Crap-I posted this in the timeline thread before I saw this.

I'm guessing that there's a 99.9999999999999% chance Shang Chi will be in this.

Huh. Same kinda pipeline for this one as when the Russos got the nod, then.

Also a BIG show of faith.
Yeah, Shang-Chi's critics' and audience ratings were just about as good as No Way Home's scores. And being released in the experimental time of the pandemic when not all theaters were open and audiences were wary of being in theaters, it exceeded expectations.

"After announcing the Avengers: The Kang Dynasty at this year’s Comic Con, Marvel Studios looks to have found the writer who will now pen the highly-anticipated film. Sources tell Deadline, Jeff Loveness, who recently wrote Ant-Man and Wasp: Quantumania, will pen Avengers: the Kang Dynasty for Marvel. Loveness will join Destin Daniel Cretton, who was recently set as director on the project with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige producing."

Wasn't it unofficially announced or at least strongly rumored a day or two ago that the writer left, too? So, yeah.

Think the Loki season 2 finale gives them a nice out to say "never mind".
Yeah, with rumors that this will be instead a Dr. Doom movie or some other Avengers type movie I believe

Strong rumors are that the Fantastic Four film will feature Galactus, so I’m not sure where Doom is going to come into things.

This may mean Kang is out or it may mean they’re looking for a bigger name director with a more distinctive style - Raimi’s name was being tossed around even before this. As for the writer, the guy who wrote Ant-Man 3 was always going to get tossed, so the only thing interesting there is the timing. This may all be damage control.

Well the idea is that Doom would be behind the scenes pulling the strings for a Multiversal Secret Wars maybe even leading into something like Battleworld, like in the comics.

Oh I get that. But for that to have an impact, the character needs to be set up somewhere. Maybe you introduce him in the first of the two Avengers films, but that seems narratively tricky.

See, now THAT article says more about a Shang Chi 2 update than the actual article about the Shang Chi 2 update. I said this a couple of weeks ago....Kang Dynasty needs to just be cancelled and they need to get with Shang Chi 2 and then a reboot of the MCU with the F4 and mutants. They can also throw in some more Black Panther movies with a growing son of T'Challa.

No more team ups are really needed. Not with a fractured set of storylines. Spiderman can have his own universe. So can Sam Wilson and, if they really want to, Dr. Strange. Carol Danvers is over. If you want a Bruce Banner cameo, fine. But forcing ALL of them together is now pointless. Doom and Galactus need to be the new big baddies.

Deadline reports Michael Waldron will write the script for Avengers: Kang Dynasty.

"Michael Waldron has been tapped to write Marvel Studios‘ Avengers: Kang Dynasty. Waldron had already been set to write the installment that would follow Kang Dynasty and will now write both films. Waldron has become one of Marvel’s most trusted creative minds having previously created and served as showrunner of season 1 of Loki as well as writing Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness and the move make sense to the studio to have him pen both films. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige will produce."
