Hello, and welcome to The State Of The Comic Book Movie Union Series: 2019 Edition: Part 5 of 6, which is on the Marvel Cinematic Universe films. There are three Sony Marvel universe projects that are coming out in 2019 that we’ll talk about today; Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame, and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Anyways, without further ado, let’s get to it.
First up, we have Captain Marvel. We’ve come a long way since the first edition of the slate of Phase Three movies we were getting from the MCU. It’s been about 4 years since that first edition came out, and boy has those been wild for Captain Marvel. Ever since the movie was announced, rumors have swirled about the project, from Kathryn Bigelow directing, to someone as famous as Charlize Theron or Jennifer Lawerence, or even the project being shuttered and going the way of the Inhumans movie. Luckily, though, the film is well on it’s way to being the next big hit for Marvel. The film showcases the main cast of Brie Larson, Jude Law, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, and Glenn Close, the phenomenal director duo of Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, and a release date of March 8th, 2019.
Second, we have Avengers: Endgame. Never before has one movie meant so much to one franchise. The second part to Avengers: Infinity War and the fourth Avengers movie as a whole, Avengers: Endgame is the conclusion to a 22-movie-long story arc that was begun all the way back in 2008 with Iron Man. The movie is set to return the main cast of Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chadwick Boseman, Tom Holland, Paul Bettany, Sebastion Stan, Elizabeth Olsen, Jeremy Renner, Brie Larson, Paul Rudd, and Josh Brolin, as well as directors Joe and Anthony Russo, and is expected to release on April 26th, 2019.
Third and finally, we have Spider-Man: Far From Home. Not since Iron Man and Iron Man 2 back during Phase One has a character had two movies based primarily around them in the same Phase, or at least, not until Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home. So far, Tom Holland’s portrayal of the Web-Slinging Wunderkind has garnered plenty of praise from fans, so it makes sense that Marvel and Sony would want to put out a sequel as soon as possible. The movie is set to return the main cast of Tom Holland, Marisa Tomei, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, and will add Jake Gyllenhaal the villain, Mysterio. The film will also bring back Jon Watts as the director and is planned to release on July 5th, 2019.
