What followed wasn’t just a massive Comic-Con experience for Marvel fans, but what is perhaps the biggest single panel that has ever taken place by the studio, as MCU architect Kevin Fiege, presented to Marvel fans the next two years of the MCU.
The vent started with the surprising announcement that Black Panther: Wakanda Forever would actually be the last film in the MCU’s Phase Four, and it would make way for a completely restructured Phase Five, and a redefined Phase Six to follow.
