Marvel surprised fans during its San Diego Comic-Con panel this weekend, when it announced that two Avengers movies would be coming out in 2025. Now, studio president Kev🌳in Feige has confirmed that Anthony and Joe Russo won't ♛be directing either of them.
"[They are] not connected to it," Feige told Deadline when the publication asked whether the filmmaking siblings, who previously helmed 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Infinity War and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Endgame, are attached. "They have been very direct about that. We love them. They love us. We want to👍 find something to do together, just n🉐ot this."
Released as part of Phase 6, the new Avengers flicks are set to be subtitled The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars, respectively – so you can expect Jonathan Majors, who was introduced as a version of Kang the Conqueror in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus series Loki, to play a major role in both.

Those following the MCU have assumed the Russo Brothers would be involved in a Secret Wars adaptation for some time, given Joe's comments to way back in July 2020. At the time, he said: "You know, I read that when I was 10 or 11, and it was the scale of getting all of the heroes together. It was one of the first major books to do that – that was real☂ly event-storytelling to me at its finest. And what happens when you put all of those personalities together. I also like the idea of villains having to team up with heroes. Anth and I like complicated relationships between heroes and villains, we like villains who believe they're heroes in their own stories, so it's all sort of built into this notion of Secret Wars . To execute something on the scale of Infinity War was directly related to the dream of Secret Wars, which is even larger in scale."
"We're in a unique position in our career where we can pick and choose what it is we want to do," 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Joe Russo told Total Film more recently, while promoting Netflix's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Gray Man. "Fil✨m is a business and when you mak♓e people money, you can use the cachet and the brand value that you get out of that to make more personal projects.
"We're trying to open the door for other young interesting filmmakers like the Daniels," he continued, noting how the duo produced 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Everything Everywhere All at Once. "🧸We're trying to use the sort of business moves that Anthony and I can make to help younger filmmakers get through the system with really interesting and personal material."
That's not to say they aren't working on their own stuff, also. In terms of directing, the pair have lined up new spy series Citadel and Netflix movie The E꧂lectric State, starring Chris Pratt and Stranger Thi💟ngs' Millie Bobby Brown.
