On the expansive slate Disney released today, there are eight slots listed as "Untitled Marvel", two in 2020 and three each for 2021 and 2022. While it's unclear exactly what Marvel has planned for its post-Endgame movie releases, we do know some of films that expected in this next chapter for the MCU including a Black Widow movie, The Eternals, Shang-Chi, Black Panther 2, Captain Marvel 2, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 and Doctor Strange 2.

only two movies next year? 🤔
 
Fox's acquisition, ending an 11year old story arc and the fact that even fans will be burnt out after Endgame, I guess it makes sense to go a bit slow.
 
Filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo said on EW Morning Live that a character will be revealed as gay in an upcoming film, and they suggested it’s a person fans already know.

Last summer, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige said two openly gay characters would be revealed: “Both ones you’ve seen and ones you haven’t seen.”

“There is a gay character coming up in one of their films, and I think Kevin will make that announcement, I’m sure pretty soon,” Joe said.

According to Feige, the hardest sell to the studios was to cast Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man.

Also he indirectly confirmed that Mandarin would come back properly in MCU this time via the Shang Chi movie.
 
and one of the stupidest things they did was to have bleached eyebrows in thor 1 iirc.

Well some of the predictions in the last post came true. Let's see.

List of Movies announced:
  • Black Widow, starring Scarlett Johansson and Rachel Weisz and directed by Cate Shortland, arriving in theaters on May 1, 2020
  • The Eternals, starring Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek and directed by Chloe Zhao, arriving in theaters on November 6, 2020
  • Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, starring Simu Liu and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, arriving in theaters on February 12, 2021. Shang Chi will be Marvel’s first film with a lead character of Asian descent.
  • Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen (yes, Scarlet Witch) and directed by Scott Derrickson, arriving in theaters on May 7, 2021
  • Thor: Love and Thunder, directed by Taika Waititi and starring Natalie Portman (who will wield the legendary hammer as the first female Thor), Tessa Thompson, and Chris Hemsworth, arriving in theaters on November 5, 2021

List of TV shows announced:
  • The Falcon & Winter Soldier in fall 2020
  • WandaVision in spring 2021
  • Loki in spring 2021
  • WHAT IF ...? — an animated series featuring characters from the MCU in summer 2021
  • Hawkeye in fall 2021
Kevin Feige also confirmed that Black Panther 2 and Captain Marvel 2 are in development but refused to give out any dates. Safe to assume that they will be coming in 2022 then?

He also confirmed upcoming movies of X-Men and Fantastic Four but again didn't give any specific details. Will have to wait a bit longer for that. More details and hopefully a trailer or some footage will popup at Disney's D23 Convention scheduled to happen August 23 - 25, 2019 at Anaheim.

What was missing from Phase 4 announcements
No Spiderman
No Avengers
No Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3

I am guessing these are being reserved again either for the D23 convention or a future panel.
