Also, it will be interesting to see how the big baddie escapes the Quantum Realm – and who else will make it out alive with him.

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania launches into theaters February 17.

A new Captain America is here, and with him comes a new world order.

Chris Evans' chapter as the First Avenger has come to an end, we think, as his successor Sam Wilson, played by Anthony Mackie, takes over the mantle in the fourth Captain America movie.

Details about the superhero flick have been scarce.

But it was recently confirmed that Harrison Ford will now play Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross.

There have also been whispers that Evans could return as Steve Rogers.

But the movie is important to catch since Mackie's Cap will be leading the new Avengers against Kang – who's already been teased to be a serious problem.

Will he succeed? Find out when Captain America: New World Order hits theaters May 3.

Loki season one was not only a surprise hit, but it was also one of the few successful releases from MCU's Phase Four.

The series' season one finale was particularly praised, as it was the first appearance of Majors, who forewarns the God of Mischief about his dangerous variants.

While season two's plot hasn't been shared yet, the fact that the show revealed a huge spoiler in its finale proves how valuable Tom Hiddleston's titular show is.

In spite of the God of Mischief's deceitful ways, it's all for a glorious purpose.

Loki season two debuts mid-2023 on Disney+!

Fans should make sure they tune in for the weekly episodes of the new series Secret Invasion, which has been hailed as Marvel's biggest "crossover event."

Samuel L. Jackson and Cobie Smolders return as ex S.H.I.E.L.D agents Nick Fury and Maria Hill who take on the alien, shapeshifting species, the Skrulls, that have invaded earth.

Fellow Avenger James "Rhodey" Rhodes, played by Don Cheadle, has been confirmed to appear in the show.

But with shapeshifters roaming the world, one can only imagine what, or better yet whom, the aliens are impersonating.

Find out what other surprises will occur in the crossover event Secret Invasion, which premieres on Disney+ in early 2023.
