There’s plenty of armchair quarterbacking in regards to the state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe today, and what the corporate is doing proper, and what they might be doing higher. One critique I haven’t heard a lot that I feel is honest and maybe extra necessary than it could seem: The early Marvel motion pictures have been closely linked. Every one appeared to guide into the following and characters didn’t disappear for lengthy. Tony Stark confirmed up within the very subsequent film, The Unbelievable Hulk. Hawkeye was in Thor earlier than he was in The Avengers. Captain America flowed instantly into The Avengers, and so forth.

It’s been three years and counting since we noticed the Imaginative and prescient on the finish of WandaVision; it’s been nearly three full years since Shang-Chi’s Ten Rings began giving off a beacon for some cause that’s nonetheless unexplained. And we haven’t seen the brand new Black Panther, Shuri, since her debut within the position in Wakanda Forever nearly two years in the past.
It takes so lengthy for these threads and characters to return that the viewers can overlook about folks and subplots fully. Will we ever even see Shuri once more? Black Panther star Letitia Wright hinted on The View — with out freely giving something particular — that “there’s rather a lot to … rather a lot arising” for the character within the MCU.
