Taking inspiration from the 2015/2016 Secret Wars event from the comics (instead of the 1984/1985 version), Avengers: Secret Wars is a movie that should – despite the best efforts of the titular team – end with the destruction of the Marvel Cinematic Universe continuity as we know it. Instead of being a crossover blockbuster that is designed solely to unfold in the aftermath of 2025’s Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, it should be a movie that is designed to conclude with a massive cliffhanger and launch a special and unique new phase of the MCU. Avengers: Secret Wars is a good place to start, but if Marvel wants to fully deliver on the immense potential that exists with the material, it should only be a beginning. The fact that the cinematic event is coming is exciting, and it has inspired a great deal of speculation ever since last July – but I also can’t help but feel like the idea of having the entirety of Secret Wars play out in a single feature film is thinking too small.
