The MCU appears to be actively trying to move past the multiversal chaos of Phases 4 and 5, as evidenced by its upcoming slate of projects. Following the announcement of Robert Downey Jr.’s return, Marvel fans are arguably most excited for the much-awaited arrival of the Avengers sequels.

Kevin Feige shared an update about the future of 'Blade,' after Disney pulled the planned reboot from its 2025 release calendar.

Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige has given a number of somewhat vague but tantalizing updates on various M.I.A. MCU projects and characters at D23 Brazil, including Blade, Scarlet Witch, Miles Morales,

Feige emphasized that Marvel is prioritizing quality over speed, stating, “The most important thing for us is not rushing it and making sure we are making the right Blade movie.”

The Mahershala Ali-led reboot was scheduled for a Nov. 7, 2025 theatrical release before it was removed from Marvel's calendar.

It’s been a rough go for the MCU’s take on Blade. The movie has been halted and reimagined more times than anyone would have liked to see. And most recently, Marvel Studios removed Blade from its release calendar altogether,

Now, studio head Kevin Feige is dropping hints as to when the characters might truly receive the spotlight in upcoming Marvel films. Since 2019's Avengers: Endgame, there have been numerous references and cameos to the X-Men that have been sprinkled across major MCU entries.
