Disney CEO Bob Iger has revealed huge changes coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which could impact the shape of the franchise’s upcoming release schedule.
Speaking at Disney’s latest earnings call, The Walt Disney Company’s CEO Bob Iger revealed that Marvel Studios would be slowing down output and putting more focus on the MCU’s heavy-hitters and popular franchises. Interestingly, Iger only mentioned Captain America: Brave New World and Fantastic Four as Marvel Studios’ 2025 releases (via X), while Thunderbolts and Blade are also expected to release in 2025.
