda for the phase was revealed to be in development from Ryan Coogler, writer and director of Black Panther and its sequel, through his company Proximity Media.[55][56] The following month, Disney moved Black Widow to July 2021 (taking the spot of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), and announced that it would release simultaneously in theaters and on Disney+ with Premier Access. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings was moved to September 2021, with the intent for a theatrical-only release.[57] In May, Marvel Studios announced the titles for the Black Panther and Captain Marvel sequels as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and The Marvels, respectively, as well as the respective February 17 and May 5, 2023, releases dates for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.[58] Feige described the phase as being about "continuing in new ways and... leaving the Infinity Saga behind [for] a new beginning".[59]
By August 2021, a Halloween-themed television special for Disney+ was in development, reportedly centered on Werewolf by Night.[60] In October 2021, Marvel Studios further adjusted Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Thor: Love and Thunder, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever to May 6, July 8, and November 11, 2022, respectively, while moving The Marvels to February 17, 2023, and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania to July 28, 2023,[61] because of production-related issues.[61][62] In April 2022, Marvel Studios swapped the release dates of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and The Marvels, given Quantumania was further along in production than The Marvels.[63]
In late June 2022, Feige indicated that Phase Four was nearing its conclusion, stating audiences would begin to see where the next saga of the MCU would be heading, and that there had been many clues in the phase to what that would be. He said Marvel Studios would be a "little more direct" on their future plans in the following months to provide audiences with "the bigger picture [so they] can see a tiny, tiny bit more of the roadmap";[64] Marvel Studios will have panels at both San Diego Comic-Con in July 2022 and D23 in September 2022.[65][66] Marvel Studios has reserved November 3, 2023,[61] as well as February 16, May 3, July 26, and November 8, 2024, for films.[67]

By early 2018, Marvel Studios was developing a film for the Eternals, with Kaz Firpo and Ryan Firpo writing the script to focus on a love story between the characters Sersi and Ikaris.[121][122][74] Late that September, Chloé Zhao was hired to direct The Eternals,[74] and also served as the film's credited writer along with Patrick Burleigh and the Firpos.[75][76] Filming occurred from July 2019 to February 2020, shooting throughout England.[123][124] The main cast, headlined by Richard Madden as Ikaris and Angelina Jolie as Thena, was announced at the July 2019 San Diego Comic-Con,[12] with Gemma Chan cast as Sersi the next month.[24] The title was shortened in August 2020.[125] Eternals premiered in Los Angeles on October 18, 2021,[126] and was released in the United States on November 5.[37]

Ahead of WandaVision premiering to start the phase, Julia Alexander at The Verge wondered if Marvel Studios would be oversaturating their content, saying that having essentially "a new Marvel thing each week [in 2021] is either a blessing or a curse" depending on how viewers felt about the MCU. While Alexander felt franchise fatigue was possible, she said Marvel Studios and Disney's biggest concern was losing trust from the fanbase, pointing to the Star Wars sequel trilogy (2015–2019) as an example of a large portion of fans not being pleased with the quality of the content. Alexander was encouraged by the fact that Feige was leading development of the Disney+ series, unlike the past Marvel television series that were led by Marvel Television's Jeph Loeb, and she felt the studio "just needs to keep doing what it's already doing" and give the "same level of attention" to extending the overarching story from the past films to the Disney+ series.[448] With The Falcon and the Winter Soldier being described as a "six-hour movie", Christian Holub of Entertainment Weekly noted that this led to the series simultaneously "try[ing] to do too much and too little at once" and hoped future Disney+ series would be structured more like television episodes as WandaVision was, even if they did not employ the meta quality that series did with the format.[449]
Deadline Hollywood's Anthony D'Alessandro, writing after audiences polled by CinemaScore gave Eternals a "B" and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness a "B+" (two of the lowest CinemaScores for MCU films), said this should be a "splash of cold water in Marvel's face". He discussed some fan concerns that Phase Four was not as cohesive as the projects in the first three MCU phases, with most of those films building towards the Infinity Saga storyline, and felt that this was impacting on the box office of the new films. He suggested that Marvel Studios "regroup, re-think and get these movies back on track".[450] Meredith Loftus of Collider agreed that Phase Four felt "disjointed" by the release of Multiverse of Madness, stating that each project was "complex and challenging, exploring themes of grief, mental illness, and family trauma... [but] what's made Phase Four so strong is also its weakness—while we're getting to deepen new and old characters alike, the expansive universe these characters live in feels isolated". She highlighted Moon Knight's lack of connections to the rest of the MCU, and discussed how Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness did not address the events of Loki and Spider-Man: No Way Home as some had expected. Loftus concluded, "Maybe this is a lesson in audience expectations, but when a studio has built a cinematic universe off the back of each movie with a through-line story for over a decade, the lack of one in Phase Four makes it feel incomplete."[451] James Whitbrook of Gizmodo also noted the lack of a singular threat for each of the phase's projects, like Thanos in the Infinity Saga, and said the multiverse storyline was the closest the phase had got to a "unifying build-up". He added that "this sense of aimlessness feels odd to an audience that has, over a decade, been trained to connect the dots and see how each of Marvel's releases connects to the others", with the films and Disney+ series "rarely [feeling] like they're in conversation with each other".[452] Writing for Variety, Adam B. Vary agreed that "there is no sense yet of where Phase Four is heading—if, indeed, it is heading in any single direction", but he felt this could be "a feature, not a bug", explaining, "With the explosion of MCU content on Disney+, there may be simply too many titles to hold together into one consolidated storyline". He did note that the multiverse plays a significant role in Loki, What If...?, Spider-Man: No Way Home, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, that potential "Big Bads" had been introduced, including Kang, Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Arishem, and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, and that the phase could be building to an unannounced Young Avengers film since members of that team had been appearing in many Phase Four projects.[453] Journalists Joanna Robinson and Eric Goldman responded in support of Vary's article,[454][455] with Robinson adding that, despite what some fans believed, the Infinity Saga was not completely planned out and instead was made cohesive by "luck and cleverness".[454] Goldman felt that some of this was fans retroactively treating each Infinity Saga film as having more importance to the overall storyline than they did when first released, and he said the same could happen to the Phase Four films once more was known about their connections to the next storyline.[455]
Matthew Belloni, a former editor for The Hollywood Reporter and a writer for Puck News, and Sean Fennessey of The Ringer, discussed whether the MCU films and series were in a decline. Belloni noted how Marvel have "taken really idiosyncratic filmmakers in Chloé Zhao and Sam Raimi and tried to plug them into this formula, but given them a little bit more freedom" than previous MCU directors had for their films, and questioned whether this was a "mistake to stray too much from the Marvel formula?", and if this approach to "do it the same, but different" while still making it feel fresh and familiar for the audience would be necessary for the franchise to succeed going forward. Fennessey believed Marvel did not stray too much with these filmmakers, citing Marvel's history of hiring filmmakers with distinct tones and perspectives and being able to "blend [their] vision" with it, but felt the tone of Zhao's previous films did not "[make] any sense for a Marvel movie" or match Marvel's prior storytelling, and that Raimi's history with Marvel and his background making horror films was an attempt "to plug the dam" after Derrickson left as the Multiverse of Madness director, and that his hiring was "like a marriage of convenience and friendship, more so than like a bold choice to choose an unusual filmmaker". Fennessey said Eternals felt "fully disconnected" from the MCU's prior stories and that its more cosmic direction could lead toward future stories, but believed its "ill fit" and "very strange" choices behind the scenes made it look bad, and that the film was "more egregious" than Multiverse of Madness. Belloni compared the MCU's increasing output to Pixar when it began producing more animated films and said that experiencing a "drop-off in quality" was "the cost of doing business if you want to produce films at scale", but felt there was not a "huge cause for alarm at Marvel just yet".[456] Belloni later said that Marvel needed "to figure out how to generate Avenger-level interest from non-Avenger properties", and that the then-forthcoming releases of Marvel's next Disney+ series Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law would be "another big test for fans", but did not feel Marvel's series output was in trouble at that time.[457]
