In the wake of Avengers: Endgame, the MCU has begun to lose some of its original stars.

Something severely lacking from the first “Thor: Love and Thunder” trailer was the presence of a villain for our heroes to do battle against.

At approximately the 1:47 mark of the “Thor: Love and Thunder” trailer, we see Mighty Thor, aka Jane Foster, holding Mjölnir high above her head.

While the MCU is arguably the leader in fan hype for their comic book movies, some moments create more buzz than others.

In the MCU, things just got out of hand. While Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness showed Benedict Cumberbatch’s sorcerer exploring other universes and Wanda Maximoff unleashing her rage on its heroes, the film did something more.

While Marvel Cinematic Universe projects have become extremely commonplace in recent years, it takes years before those seeds start to sprout.

Before that, they get a title card and a release…
There was a giant question mark over “Deadpool 3” after the sale of 20th Century Fox to Disney, with many fans worried the R-rated franchise would not fit into Disney’s more toned-down Marvel offerings.

The 2016 film “Doctor Strange” marked a turning point in the Marvel Cinematic Universe because it introduced magic into this new universe.

Of all the A-listers that have driven the Marvel Cinematic Universe forward since 2008, none were as pivotal in its development as Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man. Kicking off his journey as Tony Stark in the franchise’s first movie, he would make ten total appearances in eleven years before meeting his end in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. Although his three solo…
With all data considered, expect Thor: Love and Thunder to drop its first teaser on Monday, February 28. Both Shang-Chi and Eternals debuted their first teasers on a Monday, which allowed both projects to dominate the news cycles for the rest of those weeks. Marvel will likely see February 28 as ideal not just because of where it…
