Avengers: Secret Wars Release Delay
Today marks the expected release date for Avengers: Secret Wars, but instead, fans are waiting more than two years as the film's schedule has shifted.
Original Marvel Plans Revealed in 2022
At San Diego Comic-Con 2022, Marvel Studios announced an ambitious slate of films. Highlights included footage from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige revealed plans for two new Avengers movies set for 2025: Avengers: The Kang Dynasty in May and the highly anticipated Avengers: Secret Wars in November.

Current Release Update
Though November 7, 2025, was initially set as the premiere date for Secret Wars, the film is now scheduled for December 17, 2027. This significant delay is primarily due to Marvel ending its relationship with Jonathan Majors, who portrayed Kang the Conqueror, forcing a major revision of the storyline.
Impact on Marvel's Storyline
- Severance with actor Jonathan Majors drastically changed the direction of the Kang-centric plot.
- Marvel had to rethink the current Avengers narrative to accommodate these changes.
- The delay separates the film's anticipated release from the originally planned timeline set in 2022.
Looking Ahead
Despite setbacks, Marvel continues to build excitement for the Avengers franchise, promising fresh directions and epic storytelling in future releases.
“The biggest was that Marvel severed ties with Kang himself, played by Jonathan Majors. That forced a total shift in where that current storyline was going.”
Summary: Although originally planned for 2025, Avengers: Secret Wars has been delayed to 2027 due to casting changes, requiring Marvel to reshape its storyline and release schedule.
