USA Today reports that Marvel, after this weekend’s success of their first production attempt Iron Man, announced their future movie plans for 2010 and 2011, with release dates for three projects and more general terms for the other two.
A mention of Avengers means Marvel is probably going to try and get the stars of Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Captain America, Ant-Man, Thor, and possibly even Spider-Man into one movie, which will be an interesting challenge. DC Comics tried last year and early this year to pull together plans for a Justice League adaptation, with an all-new cast, but the idea fell through.
Here’s the list:
- Iron Man 2 – April 30, 2010
- Thor – June 4, 2010
- The First Avenger: Captain America – May 6, 2011
- The Avengers – July 2011
- Ant-Man – No release date
