MCU’s Reset After Avengers: Secret Wars Won’t Be as Major as Some Thought

by

According to Alex Perez, a reliable source at The Cosmic Circus, rumors about Marvel Studios drastically changing its plans for the Marvel Cinematic Universe are likely untrue.

Rumors have circulated since 2021 that Marvel Studios intended to refresh the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Phase 6. Now, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed these plans, stating that the MCU will be reset after the ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ movie. He hinted in July that this film would focus on new beginnings. Feige emphasized that this will be a ‘reset’ rather than a complete ‘reboot,’ clarifying that they envision a single, refreshed timeline.

What will change in the MCU post-Avengers: Secret Wars?

Okay, so I was a little worried about how drastically the MCU might change after *Secret Wars*, but Kevin Feige’s co-worker, Brad Perez, has put my mind at ease. Apparently, it’s not going to be a complete reset! He says it’s more like a tidy-up, where they’ll tweak some details they want to revisit and maybe bring back a few heroes and villains. There will be some minor stuff erased that fans (and Feige himself!) aren’t thrilled with, but the core timeline – around 75 to 80 percent of it – will stay intact. It’s good to know they’re not throwing everything out and starting from scratch!

After the ‘Secret Wars’ event, many fans anticipate a unified Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline. This would combine Spider-Man, the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men, integrating the X-Men’s history so it seems they’ve always been part of the MCU. Recent comments suggest characters like Iron Man and Black Panther (T’Challa) might return, even if the actors who previously played them don’t reprise their roles, but these returns haven’t been officially confirmed yet.

All will likely be revealed when Avengers: Secret Wars opens in theaters on December 17, 2027.
