Rumors Suggest ‘Deadpool 3’ Could Potentially Be the Sole MCU Film Hitting Theaters Next Year
Marvel Studios faced challenges in 2023. ‘Quantumania’ received mixed reviews and struggled at the box office. However, ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ provided a silver lining, earning praise from both critics and fans as a satisfying trilogy conclusion. The year concluded on a less positive note with ‘The Marvels,’ a high-budget MCU film that set unfortunate records for the lowest MCU box office earnings and the largest second-week drop.
These disappointing results prompted the studio to reassess its approach. Rumors suggest that, in response to the underwhelming performance, Marvel is considering a strategic shift. ‘Deadpool 3’ might emerge as the sole MCU release next year, as the studio aims to inject fresh excitement and anticipation into the franchise, counting on the film to generate a significant box office turnout.
Reputable leaker Daniel Richtman asserts that ‘Deadpool 3’ holds significant importance in the Multiverse Saga, setting the stage for ‘Avengers: Secret Wars.’ Despite a 2024 release slate, numerous films were rescheduled due to the SAG-AFTRA strikes, causing a shift in dates between ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ and ‘Deadpool 3.’ Contrary to initial plans, Sam Wilson’s debut as Captain America might not occur in 2024.
Reports suggest extensive reshoots for ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ due to dissatisfactory action scenes, potentially contributing to its delayed release. ‘Deadpool 3,’ already 50% complete pre-strikes, recently resumed filming, promising a blend of action and nostalgia with former X-Men characters. The film marks Deadpool’s official integration into the MCU.
Rumors hint at a change in ‘Avengers: Secret Wars,’ with speculation that Doctor Doom could replace Kang as the main antagonist. All eyes will be on July 24, 2024, the release date of ‘Deadpool 3,’ for answers. Share your thoughts in the comments!
