We're so excited to see the news from SDCC 2019. The SDCC Marvel Studios Hall H News is one the most exciting panels for us coming out of SDCC. Here's the update on what was shared at SDCC from Hall H for the Marvel Phase 4 timeline and schedule for 2020 and 2021!
Marvel Studios announced loads of information about content that will be exclusive to the new Disney+ streaming service (launching November 12) as well as the some of the movies that will be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 4 movies. We have the announcements in order, but among others, we're SO EXCITED about the fact that Valkyrie will be involved in an LGBTQ storyline as Asgard’s new ruler seeks out a Queen to rule alongside her in Marvel Studios’ THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER. WE ARE HERE FOR THIS.
To kick off the panel, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige announced Marvel Studios’ The Eternals starring Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lauren Ridloff, Brian Tyree Henry, Salma Hayek, Lia McHugh, and Don Lee and Directed by Chloé Zhao will be in theaters November 6, 2020.

In the new Disney+ original series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Sam Wilson (The Falcon) and Bucky Barnes (The Winter Soldier) team up in a series of action-filled adventures as they fight together against evil after the events of Avengers: Endgame. Daniel Brühl will also return as the villain Baron Zemo.

Continuing with the Disney+ theme, we finally got some more info for the Disney+ Marvel Studios’ Loki series. Our favorite misunderstood villain, Loki, in an original series starring Tom Hiddleston premieres exclusively on Disney+ Spring 2021. (I wouldn't cry if they changed the logo between now and then, though.)
We've also seen this teased for a while now. The WHAT IF…? comics will be adapted for the screen with the new Marvel Studios’ WHAT IF…?series. This legacy comic series will be the first animated series in the MCU and will feature Jeffrey Wright as the voice of The Watcher, as well as many actors from the MCU reprising their roles as voice talent. We should expect to see this on Disney+ Summer 2021.

Natalie Portman will return for Marvel Studios’ Thor: Love and Thunder, joining stars Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson. As mentioned above, we can't wait to learn more about Tessa's love interest as Valkyrie searches for a Queen to be her partner in Asgard.

Maybe we'll finally learn about Budapest. Even if we don't, we'll definitely find out a lot more about Natasha Romanoff's backstory.
