Many of these entries will come as sequels for characters established in the Infinity Saga while other will introduce heroes from Marvel Comics for their first big-screen appearances.

While a number of these projects have their stories pretty much set into stone for the time being, there are plenty Phase 4 entries that are in the earliest stages of development and still figuring out which characters will be involved. Additionally, news has just arrived that will likely come as a shock even for those expecting the unexpected in the MCU.
