Destin Daniel Cretton, who directed Marvel’s Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings<\/strong>, is heading back behind the camera for the superhero studio.<\/p>\n

The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> is stating from sources that Cretton will be taking on the directing chores for their next upcoming Avengers<\/strong> film, The Avengers: The Kang Dynasty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This appears to be part of Cretton’s overall deal at Marvel which also seems him developing a Shang-Chi<\/strong> sequel and, with Community<\/em> and Brooklyn Nine-Nine<\/em> writer-producer Andrew Guest, a Disney+ series based on the character Wonder Man.<\/p>\n

The Kang Dynasty<\/strong> is one of two Avengers<\/strong> films that will close out Marvel’s Phase 6 series of films. It is set for release on May 2, 2025 with Avengers: Secret Wars<\/strong> following on November 7, 2025. No director has been announced for Secret Wars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The titular Kang is a time traveling tyrant, one of the main big bads in Marvel Comics for decades. The character was introduced into the MCU last year in the Disney+ series Loki and is being played by Jonathan Majors. Kang, or at least a version of him as the character’s history is chock full of multiple time travel variants, is next scheduled to appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania<\/strong>, due out in theaters on February 17, 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The director will be taking on one of the two capstones to the studio’s current multi-year\/film large story arc.<\/div>\n
