The Marvel Cinematic Universe has come a long way in ten years, and it seems they are only scratching the surface.
During a special screening of Black Panther, Erick Weber had the chance to interview Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and ask him some questions. In a tweet, Weber dropped some juicy details:
“OK, here we go, 3 quick questions, answers directly from Kevin Feige’s mouth. 1) Avengers 4 trailer ‘before the end of the year’ 2) Namor COULD make an appearance, still deciding IF & when 3) Guardians 3 status ‘on hold.'”
OK, here we go, 3 quick questions, answers direct from Kevin Feige’s mouth
1) AVENGERS 4 trailer “before the end of the year”

We now have confirmation that the untitled Avengers 4 trailer will debut before the end of this year. So fans could be waiting a while longer.
The second tidbit is quite an exciting bit of news, considering Namor, better known to comic fans as the Sub Mariner, is a character fans have wanted to see in live action for a while. Universal Pictures owns the film distribution rights to the character, which explains his absence. Namor has tangled with the Fantastic Four, the Black Panther, and the Avengers during his career.
Last but not least, the Marvel Studios boss revealed what most fans already assumed. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is currently on hold after the controversial firing of director James Gunn.
Directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, Avengers: Infinity War stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Don Cheadle, Tom Holland, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Tom Hiddleston, Idris Elba, Danai Gurira, Peter Dinklage, Benedict Wong, Pom Klementieff, Karen Gillan, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Gwyneth Paltrow, Benicio del Toro, Josh Brolin, and Chris Pratt.
As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
Avengers: Infinity War is now on Digital and Blu-ray, while the Untitled Avengers 4 hits theaters on May 3rd, 2019.
