It feels like we’re rounding the corner from the effects of COVID19, and if the vaccinations can outpace the variants then maybe, just maybe, we’ll have a normal second half of 2021. I’m sure that’s what movie lovers, and especially movie theaters, are hoping for. And the MCU is certainly going all in on a return to normalcy because starting in July there will be a new MCU movie released every month except for August and October.

Phase 4: Finally

The Marvel Cinematic Universe officially kicks off Phase 4 with:

Black Widow

Release Date: July 9th, 2021

What we know: The film stars David Harbour as Alexei – a.k.a. The Red Guardian – Florence Pugh as Yelena, O-T Fagbenle as Mason, and Rachel Weisz as Melina.

The story takes place after Captain America: Civil War. The plot sees Natasha returning home to the former Soviet Bloc to deal with some unresolved issues and face her spy “family”.

According to director Cate Shorthand: the film will serve as a passing of the baton from Natasha to Yelena, and a “last hurrah” for Johansson, who will leave the MCU after the project. So it’s going to propel another female storyline.

This is a great app. I wish more people would support it

This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!

Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.

Release Date: September 3, 2021

In the comics, Shang-Chi was the son of legendary literary villain Fu Manchu, but considering Fu Manchu is one of the few IPs not owned by the Disney, fans speculate that Shang-Chi’s father may turn out to be the “real” Mandarin, teased in the Iron Man 3 Blu-ray short film “All Hail the King.” The 10 rings the Mandarin wears have cosmic origins, which may play into the larger Phase 4 story.

Eternals

Release Date: November 5, 2021

The Eternals are a race of powerful proto-humans engineered by the Celestials to harness vast amounts of cosmic energy. Infighting and wars between the Eternals and another Celestial experiment, the Deviants, followed.

The story is centered on an Eternal named Sersi (Gemma Chan) with the powers of flight, strength, immortality, and molecular manipulation.

Spider-Man: No Way Home

Release Date: December 17, 2021

No Way Home seems destined to introduce something akin to the Spider-verse into the plot, because the previous two incarnations of Spiderman, played by Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire, have been in discussions to reprise their roles, as have two of the villains: Jamie Foxx as Electro and Alfred Molina as Doctor Octopus.

Plus, Benedict Cumberbatch has joined the cast as Doctor Strange, but is likely to play a small mentor role.

Since Sony ultimately owns Spider-Man’s rights, his role in the MCU is precarious at best. What’s known is that he’ll have this movie, plus another non-starring role in another MCU movie. Beyond that… Who knows?

There are 4 MCU movies scheduled to release before 2021 is finished. Which movie are you looking forward to the most?

Dan Gardner

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂

Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
