The Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding--big time. The studio laid out several new movies coming in the MCU's Phase 4 during its panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, starting with Black Widow on May 1, 2020, and including several other movies and TV series to build fan's hype.
Panel-goers got a close look at Black Widow, the first standalone film for the Avengers character played by Scarlett Johansson. That movie is a prequel, filling in the backstory of the former Agent of SHIELD and Russian spy. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige filled fans in on the movie's cast, and there was even a trailer that ran during the panel. Fans also heard about other movies coming in 2020, including The Eternals and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, and new information about previously announced series Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Loki.
