'Avengers: Doomsday' And 'Avengers: Secret Wars' Release Dates Postponed

Los Angeles, May 23 - The new Avengers movies will take more than the earlier scheduled time as Disney has postponed the release dates of Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret War by nearly 7 months each.

Doomsday, which was supposed to be released on May 1st, 2026, will now debut in worldwide theatres on December 18, 2026. On the other hand, Secret Wars has been pushed back to December 17, 2027, from its originally planned May 7, 2027, launch.



Notably, the new release calendar saw Disney remove several unannounced Marvel titles from its calendar. The date of Feb. 13, 2026, previously slotted for an Untitled Marvel project, has been removed from the schedule. Meanwhile, the dates of Nov. 6, 2026 and Nov. 5, 2027 — both previously set for Untitled Marvel features — have been amended to simply Untitled Disney films.

After the changes, Avengers: Doomsday and Sony's Spider-Man: Brand New Day are now the only Marvel Cinematic Universe entries slated to hit theatres in 2026. Brand New Day is scheduled for a July 31, 2026, release, which was 3 months after the original date of Doomsday.

Doomsday and Secret Wars are both massive productions for Marvel Studios and will feature a huge cast, including the return of Robert Downey Jr., this time playing the villainous Doctor Doom. As per reports, Ghost Rider will also appear in the forthcoming Avengers title.
