Upcoming Movies: Release Dates From 2018 to 2022
Upcoming Movies DC, Marvels And Fox Universe Relesing Date Form 2018 To 2022
Universe: X-Men Universe
Release Date: May 18, 2018
Director: David Leitch
Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin, Zazie Beets, T.J. Miller
What We Know So Far: While Deadpool director Tim Miller was originally supposed to return to helm Deadpool 2, he left the sequel in Fall 2016 over creative differences. Reynolds and 20th Century Fox subsequently set John Wick and Atomic Blonde director David Leitch to take over, but then came the long process of casting two major new roles. Domino, the female lead, went to Atlanta breakout Zazie Beets, while the casting of Cable proved as lengthy as it was complex. Names like Michael Shannon and David Harbour surfaced, and Brad Pitt at one point considered the role, but ultimately Josh Brolin is the one who signed on to play Deadpool’s favorite frenemy.
2.Ant-Man and the Wasp (July 6, 2018)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe
We currently know very little about the
Ant-Man sequel. But we do know that Peyton Reed will return to direct Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, and that Evangeline Lily will suit up as the Wasp to help him fight crime. The Wasp will be the first female superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to get her name in the movie’s title. It only took a decade. Newcomers Michelle Pfeiffer and Laurence Fishburneround out the cast.
One confusing side note: Ant-Man and the Wasp will premiere after Infinity War hits theaters, but the events depicted in the movie take place before Infinity War. The trailer for the upcoming Marvel movie sets the Ant-Man action firmly between the events of Civil War and Infinity War.
3.Venom (Oct. 5, 2018)
Music by: Ludwig Göransson
Cinematography :Matthew Libatique
Production company :Columbia Pictures
Marvel Entertainment

Production company :Columbia Pictures
Marvel Entertainment

This Sony Pictures spinoff is intended to kick off a new loosely-connected universe of Marvel Comics adaptations, but Venom will not take place in the same universe as the Marvel Studios/Sony co-production Spider-Man: Homecoming. This is planned as an R-rated adaptation of the symbiote storyline, described as something of a twist on the horror genre, and Venom will be portrayed as an anti-hero with Carnage serving as the villain. The movie takes place in San Francisco and is primarily based on two comics arcs: Planet of the Symbiotes and Lethal
A recently released teaser trailer revealed little about the plot. But we do know Tom Hardy will play Venom, a man who has been infected by an alien parasite and turns into a dark version of Spider-Man. Sony and Disney executives have said Spider-Man actor Tom Holland will not appear in Venom, though it’s hard to imagine a movie that tells Venom’s origin story without introducing his foe, Spider-Man. Zombieland’s Ruben Fleischer is directing.

What We Know So Far: Sony originated this animated Spider-Man movie with an idea by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, with Lord penning the script solo while the duo prepped their untitled Han Solo spinoff. This animated feature will kick off a new Spider-Man franchise different from the live-action one, but the kicker is that the Spider-Man of this movie is the black Miles Morales, not Peter Parker. Which means we’ll get our first non-white Spider-Man in 2018. Dope standout Shameik Moore has been set to voice Spidey, while Liev Schreiber is playing the film’s villain—although character details are under wraps. Schreiber, however, has teased that the film has a throwback tone.
The story finds Morales slipping into an alternate dimension populated by a variety of different Spider-Men—which is how Peter Parker comes into play.
Release Date: February 8, 2019

5.Silver and Black (Feb. 8, 2019)
Universe: Spiderverse
Release Date: February 8, 2019
Confirmed Cast: None
Director: Gina Prince-Bythewood
Writers: Lisa Joy and Christopher Yost
Sony is wasting no time in expanding the Spiderverse. They’ve recruited Gina Prince-Bythewood (Love & Basketball, Beyond the Lights) to make a movie about Silver Sable and Black Cat. Plot details are scarce, but Silver Sable, the head of an elite squad, will likely be hunting down the talented burglar Black Cat—until they join forces. Prince-Bythewood has cited buddy movies like Thelma & Louise as her inspiration for the film.
6.Dark Phoenix (Feb. 14, 2019)
Universe: X-Men
Game of Thrones‘ Sophie Turner took over from Famke Janssen as the younger version of the formidable mutant Jean Grey in 2016’s X-Men: Apocalypse. Next year, she’ll star in her own movie about Jean Grey’s evolution from superhero into supervillain. The story will be set in the 1990s, and Jean will have to contend with the dark forces in her own mind.
Fox tried to bring the beloved Dark Phoenix saga to the screen in the much-maligned X-Men: The Last Stand. Simon Kinsburg wrote that film, but has since criticized the studio for relegating the Dark Phoenix story to a subplot. Now, he’ll return as director of Dark Phoenix to make the movie he always envisioned. Jennifer Lawrence will return as Mystique, Michael Fassbender as Magneto and James McAvoy as Professor X. Jessica Chastain will play a mysterious villain.
7.Captain Marvel (March 8, 2019)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Captain Marvel - March 8, 2019
Though originally meant to drop in late 2018, the anticipated Captain Marvel film is now scheduled to be released as the first Marvel Studios film of 2019. The blockbuster will center on Marvel character Carol Danvers in what's said to be a very earthbound adventure (though her powers are "in the cosmic realm," having come from the alien race known as the Kree). It's also been confirmed that the movie will be an origin story for the titular character, will co-star Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, will be set in the 1990s, and will be the first in the franchise to specifically feature the aliens known as the Skrulls.According to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, fans shouldn't expect to see Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel (played by Oscar winner Brie Larson) until her solo film in 2019, so don't get your hopes up about her playing a key role in The Avengers: Infinity War. It isn't clear exactly how the story will be affected by the Avengers storyline, but that's something we're excited to see revealed on the big screen. Find the most recent updates on Captain Marvel HERE.
8.Avengers 4 (May 3, 2019)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Univers
Untitled Avengers: Infinity War Sequel - May 3, 2019
It won't be until one full year later that fans will get to see the end of The Avengers: Infinity War, and we expect to be foaming at the mouth by May 3, 2019. As little as we know about the events that will unfold in the first Avengers movie in Phase 3, we know even less about where the untitled sequel will go, as it will depend on where the first half of the story leaves the heroes in their battle against Thanos.
How will Earth's Mightiest Heroes manage to fight an alien who winds up possessing the powers of a god? It certainly seems like an impossible task, but stopping the Chitauri Invasion and the rise of Ultron could have been described the same way. We can't wait to see what Joe and Anthony Russo and Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely do with this one. Find the most recent updates on the Untitled Avengers: Infinity War Sequel HERE.
9.Gambit (June 7, 2019)
Universe: X-Men
Channing Tatum has been trying to get a Gambit movie made for years. The Magic Mike actor plans to star as the New Orleans-based thief with the ability to charge inanimate objects (like playing cards) with explosive power.The movie was initially supposed to start production in 2015, but Fox placed it on the back burner after two different directors dropped out. Tatum has said he wanted to do something edgier and more original with the character. Recent superhero movies like Logan and Deadpool, which experimented with genre, have opened up the door for Gambit to take big risks.
The studio has yet to announce a new director for the upcoming movie after Gore Verbinski dropped out in January. Fox has subsequently pushed the movie’s release date.(June 7, 2019)
10.Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 (July 5, 2019)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Spider-Man will definitely survive the Infinity War movies because he’s contractually obligated to star in another two more Spider-Man films. Tom Holland will return as geeky teen Peter Parker and Zendaya will also appear as Mary Jane. Though Robert Downey Jr. played a major role in the first film as Spider-Man’s mentor, Holland has confirmed that Iron Man won’t appear in Homecoming 2.Disney and Sony have held other details about the plot close to the chest.
11.The New Mutants (Aug. 2, 2019)
Fox has slowly been building a cohort of young actors to take over the X-Men movies when actors like James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence inevitably exit the franchise. (They are already the second group of actors to play the X-Men. Ian McKellan, Hugh Jackman and Halle Berry were among the first group.)They introduced new actors to play younger versions of the characters from the original X-Men movies like Sophie Turner as Jean Grey and Alexandra Shipp as Storm in X-Men: Apocalypse. But they also are pulling characters from the comics and giving them big screen debuts, like Dafne Keen as X-23 in Logan.
12.Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2020)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe
James Gunn, who directed the first two Guardians films, has already promised a third movie, due out sometime in 2020. We don’t know much about the plot, though we do know that the Guardians will play some role in battling Thanos in Infinity War. Gamora and Nebula are the adopted daughters of Thanos and probably know him best. Plus, in the trailer for Infinity War, the Guardians pick up Thor floating in space. Thanos presumably destroyed Thor’s ship in search of the Tessearct, one of the Infinity Stones, and the God of Thunder will have to team up with the Guardians.
Gunn has also hinted that a Guardians spinoff could be in the works. In a post-credits scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 ravagers played by Sylvester Stallone, Michelle Yeoh and others talk about reuniting a fractured team of heroes. The Ravagers could get their own movie.
13.Shazam! (April 5, 2019)
Universe: DC
Director: David F. Sandberg
Cast: Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, and Mark Strong
What We Know So Far: Making his superhero movie debut, Dwayne Johnson opted to take on the role of the villainous Black Adam in this DC comics adaptation, but Warner Bros. has now decided to hold Johnson for a separate Black Adam movie, so Shazam will be all about that hero. Lights Out and Annabelle: Creation director David F. Sandberg is directing, and this is being planned as Warner Bros.’ next DCEU film in production after Aquaman.Zachary Levi has been cast as the title superhero character, with Asher Angel playing his boy counterpart Billy Batson. The story revolves around a young boy who can transform into a powerful superhero simply by uttering the word “Shazam!”. Mark Strong is in line to play the film’s villain, Dr. Thaddeus Sivana.
14.Wonder Woman 2(November 1, 2019)
Universe: DC
Director: Patty Jenkins
Cast: Gal Gadot
What We Know So Far: Very little, but Wonder Woman marked a major turning point for the DCEU with wildly positive reviews and massive box office, so anticipation is high. Negotiations with Patty Jenkins to return to direct took a bit, but she got hers and is now officially slated to return. And while rumors have swirled about a potential 1980s-set sequel revolving around the Cold War, Jenkins is said to be already working on a story treatment with Geoff Johns.15.Doctor Strange 2 (2021)
Universe: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Marvel has not officially confirmed an upcoming Doctor Strange sequel. But C. Robert Cargill, who wrote the first film, and director Scott Derrickson recently revealed at a screening that they already have a concept and villain for the second movie. If their idea is green lit, Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) will likely fight Nightmare, the ruler of the Dream Dimension. They also hinted that Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) would play a major role in the story.
