Could Marvel Studios Be Planning a Secret Third Avengers Movie For Summer 2027?
Marvel Studios has a mystery movie locked in for July 2027, and now there’s growing speculation that it could actually be a third, unannounced Avengers film slotted between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
The idea comes from a new piece on Murphy’s Multiverse, where the site suggests that Marvel might be holding back a surprise Avengers project.
Some scoopers have hinted the report could be on the right track, while the article’s author Charles Murphy added fuel to the fire on X. He explained:
"Had to put this together today after a conversation with one of the best sources I've ever had...I'll stress this was a conversation, not info sharing but it gave me plenty to think about."
The article points out:
"The hiring of new writers or directors has not been made public, and no new production companies that aren’t already believed to be accounted for have been made. That would mean that the film would be something that’s been in development for a few years, and that would, of course, bring to mind Blade."
Still, the piece leans heavily toward this mystery movie being tied to Marvel’s biggest team. It speculates:
"Whether it’s Avengers: Time Runs Out, Avengers: Battleworld, Avengers: Everything Dies or Avengers: Illuminati (an Illuminati project was 100% in development at the studio at one point in time), a bridge spanning Doomsday and Secret Wars is a fascinating and cash-rich opportunity for Marvel."
This wouldn’t be without precedent. Marvel usually spends three to four months shooting its blockbusters, but Avengers: Doomsday has already been in production for five months with no end in sight. It also won’t be filmed back-to-back with Secret Wars, which leaves space in the schedule for another huge crossover.
The popular theory is that Doomsday will end with the creation of Battleworld, the massive patchwork planet controlled by Doctor Doom. Some talk even suggests it could be made from fragments of The Void.
If that’s where things are heading, then it would make a lot of sense for Marvel to drop another Avengers movie set in Battleworld rather than something like Blade. It would give more Multiverse Saga characters their due while cranking up the stakes before the grand finale in Secret Wars.
There’s no official word yet, but if Marvel really is working on a secret Avengers movie in 2027, it could be one of the studio’s most surprising plays yet.
