Avengers: Secret Wars
An upcoming film in Phase Six of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the finale of The Multiverse Saga.
Why it matters
The culmination of the Multiverse Saga, adapting the most ambitious crossover event in Marvel's comic history.
About Avengers: Secret Wars
Avengers: Secret Wars is built to close out the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Multiverse Saga, and it is designed as the second half of a pair with Avengers: Doomsday rather than a standalone film. Anthony and Joe Russo are directing, back on the series after Infinity War and Endgame, with Stephen McFeely writing. The title comes from Marvel's 1984 comic crossover and its 2015 successor, both of which turned on separate realities collapsing into a single patchwork world. Marvel has not said how closely the film follows either version.
Marvel has it dated for December 17, 2027, a year after Doomsday, sharing the day with Warner Bros.' The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum. Hold that date loosely. Filming was meant to start in mid-2026, and reporting later in the year suggested cameras still had not rolled, which has led trade coverage to question whether December 2027 survives. Marvel has not moved it. For planning purposes the order matters more than the day: Doomsday lands first, and this is written to follow it.
