MCU Slate 2026–2027: Doomsday, Brand New Day, Secret Wars — What to Watch For

A Celluloid guide to the MCU calendar through Secret Wars — Spider-Man: Brand New Day (July 31, 2026), Avengers: Doomsday (Dec 18, 2026), Fantastic Four and Thunderbolts scores, and what we know about 2027.

The Multiverse Saga is no longer a rumor calendar — it is a release map. Celluloid scores the films that already screened and tracks trailers, casts, and dates for the ones that have not. Here’s the 2026–27 MCU picture as of late July 2026.

What MCU movies are left in 2026?

Two tentpoles dominate. Spider-Man: Brand New Day opens July 31, 2026 — the year’s clearest Sony/Marvel event after a summer already owned by Nolan’s Odyssey. Avengers: Doomsday follows on December 18, 2026, with Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom and Russo brothers direction. Neither has a Celluloid Score until critic embargos lift; both have trailers on our Trailers hub.

Which recent MCU films already have scores?

Fantastic Four and Thunderbolts are the scored handoff.* The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Thunderbolts (plus Captain America: Brave New World) sit in the catalog with five-source composites and Disney+ regional watch notes. Compare them head-to-head at /compare/thunderbolts-2025/vs/the-fantastic-four-first-steps-2025/.

When is Avengers: Secret Wars?

December 17, 2027 on Celluloid’s coming-soon slate — the Russo follow-up positioned as the Multiverse Saga’s endgame after Doomsday. Expect cast overlap with Fantastic Four and Avengers ensembles; score and full review publish only after screening. Track Avengers: Secret Wars for date and poster updates.

Will Doomsday or Spider-Man win 2026 box office?

Calendar math favors Spider-Man for 2026 gross: five months of earning versus two mid-December weeks for Doomsday. Lifetime totals into 2027 may flip. For a fuller take, see our Doomsday trailer & presales piece and the Doomsday vs Brand New Day compare page.
