Phase 4 is right around the corner.
New decade, new MCU. Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is kicking off with a bang on screens both big and small and naturally, the Super Bowl was prime time to showcase some of the upcoming projects Marvel Studios has waiting in the wings. A brand new Black Widow teaser showcased the villain Taskmaster as well as Natasha, Yelena, Melina, and Red Guardian–but that’s not all. We also got our first ever official clips of three upcoming MCU Disney+ shows: The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, WandaVision, and Loki.
Naturally, with only 30-seconds worth of footage, we were left with some pretty major questions for all three, but that’s where the fun can really begin. GameSpot rounded up their biggest and most obsessive MCU and Marvel comics fans to start doing what they do best: Theorizing wildly over every tiny scrap of information passed their way. What’s going on with Sam Wilson? Is Baron Zemo really a bad guy now? Is WandaVision actually in the Wakandan Matrix? Is Loki in time jail?
We can’t be sure–but we’re absolutely going to start guessing. Let’s break down some of the biggest and most interesting details from the Super Bowl Disney+ spot and see if we can figure out what they might mean.
