Marvel is entering a new phase of movies with new characters and new storylines. Fans are excited about the Multiverse saga, which will introduce them to alternative realities. But in a surprising turn of events, Marvel decided to pause the new projects to focus solely on the Multiverse saga.
The unusual move has sent the fans into both dilemma and excitement about what the franchise is planning ahead for the future of MCU. While the Multiverse saga is already a difficult phase to tackle, Marvel’s sole focus on it has further heightened the stakes.
Marvel Is Prioritizing The Multiverse Saga Over Everything
According to Marvel insider Daniel Richtman, the production house has put all other projects on pause to focus on the Multiverse Saga. The Multiverse Saga is reported to conclude in 2027 with ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’.
Sources also claim that the MCU is currently looking to wrap up the ambitious saga and ensure better storytelling. The Multiverse Saga has introduced a wide array of characters and narratives making a progressive success for the franchise. It would be interesting to see what special and unique movies MCU is planning on.

Fans had a mixed reaction to the news of a pause all projects other than the Multiverse Saga. While some are excited that Marvel is focusing solely on one and seemingly the most storyline, others are taken aback that they won’t be able to see their beloved characters for a while.
Their favorite titles were anticipated, would be delayed for a while which would also affect the overall timeline of the MCU.
