‘Avengers: Doomsday' delayed to December 2026, set to clash With ‘Dune: Messiah' in ‘Dunesday' cinematic event
Marvel fans will have to wait a bit longer for the next epic showdown. Disney has officially pushed Avengers: Doomsday to December 18, 2026, delaying it by seven months from its original May release. The move also shifts Avengers: Secret Wars to December 17, 2027. The delay puts Doomsday in direct box-office collision with Dune: Messiah, the third and final installment of Denis Villeneuve's Dune saga. The internet, unsurprisingly, already has a name for the upcoming double blockbuster weekend: Dunesday. While Marvel's usual May slot is now empty, Disney seems to be reshuffling its entire superhero slate. Several 'Untitled Marvel' placeholders have vanished or been rebranded as 'Untitled Disney,' indicating a tightening of release strategy. Between Fantastic 4: First Steps in July 2025 and Spider-Man: Brand New Day a full year later, the MCU will experience its longest feature film drought since the pandemic. The change also follows recent comments by Disney CEO Bob Iger, who admitted Marvel had 'lost a little focus by making too much.' The revised approach aims to emphasise fewer, higher-quality tentpoles, which is a likely reason behind the strategic delays. Still, Avengers: Doomsday remains a major event film. Robert Downey Jr. returns, but this time as Doctor Doom, joined by teams from Thunderbolts and Fantastic 4, and even X-Men legends like Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Production has already begun ramping up. Doomsday and Messiah are now set to headline a packed December 2026, including Ice Age 6, Shrek 5, and Jumanji 4

The Avengers won't assemble yet as Doomsday and Secret Wars are delayed
'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars' have both been delayed. Disney has confirmed the hotly-anticipated Marvel Studios movies have been pushed back, with 'Doomsday' set to hit the big screen on December 18th, 2026. The film - which will feature Pedro Pascal, Chris Hemsworth, Vanessa Kirby, Letitia Wright and Paul Rudd - was initially due to be out in theatres on May 1st, 2026. As a result of Doomsday's delay, 'Secret Wars' has also been pushed back. The motion picture will be released on December 17th, 2027, after it was originally scheduled for May 7th, 2027. What's more, Disney has removed several Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies from its schedule. An 'Untitled Marvel' film was on the calendar for February 13th, 2026, but this has been taken off, while it was also expected that 'Untitled Marvel' movies would drop on November 6th, 2026, and November 5th, 2027, but both have been changed to 'Untitled Disney' motion pictures. As a result, 'Doomsday' and 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' are the only two Marvel movies now in the schedule for next year. Earlier this month, Alan Cumming appeared to reveal he will be fighting Pascal in 'Avengers: Doomsday'. The 60-year-old actor is set to reprise his 'X2: X-Men United' mutant Nightcrawler in the upcoming MCU blockbuster, and the star hinted he may be coming to blows with Pascal's Mr. Fantastic in 'Avengers: Doomsday'. During a video interview with Buzzfeed UK, Cumming said: 'I was learning stunts yesterday for some fight scene and I just think, I'm 60 years old. 23 years ago, I played that superhero. 'I was kind of old for a superhero even then. And now I'm back doing it. And that, to me, is hilarious. 'I'm sort of learning these fights and I'm like, 'What? Who am I fighting with?' And they said, 'You're hitting Pedro Pascal against the head,' or something.' Cumming recently admitted he was "amazed and excited" to be returning as Nightcrawler for 'Avengers: Doomsday', which is currently filming in London. Speaking with fellow 'X-Men' star Olivia Munn for Collider, Cumming said: 'Isn't it nuts? I'm excited and amazed. It's been 23 years since I was a superhero.'

Marvel's"Avengers: Doomsday" and "Avengers: Secret Wars" Delayed
Yara Sameh Disney has delayed the release of Marvel Studios' upcoming team-up features 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars.' 'Doomsday' is now set to debut on December 18, 2026, moving about seven months off of its originally slated date of May 1, 2026. To match, the follow-up 'Avengers: Secret Wars' is moving its release to December 17, 2027, after previously being set for May 7, 2027. Disney announced both 'Avengers' delays Thursday afternoon, alongside a sweeping reorganization of its coming theatrical slate. Notably, the new calendar saw the studio remove several unannounced Marvel titles off of its calendar. The date of February 13, 2026, previously slotted for an 'Untitled Marvel' project, has been removed from the schedule. Meanwhile, the dates of Novemberv 6, 2026 and November 5, 2027 — also both previously set for 'Untitled Marvel' features — have been amended to simply 'Untitled Disney' films. With those changes, 'Avengers: Doomsday' and Sony's 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' are now the only Marvel Cinematic Universe entries slated to hit theaters in 2026. Moreover, the new pre-holiday December frame for both 'Avengers' installments is the same one that 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' launched on in 2021, which became one of the franchise's highest-grossing installments at $1.9 billion worldwide. Additionally, there is now no theatrical Marvel feature slated to release between 'The Fantastic 4: First Steps' on July 25 and the fourth Tom Holland 'Spider-Man' installment on July 31, 2026 — more than a year later. It'll be the MCU's biggest gap between feature films since the COVID era gap between 2019's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' and 2021's 'Black Widow.' Disney has kept a few flags planted on 2028 dates for 'Untitled Marvel' features: February 18, May 5 and November 10. Marvel Studios has also previously announced titles like 'Armor Wars' and 'Blade,' though neither film project currently has an official release date. The notable decrease in theatrical Marvel features on the immediate horizon aligns with Disney CEO Bob Iger's strategy for the company's superhero features. During an investor call, Iger shared that Marvel Studios had 'lost a little focus by making too much' between its tentpoles and various Disney+ series. He continued, 'By consolidating a bit and having Marvel focus much more on their films, we believe that will result in better quality.' 'Doomsday' and 'Secret Wars' are both massive productions for Marvel Studios, featuring a sprawling cast that includes the MCU return of Robert Downey Jr. — this time playing the villainous Doctor Doom — as well as superhero teams from the 'Thunderbolts*' and 'Fantastic 4: First Steps' movies, and even reprisals from the 'X-Men' franchise, like Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. 'Doomsday' production has ramped up in recent weeks, with Downey sharing a photograph of himself and other cast members rolling out to see 'Thunderbolts*' to support their Marvel peers. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

Avengers: Doomsday And Secret Wars Postponed. New Release Dates Out
New Delhi: Fans of Marvel's Avengers franchise will have to wait a little longer for the upcoming team-up films. Marvel Studios has delayed the releases of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. Avengers: Doomsday is now scheduled to release on December 18, 2026, moving from its original date of May 1, 2026 - a delay of about seven months. To stay aligned with the updated schedule, Avengers: Secret Wars has also been pushed back and will now release on December 17, 2027, instead of its previously announced date of May 7, 2027. Disney confirmed both delays on Thursday afternoon as part of a larger reshuffle of its upcoming theatrical release calendar. The new schedule also includes the removal of several unannounced Marvel titles. A film previously slated for February 13, 2026, labelled as Untitled Marvel, has been taken off the calendar. Two other dates - November 6, 2026, and November 5, 2027 - once set for untitled Marvel features, are now listed as Untitled Disney films. With these changes, Avengers: Doomsday and Sony's Spider-Man: Brand New Day are now the only confirmed Marvel Cinematic Universe releases for 2026. Additionally, there will be no theatrical Marvel release between The Fantastic 4: First Steps, scheduled for July 25, 2025, and the fourth installment of Tom Holland's Spider-Man, set for July 31, 2026 - a gap of over a year. Doomsday and Secret Wars are major productions for Marvel Studios and are among the most anticipated projects in the franchise. The films are expected to feature the return of Robert Downey Jr, not as Iron Man, but in the role of Doctor Doom. They will also bring together characters from various Marvel teams, including the Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four, and even members of the X-Men universe, such as Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Production on Doomsday has reportedly ramped up in recent weeks. Downey recently shared a photo of himself with fellow cast members as they went to watch Thunderbolts in support of their Marvel colleagues.
