7 Marvel Teams The MCU Could Turn To After Avengers 4

7 Marvel Teams The MCU Could Turn To After Avengers 4

The brutal ending to Avengers: Infinity War quite literally broke the Marvel Cinematic Universe in half, and while all of us fans are still obsessing over how it'll all be put back together in Avengers 4, the higher-ups at Marvel Studios and Disney are already thinking about Phase 4. The next set of films is still a huge mystery, and in an earnings call, Disney CEO Bob Iger stated that they might table the Avengers franchise for awhile and replace it with something new. That's a pretty big bombshell just to drop right there in the boardroom, but it's certainly an intriguing clue as to what we can expect the MCU to look like in a few years.

The Avengers may be the No. 1 team of Marvel Comics, but there is no shortage of superhero teams -- and only half of them are Avengers spin-offs! Whether these teams are capable of being the new blockbuster franchise cornerstone of the MCU is up for debate, but Marvel has certainly exceeded expectations before. (Groot has made me cry twice now). Here are seven teams that could potentially replace the Avengers.

New AvengersThe most obvious one with probably the least imaginative name, but it's right on the money. After the Avengers had broken up in the comics after a tragedy, they later reformed with an all-star lineup that included popular characters that had never been on the team before, like Spider-Man and Wolverine. The book was a big attempt by Marvel to bring the Avengers to the forefront and it worked, spawning a huge line of relaunches and spin-offs. While a movie version of the team couldn't have the exact same lineup, it would need to capture the overall energy and spirit of the books: a fresh start for Earth's mightiest.

ThunderboltsWho says the heroes are the ones who need all the focus? Suicide Squad worked out well for Warner Bros., so maybe it's time for Marvel Studios to cash in with their own super villain team. The Thunderbolts are a group of villains who pretended to be heroes, only for some of them to actually reform. The team then became a program to rehabilitate imprisoned super-villains by sending them out on missions to do some good. The MCU actually has a lot of opportunities to do this at the moment. They've got a super prison in the form of the Raft, and Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross is in a perfect position set this team up. Additionally, Zemo, who founded the team in the comics, is notably still alive. True, the MCU is always light on villains, but there's no reason they can't just introduce a few new ones right off the bat. Or they can finally bring Abomination out of storage.

West Coast AvengersWhen in doubt, move to California. The West Coast Avengers is just as it sounds: Avengers but on the West Coast. The West Coast Avengers was the first spin-off comic of the main team and the original lineup featured Hawkeye, Iron Man (James Rhodes), Mockingbird, Tigra, and Wonder Man. They went on similar adventures as the main team, stopping a few familiar villains while tackling some new ones all their own. The team itself had more of B-team vibe that rose to meet the odds, which could make for an interesting concept for a movie, as a new group of heroes tries to fill the gap left behind by the original Avengers (who I'm assuming are all splitting after Avengers 4). If anything, a move to California might be worth it for the locale change.

Young AvengersEven if this one doesn't end up being the main Avengers franchise, I still have a really strong feeling that the Young Avengers are happening one way or another. The team was essentially a group of teenagers who each had some kind of relation to an Avenger -- be it a child or a secret child accidentally brought into existence with reality-altering powers -- and wanted to fill the gap left when the adult team disbanded. It was praised at the time for depicting modern teenage characters, which would make a great concept for a movie. Spider-Man: Homecoming showed how important it is to depict realistic and diverse teenagers, and Young Avengers could do the same, albeit in a less grounded way. The movie also presents the opportunity to introduce a bunch of new characters like Kate Bishop, Wiccan, and Hulkling, and I'd be lying if I said Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan) wouldn't be a perfect fit.

ChampionsThe Champions are, admittedly, very similar to the Young Avengers. They are a team of super-powered teenagers striking out on their own, but the difference is that they do it because they feel they can do a better job than the Avengers, who at the time were busy having a second civil war. The Champions are much more socially-minded and actively go out to make the world a better place, whether that means providing disaster relief or just setting a good example, which could make for an interesting subject for a movie. The team was made up of characters like Kamala Khan, Miles Morales, Nova, and the Vision's daughter, Viv Vision.

The UltimatesThis is the one I think has the strongest shot both for its name and how it ups the stakes. Originally a part of Marvel's initiative to introduce readers to comics with zero continuity, The Ultimates was a more modern (at the time) and edgier version of the Avengers. A lot of elements of this team and the Ultimate universe as a whole have already served as major inspiration for the early days of the MCU, so we wouldn't really be getting this exact team. Also, I hate the Ultimates, mostly because everyone is really unlikable. If there were to be an Ultimates movie, it would be better to base it off an entirely different team with the same name. These Ultimates consisted of the likes of Black Panther and Captain Marvel and they tackled massively dangerous threats on a cosmic scale that no one else could, making for a pretty good blockbuster. Their first mission was to cure Galactus of his ravenous hunger for planets, which is just a small taste of what they were up against.

*The Fantastic Four *This one is a bit of a long shot at the moment, but with the way the Disney-Fox deal is going, it looks likely that the Fantastic Four are heading to the MCU. If that's the case, they would make for a pretty sweet franchise, though maybe not on the scale of Avengers. The Fantastic Four has never quite been done justice on the big screen and it would be great to finally see Marvel take a swing at it. The group allows for family-focused adventures in heavy sci-fi settings, which you think would just print its own money. Again, this wouldn't happen for years, but it's something worth considering.

Julia Roberts Got Emotional Watching Pretty Woman On Broadway

Julia Roberts Got Emotional Watching Pretty Woman On Broadway

This year Julia Roberts celebrates an illustrious 30-year career as a Hollywood actress that started with her breakout role in 1988's Mystic Pizza. But Roberts became a household name when she starred in the Cinderella story Pretty Woman about a prostitute named Vivian who falls in love with businessman Edward, played by Richard Gere. When the classic rom-com had its Broadway debut over the summer, the throwback musical served as a poignant reminder for Roberts. In her words:

It made me miss Garry [Marshall] more than I could have. I didn't emotionally prepare myself because it seemed like such a separate odd thing and it really wasn't. I was overjoyed for the cast because I think they did a really lovely job but I did leave there with such a bittersweet feeling in my heart. I missed Garry so much.

Hand a symbolic tissue to Julia Roberts, because sounds like it was a bit of a rough watch for the actress. Garry Marshall was the director of Pretty Woman, and playbook co-writer for the Broadway version with the movie's original screenwriter J.F. Lawton. Marshall died in 2016 at 81 years old, soon after working with Roberts on his last directorial project Mother's Day. The pair also worked together on the rom-coms Runaway Bride and Valentine's Day. In her cover interview for Entertainment Weekly, Roberts recalled a time when Marshall surprised her about the Broadway project her was working on during a lunch at her house.

Garry Marshall left a momentous mark on comedy television and film that started a a writer in '60s with The Dick Van Dyke Show, continued in the '70s and '80s with The Odd Couple, Mork & Mindy, Laverne & Shirley and Happy Days. He then moved over to the director's chair producing hits like Overboard, Beaches and The Princess Diaries movies. Putting perhaps his iconic movie on Broadway was one of the last things he worked on, though he never saw it completely come together in New York City.

The Broadway version of Pretty Woman stars Samantha Barks as Vivian, who was Les Misrables' ponine, and Tony-winning actor Steve Kazee who was previously in the Broadway version of Once. The inclusion of Pretty Woman on Broadway continues a string of musical adaptations of popular romantic comedies such as Mean Girls, Legally Blonde and the upcoming Clueless musical which will arrive late November. Considering Pretty Woman is still one of the highest-grossing romantic comedies ever, it was only a matter of time before Julia Roberts would see another iteration of her most iconic role.

While Julia Roberts began her career as a rom-com actress, she recently said her days with the genre are likely over as she continues to take on dramatic roles. Before the end of 2018, Roberts is starring in an Amazon original series Homecoming from the creator of Mr. Robot and in family drama Ben is Back. It all started with her role in Pretty Woman that wouldn't have put her on the map without director Garry Marshall leading her through its production.

Will Ferrell Is The Latest Celebrity Heading To Netflix

Will Ferrell Is The Latest Celebrity Heading To Netflix

No matter how you slice it, Netflix has become a major player in the world of movies and television. What started as a DVD rental service has turned into the world's biggest streaming service, offering a wide selection of movies and TV shows from other studios, but a deep catalog of original content as well. And as Netflix continues to churn out more original content, it draws in more celebrity talent to lead these projects. The latest star to join these ranks is Will Ferrell, who will lead the movie Eurovision.

As one might expect from the title, Deadline reports that Eurovision will be about the Eurovision Song Contest, the international TV song competition that began in Switzerland in 1956. During that first year, only seven West European Nations participated, but now there are over 40 nations involved, including Australia as a guest participant. No specific plot details for this Eurovision movie have been revealed yet, but in addition to starring and producing alongside Jessica Elbaum from Gary Sanchez Productions, Will Ferrell is writing the comedy with Andrew Steele. Adam McKay, a longtime collaborator of Ferrell's, will executive produce.

While the Eurovision Song Contest isn't as big of a deal in the United States, its popularity internationally could mean that this will be one of the more popular Netflix movies around the globe. While Netflix's movies have earned nearly as much positive reception overall as the platform's TV shows, it has become a haven for cinematic tales that might not have had much success in a traditional theatrical setting. Comedically speaking, actors like Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Kevin James and Rob Schneider have turned to Netflix in recent years for creative endeavors. As for Will Ferrell, he previously sang in Step Brothers and episodes of Saturday Night Live, so whatever Eurovision ends up being specifically about (I'm guessing Ferrell is playing the comical underdog who tries to win the competition even though no one believes he can), at least we won't have to worry about him not having the vocal chops.

In the meantime, 2018 has a few offerings for the Will Ferrell fans out there, coming off the heels of The House and Daddy's Home 2 last year. The most notable is Holmes And Watson, where he will play famed Arthur Conan Doyle creation Sherlock Holmes opposite his Step Brothers co-star John C. Reilly, who's playing Dr. John Watson. Ferrell also has the comedy-drama Zeroville coming up, which doesn't have a set release date yet. He also recently reprised Cord alongside Molly Shannon's Tish for HBO's coverage of the Royal Wedding.

Stay tuned to CinemaBlend for all the latest movie news, whether they're screening in theaters or streaming on Netflix. If you're interested in what the streaming service has coming up movie-wise, look through our 2018 Netflix premiere guide.

Should Marvel Have Scheduled Avengers 4 Closer To The Release Of Avengers: Infinity War?

Should Marvel Have Scheduled Avengers 4 Closer To The Release Of Avengers: Infinity War?

Warning: spoilers for Avengers: Infinity War are in play. If you haven't seen the film yet, and want to remain unspoiled, please hop out of this article and check out one of our non-Marvel articles!

By time the credits were rolling and Avengers: Infinity War started to allow the audience to breathe again, there was one question that a lot of people asked when all was said and done: "Is that how Marvel is really going to end it?" Even with the foreknowledge that the film was always meant to be the first part of a two-part arc, pockets of the film's audience still can't believe that they would leave such a cliffhanger unresolved. It's that reaction that got me to thinking about whether or not scheduling the two Avengers films a whole year apart was really a good idea. Now, both sides have merits, but ultimately there's one camp I clearly fall into. For now though, let's play devil's advocate and look at both cases.

The Case For A Months-Long GapWhen you've got a pair of sequels that are produced back to back, telling a story wound so tightly that the second film finishes the other's sentences, it's often been the tradition to only schedule those films a few months apart. Seeing as The Lord of the Rings were all fully produced adaptations of a three novel setup, I'm not counting it in this situation. But if you look at The Matrix Reloaded / The Matrix Revolutions and Back To The Future Part II and III, you see the sort of film that Avengers: Infinity War seems to be taking after.

As the story of Avengers: Infinity War ends on a dark note, with half of the Marvel Cinematic Universe zapped out of existence, and the villain apparently satisfied with his work, Avengers 4 would have been at an advantage if it was scheduled for release in the fall or winter of this year's box office calendar. Not only would that sort of strategy help crush the box office records of 2018, it would also allow the audience gratification a little earlier, as viewers would get to see the story wrapped up in a more timely manner. Not to mention, it'd solve that whole problem surrounding how the hell Sony is going to advertise Spider-Man: Homecoming 2, However, there are also two good reasons for Marvel Studios to put space in-between their Avengers films.

The Case For The Gap YearIf Avengers: Infinity War were a more traditional two-part arc, it would make infinitely more sense to have both parts play out closer together, with only a span of months between them. However, this is the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which means that this story isn't going to just span across the two Avengers films bookending each other. With two more Marvel Studios movies, Ant-Man and The Wasp and Captain Marvel, making their way to theaters in-between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4, the events of those films are inevitably going to be affected by the events we've just seen unfold on the screen this weekend, and in one case it's more readily apparent.

The moment the post-credits scene of Avengers: Infinity War showed us that Nick Fury was contacting Carol Danvers for her origin story close-up, the threads started to sew the next year of Marvel Studios films together all the more closer. With Captain Marvel, Ant-Man, and The Wasp all absent from the proceedings of the latest Avengers movie, they're more than likely going to be around for Avengers 4, filling the gaps of the heroes that were vaporized in Thanos's usage of the Infinity Gauntlet.

Which Works BetterAgain, if Avengers: Infinity War wasn't being used as a part era closer / part platform for future heroes to launch off of, it'd make more sense to schedule the films closer together. With two more films being affected by, and ultimately playing into, the fate of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it makes more sense to give the films space to play out the ultimate story being told. So in this scenario, pushing the resolution to the larger cliffhanger makes perfect sense in terms of the storytelling. Even better is the fact that Marvel Studios has some really solid business reasons to engage in this sort of long game, as well.

Not only will Avengers 4's May 4, 2019 release date help it capitalize on the same sort of massive box-office opportunity that Avengers: Infinity War has enjoyed, but it'll also undoubtedly boost the prospects for both Ant-Man and The Wasp and Captain Marvel's grosses to excel in similar fashion. Both films will hold clues and plot points to fulfill the promises Infinity War has made, and everyone will be hungry for answers in the year in-between, so they'll be must sees for all.

At this moment, the delay makes a lot of sense; but we'll only really know next year when Avengers 4 takes the stage on May 4, 2019. But in the meantime, we'll have Ant-Man and The Wasp to enjoy on July 6th, with Captain Marvel debuting in theaters on March 8th, 2019.
