Marvel Studios announces new release dates for upcoming films due to global coronavirus crisis; Into the Spider-Verse 2 is delayed
Dates of dates continue in the Marvel superhero cinema following recent changes announced by both Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures. Thus, after the reorganization of Phase 4 films of the UCM, now the company led by Kevin Feige announces new dates for 2022 after confirming the delay of Spider-Man 3 (provisional title) with Sony Pictures in late 2021, adding, in addition, a new movie, for now without a confirmed title, for 2022. And last but not least, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 or Spider-Man: A new universe 2, the sequel to the Oscar-winning animated film by Sony Pictures and Marvel, also suffers from its particular delay.
Spider-Verse 2's Into goes to October 2022
We start with the most striking change of date, which is none other than Spider-Man 3, a movie that for now has no definitive title, although it should include the word "Home" in it; Thus, the third part of Spidey at the UCM goes to November 5, 2021 instead of July of that same year.
This move makes Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness go to March 25, 2022, which has also caused Thor: Love and Thunder to distance itself a little from the Doctor Strange sequel and now premieres on February 11, 2022. instead of the 18th of the same month.
In addition, a new Marvel Studios movie is added for October 7, 2022, the title of which is kept secret for now; the rumors point to a new Avengers movie or even Deadpool 3 after its purchase from Fox. Be that as it may, and if that calendar is maintained, in 2022 we will have up to 5 UCM movies together with Black Panther II and Captain Marverl 2, remaining as follows:
- Thor: Love and Thunder: February 11, 2022
- Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: March 25, 2022
- Black Panther II: May 6, 2022
- Captain Marvel 2: July 8, 2022
- Untitled Movie: October 7, 2022
Finally and as part of Sony's Spiderverse, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 is delayed to October 7, 2022 instead of April 8 of the same year.
