Marvel Studios is well known for keeping as tight of a lock as possible on spoilers for its upcoming projects, especially with so many major entries coming in Phase 4. That being said, the track record with information about spoilers in entries for 2021 and later has been something of a mixed bag in terms of successful secret-keeping.On the Disney+ side, Evan Peters’ reprisal of Quicksilver from Fox’s X-Men movies in WandaVision came through in rumors dating as far back as June 2020, more than six months before the series premiered....

So it was no surprise when it was panned critically while also earning itself a rare C+ from CinemaScore, which resulted in its plummet at the box office. Now, it may be a negative sign for Sony’s Madame Web too.

Unintentional falls accounted for almost 32,000 deaths in 2014, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, so having a plan to stay upright while you’re walking in icy conditions — even if it’s just to get to the mailbox — can make a big difference....

Last year, Tom Hiddleston’s fan-favorite villain got his own solo project: Loki. The Disney+ project saw the God of Mischief thrown into the Time Variance Authority, where he, alongside the rest of the MCU fandom, got a crash course in the Multiverse. On top of that, everyone also got to meet some of his many Variants, including one who was an actual alligator. Thankfully, there’s plenty more to come. While Season 1 head writer Michael Waldron won’t be returning, as the Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness writer has handed the baton over to Eric Martin, the former Loki lead noted how the upcoming adventure was going to be “a great continuation… that feels different [than what came before]....

One of the most-watched MCU Disney+ series last year was easily Tom Hiddleston’s Loki. The God of Mischief’s first solo outing drew a big audience, and it brought the Marvel Cinematic Universe to some mind-bending new places. In fact, it was the first project to feature Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror, whose Multiversal Variants will eventually go on to become the next Thanos-level big bad.

However, it’s also now vulnerable in more ways than one. Since Black Panther 2 decided against recasting Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa, the film will address the loss of Wakanda’s king, making way for two new leaders to take center stage of the franchise....
