Disney went to update the calendar of its movies that will be released in the coming years. The giant company has made updates on the release date of many highly anticipated productions, including Avatar and Marvel movies.
Disney’s updated calendar shows that the films of James Cameron’s blockbuster Avatar franchise have been delayed. On the other hand, it is seen that changes have been made in productions such as Deadpool 3 and new Avengers movies.
All 3 Avatar movies delayed: Avatar 3 will be released in 2025, the last Avatar movie will be released in 2031
One of the most notable parts of the calendar update was the new movies of the Avatar series. Disney has delayed Avatar 3, which was normally expected to be released in December 2024, to December 19, 2025, pushing it forward one year. Let’s add that the shooting of this movie has been completed.
On the other hand, Avatar 4 and Avatar 5, which will be the other films of the series, were also delayed. Avatar 4 has been delayed from 2026 to December 21, 2029, and Avatar 5 has been delayed from 2028 to December 2031. In other words, it was pushed forward three years in both films. The new dates reveal that the final Avatar movie will debut exactly 22 years after the original movie.
Deadpool 3 brought forward
Deadpool’s new movie, Deadpool 3, was among those whose vision date changed. Disney has pushed forward the release date of the movie that will bring Hugh Jackman back as Wolverine. Accordingly, the movie will be released on May 3, 2024. The previous date was November 8, 2024.
New Avengers movies The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars delayed for a year
Another change of Disney was in perhaps the two most anticipated films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Avengers: Kang Dynasty has been moved from May 2, 2025 to May 1, 2026. The Secret Wars movie, on the other hand, was postponed once again from May 1, 2026 to May 7, 2027. This decision comes after Jonathan Majors, who plays Kang, was accused of violence against the woman.
Marvel movies like Captain America, Blade, and the Fantastic Four also have changes
The new Captain America movie Brave New World was also affected by the date update. The movie’s release date has been moved from May 3, 2024 to July 26, 2024. On the other hand, Blade has been delayed to February 14, 2025, Thunderbolts to December 20, 2024, and Fantastic Four to May 2, 2025.
Two new Star Wars movies coming in 2026
Finally, a prominent detail in Disney’s calendar update was related to Star Wars. The company postponed a Star Wars movie with a certain future but no name from December 19 to May 22, 2026.
On the other hand, a brand new Star Wars movie that didn’t exist before was also added to the calendar. This movie, which has no details yet, will be released on December 17, 2027. This information reveals that 2026 will be a holiday for Star Wars fans.
