It would make sense. Thor: Ragnarök is the last 2017 MCU film without a director attached.

In Thor: Ragnarok. Woah.
I figured this would happen great way to introduce Thanos by showing him wreck Odin and Asgard and leave.

Damage Control is coming to ABC https://deadline.com/2015/10/marvel-damage-control-tv-series-comedy-abc-1201566243/
This sounds so good and could be a lot of fun! I would really want a show that focuses on the everyday people instead of the heroes.

Sorry for the bump, but I came across this image on 9Gag
and I thought it'd be a cool idea to introduce into the MCU.
Granted, its a bit of a far-fetched idea with the villains coming back as the pawns of Thanos, but it would give Marvel a chance to really do these villains justice; Ultron minus his quip module, an actually menacing Ronan, Red Skull without the comic over-acting, and Malekith with some semblance of a personality.
my shame knows no bounds

Always a cool idea, but remember that Malekith didn't die from the Aether, he died from being crushed by his ship.

& Christopher Eccleston doesn't do sequels/returns usually.
I think the villains for the remaining gems (I'm guessing Guardians 2 and Dr Strange) would be more interesting in any case.
It's not a new theory, I've read this "rumour" a couple of times before. Personally, I think it could be a great idea, but I think it's unlikely. I could see it as most likely for the Red Skull, if not for the Hugo Weaving situation.
My hope at the moment is that Infinity War 1 is told from the perspective of Thanos, and his helpers. He would first go to Xandar, destroy the Nova Corps, get the stone there. Then the Collector. Then he'd battle the Asgardian forces (weakened by Ragnarok) and get the Gauntlet and stone there. By then we have established how strong Thanos really is and he'd now go to earth (about 45 mins into Infinty War 1).
On earth he'd battle the Avengers (as they are after Civil War) and beat them to the next stone (possibly ripping Vision apart to get the Mind Stone). All seems lost, Infinity War 1 ends, but not before we hear Steve Rogers finally say (as the last words of the film) "Avengers Assemble!".
After-credits teaser: Some Guardians board a ship to earth.
Infinity War 2 is the old heroes coming together with the remaining strong new-ones (Captain Marvel, Dr. Strange).

comic over acting? the movie was the one that sanitized Red Skull and made him a general mad man out of fear of blow back from making someone that damn racist evil ,nazi and german. It was really nice of them to add the scene of him killing german soldiers smart move disney lets all hug and lament that he was going to blow up Berlin awwww. Get real, that was the nicest Red Skull in the history of the universe and it was for the sake of film fans not because thats how he is in the comics. Hell the well racially integrated Hydra alone makes me laugh every Tuesday at 10pm.
Ronan was plenty menacing his motivation was just lame, one planet is nothing to the kree empire and therefore nothing to an accuser the kree let alone one as high up as Ronan. Bomb it and move on. They tried to have these religious fervor being part of Ronan when his god is the very empire of the kree and its advancement. Its's an honor culture based on works and power , Xandar is nothing to the Kree
I agree about Ultron but thats Whedons way he should've done Kang or something he cannot do actually evil villains he doesn't seem to grasp that concept or believe its possible and its evident in his work over the decades. He's the anti John Carpenter who was the master of making purely evil things on screen. Whedon is all about relative good and evil. Ultron would let him watch as he killed or enslaved everyone around Whedon and saved him for last for the mere fact that his worldview is of no threat to him.
Malekith is just ...well terrible and that is because all of Thor is being tentatively done and it would make no sense to do him as the dark elf in between life and death with hounds and a bat shit personality. The appraoch to Thor was bad from the start , high tech space vikings instead of being a culture with applied skills and craftsmanship, along with an affinity to magic. It's shoe horned into a dumb corner now, That was probably because of money though , It's cheaper than being a LoTR type of production which what Thor would require to be done well.

Man, I really hope this comes about eventually.
He was so coated in makeup in that film (and his character written so blandly) that he could probably be replaced without too many people noticing the difference, even though Eccleston himself is a fine actor.
... I not even recognized him and I watched the first new Season of Dr. Who until last week.... Wow
That's what I am really hoping for. For Cosmo to have a big part in the team.
Can someone recommend me some comics with Cloak and Dagger?
I thought they were small joke characters but apparently they're great.
PS: I think we should add Marvel's Most Wanted and Marvel's Damage Control to the rumor section of the OP.

Damage Control isn't a rumour and is already part of the TV section.
Yeah, Eccleston's potential was completely wasted in Thor 2. It's a real shame.
I still can't wrap my brain around that announcement.
They got the wrong date. Thor was moved to Nov 3, 2017.
Spider-Man is now Jul 28.
I've had a feeling Marvel might bring them back for the finale. Part of me thinks it could be cool; the other part of me just wants Thanos to show how powerful he is and wreck these fools by himself. Could just have them all defeated by time Thanos has all 6 gems in the gauntlet -- then it's all of the "heroes" vs Thanos for the most intense, most awesome, most kick ass fight in movie history. A 30 min (at least) non-stop fight that has people passing out from how amazing it is. Thanos standing at the end with everyone dead at his feet.
And this mixed with a different take on the Avengers finally Assembled 360 degree shot from The Avengers.
Glorious
Enjoy, my friend.Just found out that my campus is doing a screening for Ant-Man today.
Dont worry. Maybe shortly before S02 starts.

Straight Outta Compton director F. Gary Gray is in contention to direct Black Panther.
He was originally considered for Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

I personally hope not because outside of Straight Outta Compton his filmography is not the best*, but I trust Marvel at this point.
*and also because I'm still hoping for Spike Lee
I'd rather have Ava, but this works too.

He's a good choice I remember wanting him for Winter Solider.
I'd be down for this.
I'm okay with this. Straight Outta Compton was great.

Miles Morales may appear alongside Peter Parker in the Spider-Man reboot, according to director Jon Watts.

no but i do wonder how they would do a same world ultimate spiderman with spiderman, I kinda like the mantle passing from Parker to Morales after a full fleshed out storyline that Parker got in the comics , doing palette swaps are all the rave these days and they suck....every generation has their foil cover hologram craze i guess.
From the sound of that interview, it feels less like Miles would just take over as Spidey one day and more like if he did show up, he would be the War Machine to Peter's Iron Man.
Blame it on the awful annoying people in the MCU Spider-Man Announcement Threads.

Nah. I think it would be more of an easter egg thing if it happened while simultaneously allowing Marvel/Sony the option of Miles in the future. I mean that would allow for them to reboot Spidey without actually rebooting the series, if they wanted to go that direction later. It wouldn't retcon the Peter stuff but would still allow for entirely different Spidey stories.

Intriguing news. It looks like we probably won't get an announce for a director of Black Panther until sometime early next year.
He's already been hired to write the screenplay for the Inhumans film.

EDIT: Nevermind, the Wrap article says he's no longer involved with Inhumans.
Works for me.
