The Russo Bros. Describe AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY and AVENGERS: SECRET WARS as "A Beginning Story"

Fans are feeling pretty good about the near future of the MCU as Joe and Anthony Russo, aka The Russo Brothers, are gearing up to give us a couple of epic stories in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. The Russos previously wrapped up the Infinity Saga in the films Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, and Doomsday and Secret Wars also seemed like they’d be a fitting end to our current Multiverse Saga. But as it turns out, these stories are actually not an end at all.In a recent interview, Joe Russo explained what brought him and Anthony back to the MCU. "What's compelling about these two new Avengers movies is they're a beginning. It's a new beginning. We told an ending story, now we're going to tell a beginning story."So it sounds like the rumors about Avengers: Secret Wars being a soft reboot to the MCU and creating a new Sacred Timeline for the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men, is true. As for what their Marvel Studios future looks like beyond that, Joe said, "Who knows where we'll go from there? Maybe it will be another five years. I think we just needed that time and perspective to figure out where it needed to go next and the only thing that brought us back was the right story."I’m really looking forward to seeing what these filmmakers have in store, and I have a lot of hope and excitement for the path these films will set us on. Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on May 1, 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive on May 7, 2027. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Omelete (@omelete)
