On April 3, Disney finally released a statement regarding the slate of their upcoming theatrical releases they had been pushed back due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Black Widow
took
The Eternals
original spot of November 6, thereby pushing
The Eternals
to 2021 with a February 12 release date. Other Marvel titles have been pushed further as well:
Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings
will be out May 7, 2021,
Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness
November 5, 2021, and
Thor: Love and Thunder
to 2022 with a February 2022 release.
Black Panther 2
is sticking to its initial release date of May 8, 2022, however, we finally have confirmation of when Carol Danvers herself will be hitting the big screen once again.

According to
The Wrap
,
Captain Marvel 2
has now secured a release date of July 8, 2022, roughly three years after the release of
Captain Marvel
.

WHAT THIS MEANS
Up until now, nothing much had been said about the future of
Captain Marvel 2
. Back in February, it was reported that Marvel Studios had greenlit a new production for a project titled “Warbird Productions ll,” which most speculated to be the sequel to 2019’s
Captain Marvel
(which had its own production titled “Warbird Productions”).
It should come as no surprise, but Marvel filed the LLC “Warbird Productions II” on February 13th, which means Captain Marvel 2 is officially greenlit. pic.twitter.com/PDwczFfFi5
What seems more revealing, however, is how
Captain Marvel 2
has been pushed ahead of
Ant-Man 3
, which has yet to receive either a release date or any noteworthy production updates. Though the timeline this far out is still uncertain, it seems odd that the supposed
Ant-Man
trilogy won’t receive a conclusion until the latter half of 2022 at the earliest, almost five years after
Ant-Man and The Wasp
. Why Captain Marvel is getting the special treatment is unknown, and may mean that Marvel Studios is still working on what Phase 4 and the eventual Phase 5 storylines may bring.
