MCU Phase 6 Release Dates: What Movies Come After Fantastic Four: First Steps?

by

The sixth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has officially begun, and fans are eagerly awaiting the next movie following “Fantastic Four: New Leaves”. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait for the release date of the next Marvel film. However, there are other titles in the MCU to keep you entertained until then. Here are the release dates for all the Phase Six movies and TV series that you can look forward to.

MCU Phase Six Movie release dates

For a while, Phase Six of the Marvel Cinematic Universe faced some difficulties. Initially planned to kick off with Fantastic Four on November 8, 2024, this phase was supposed to continue with Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars in 2025. However, a writers’ strike in 2023 disrupted the early stages of production for numerous Marvel projects, and Jonathan Majors, who portrayed Kang, faced allegations leading to his conviction for harassment and reckless assault. Consequently, Phase Six underwent significant adjustments, and its release dates were postponed. The Fantastic Four’s launch date was swapped with that of Thunderbolts* (which was also delayed), while the fifth Avengers film, now called Doomsday, was rescheduled for December 18, 2026.

*Note: In this context, “Thunderbolts” refers to a team of supervillains and antiheroes in the Marvel universe who were reimagined as a team of heroes in the MCU movies.

The MCU Phase Six movie release dates are currently:

  • July 25, 2025: The Fantastic Four: First Steps
  • July 31, 2026: Spider-Man: Brand New Day
  • December 18, 2026: Avengers: Doomsday
  • July 23, 2027: TBA
  • December 17, 2027: Avengers: Secret Wars

MCU Phase Six TV Show release dates

To date, we’ve learned about six MCU TV series slated for Phase Six, many of which currently have tentative air dates.

  • August 1, 2025: Eyes of Wakanda
  • October 3, 2025: Marvel Zombies
  • December 2025: Wonder Man
  • March 2026: Daredevil: Born Again Season 2
  • TBD 2026: Vision Quest
  • TBD 2026: Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Season 2
  • TBD 2026: Untitled Punisher Special

It’s worth mentioning that Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Phase Six is scheduled to end with Avengers: Secret Wars by the close of 2027. However, it seems plausible that the list provided might not be exhaustive, as Marvel has expressed plans to release two MCU movies and four TV series per year. As of now, we’re looking forward to seeing the schedule for these releases through 2027.
