Upcoming Superhero Movies in 2026 and Beyond

Whether you’re a DC or Marvel enthusiast, the next few years promise big things in the superhero world. James Gunn is completely reshaping DC with his new vision, while Marvel is trying to get back on track with a highly anticipated return of Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. These developments are thrilling, but there’s a lot riding on their success – the financial stakes are enormous, comparable to the blockbuster Avengers: Endgame. With Warner Bros. Discovery potentially being sold, Gunn’s position as head of DC Studios is now less secure. Add to that the fact that Marvel hasn’t released as much content lately, and you have a situation where the future of superhero movies – whether they soar to new heights or finally falter – will be decided in the next three years. Read on for a detailed look at what’s coming up and why it matters so much.
