Marvel Studios is calling its shots further in advance than usual: the studio that brought you The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy has just announced plans for five new movies between now and 2019.
Following the already announced release dates for The Avengers: Age of Ultron (May 1, 2015), Ant-Man (July 17, 2015) and Captain America 3 (May 6, 2016), Marvel Studios will release movies on July 28, 2017, November 3, 2017, July 6, 2018, November 2, 2018 and May 3, 2019.

Marvel Studios hasn’t announced any of the titles yet – although we’d be surprised if they don’t announce at least a few of them at Comic-Con 2014 next week – but Doctor Strange already has a director and it stands to reason that Avengers 3 will arrive on one of the latter release dates. Other likely titles include Thor 3, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, a solo Hulk movie, a solo Black Widow film, a Ms. Marvel movie and who knows? Maybe they’ll finally get around to Squirrel Girl one of these days. Anything’s possible.
CraveOnline will be back with more Marvel Studios news very, very soon. Comic-Con, ahoy!
