Round-up of the leaks so far about the plots of the upcoming movies.

Doctor Strange

>The Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) is the leader of a group of sorcerers who protect the world from otherworldly threats. Kaecilius (Mads Mikkelsen) is one of its members, but he believes that they should allow the otherworldly beings to cross into our dimension and creates his own sect to open a portal between worlds.

>On present day, Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) is an arrogant physician who gets into a car accident and has his hands debilitated, preventing him from performing surgeries. He runs into one of the Ancient One's disciples, Baron Karl Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor), and begins studying about mysticism. He eventually locates the Ancient One's temple in the Hymalayans and convinces her to teach him about the mystic arts.

>Strange becomes sorcerer supreme, aided by Mordo and Wong (Benedict Wong), another of the Ancient One's followers. When Kaecilius and his cult emerge to open the portal and unleash elder beings into the Universe, Strange must stop them.

>The Eye of Agamotto is one of the Infinity Stones, the Time Gem, and journeying through time is a key-component of Kaecilius' plan. In the final battle, Strange and Kaecilius battle across multiple time periods from the 1700's onwards.

>Peter ends up fighting Adrian Toomes (Michael Keaton), a military engineer who creates a biomechanical flight suit using Chitauri technology recovered from the Battle of New York, which allows soldiers to interface with the suits. The government shuts down his experiments and seizes the technology, leading Toomes to swear revenge.

Thor: Ragnarok

>Thor (Chris Hemsworth) finds out that Loki (Tom Hiddleston) has usurped the throne of Asgard and has joined forces with Hela (Cate Blanchett), the queen of the underworld, to unleash the Ragnarok upon the Nine Realms. He attempts to stop them, but is defeated by Loki's champion, Skurge (Karl Urban), the Mjolnir is destroyed, and Thor is exiled to a faraway planet ruled by the Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum), where his head is shaven, and he is enslaved and forced to become a gladiator.

>There, Thor runs into the Hulk, who has been stranded on the planet by Loki in retaliation for Hulk humilliating him during the Battle of New York. Hulk hasn't reverted to his human form in months, and as a result his mind and Bruce Banner's (Mark Ruffalo) are merging, affording the Hulk more intelligence. Meanwhile, Asgard's gatekeeper Heimdall (Idris Elba) is killed by Loki upon learning of his deception.

>Thor and Hulk join forces to stop Loki and Hela and escape from the Grandmaster, embarking on a journey across the Nine Realms to retrieve the "ultimate weapon" capable to stopping Loki and Hela. They are aided by Thor's old friend, the Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), and Odin (Anthony Hopkins), who has had his powers stolen by Loki and been exiled to Earth, where he lives as a vagrant.

>In the end, Thor rallies the fallen warriors of Valhalla, Heimdall among them, to confront Hela and her army of the undead, and Skurge realizes Loki has manipulated him under Odin's guise and sacrifices himself to hold off the Armies of Hel, bidding Thor enough time to defeat Hela and Loki.

When's Avengers 3?

Will they finally battle Thanos?

Avengers: Infinity War

>In PART 1, Thanos (Josh Brolin) attacks Earth to steal the remaining Infinity Stones needed to create the Infinity Gauntlet, a weapon with which he can destroy all of creation. Captain America (Chris Evans) and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), still fractured over the events in CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR, lead their respective teams in separated attempts to stop Thanos, but after Thanos deliver a crushing blow by killing the Vision (Paul Bettany), their most powerful member, they realize they need to put their differences aside to save the Universe.

>In PART 2, the Avengers led by Captain America and Iron Man join forces with the Guardians of the Galaxy to stop Thanos in Space, and rally numerous other heroes including Winter Soldier, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel and Spider-Man for the battle.

>Thanos will have an army of followers to do his bidding, and Loki will act as his loyal advisor while orchestrating events to benefit his own agenda.

>Both movies will be generally self-contained and will be retitled so they are presented as standalone features.

>Over 60 characters will be featured throughout the two movies, between heroes, villains and supporting characters.

So this is how they'll introduce people to the Inhumans then...

So we'll see shades of Planet Hulk in this movie.

We see that on agents of shield

It's not canon.

>and rally numerous other heroes including Winter Soldier, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel and Spider-Man for the battle.

So the netflix characters won't show up then?

Marvel Studios isn't doing the Inhumans anymore. It was a pet project for Ike Perlmutter, whom Kevin Feige had a notoriously bitter falling-out with and is now ousted from the movie department.

Will capeshit be done once these movies are finished?

After Avengers 3 i think Marvel will have a hard time keeping people interested.

Thanos is the final boss of this whole thing.

Yeah, but how many people that go to see the MCU flicks watch AoS? Is the Inhumans movie even happening?

>Over 60 characters will be featured throughout the two movies, between heroes, villains and supporting characters.
hopefully they will.

>Is the Inhumans movie even happening?
All we know is that it's been "delayed". Marvel Studios has probably thrown any idea of doing an Inhumans movie in the trash for now.

Right now they don't really have any villains that are capable of being hyped for several years like Thanos. I'm assuming that they're desperately trying to get the rights to Fant4stic back, if only for their villains.

clearly not because they have 3 untitled movies set after Avegers 3

oh a cold war villain angry at the father of the protagonist? sounds like iron man 2

wasnt fox going to finally allow a crossover with the x-franchise

rumored to be an FF movie after avengers 3 to set off phase 4

yeah well, their last hurrah is probably going to be spider-man x guardians of the galaxy x ant man

afaik there has been discussion of a crossover.

I agree. Where do you go after Thanos with his completed Infinity Gauntlet? Dark Phoenix Force?

kang

If they get the Fantastic Four rights back, they have Doctor Doom, Kang and Galactus at their disposal. All of them can carry entire phases.

If not, they can go for Norman Osborn masterminding the Dark Reign and/or the Skrull secret invasion. Korvac could work, too.

Thats a meme. The studios might not like each other and the movie universe will probably never acknowledge it outside of Daisy being in the inhumans movie but they both follow the same canon.

Marvel studios will have at least Daredevil in Infinity war though

>Tessa Thompson
>Valkyrie

Who could be behind such a casting decision!

Why do they keep forcing Loki

>forcing Loki
Nigga hes more popular than Thor

jesus christ, tell me why she can't play an alien demi-god in this pretend world?

I hope Hulk makes this Thor movie less forgettable than the last one.

>Norse mithology
>Created by Scandinavians and Anglos
>Represented by a black woman
I have no problems, but you know where you are.

>vision most powerful member

Didn't he get his shit rocked by scarlet witch?

Sure it is. It happened, therefore it counts. If you want to ignore that, that's fine. If you want to include it, that's fine too.

The idea of "canon" is bullshit. Once a work is finished and released to the public it's up to the individual to choose what bits they want to keep and which to throw out.

Vision is still the strongest Avenger in sheer power, SW is just a hard counter to him.

>Is the Inhumans movie even happening?

Inhumans was the pet project of Ike Perlmutter, Marvel Comics CEO, who wanted to use the movie to boost sales of the comic, which has been struggling for years despite Marvel trying to make it the next big thing. Feige hated the idea and knew it wouldn't work. As soon as Marvel Studios became its own company with Feige as President, Inhumans was thrown into the trash though it still hasn't been officially canceled.

casting choices for marvel?
