Earlier this month, we learned that Nigerian-American filmmaker Julius Onah will direct the film. Onah previously directed The Cloverfield Paradox, and this film marks the director's MCU debut. The film is being written by The Falcon and the Winter Soldier's head writer and creator Malcolm Spellman.
We don't know much about the film's plot yet, but Marvel producer Nate Moore previously said this film will explore "what makes somebody Captain America", and dive into Sam Wilson's underdog status as the new Cap.
Also in the panel, we learned that She-Hulk and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will conclude Phase 4 of the MCU, meaning New World Order will presumably be a part of Phase 5.

We've known about the supposedly top-secret Thunderbolts movie through rumors for a bit now, including reports that it will be directed by Jake Schreier (Paper Towns, Robot & Frank) and written by Eric Pearson (Thor: Ragnarok, Black Widow) and produced by Kevin Feige. We don't know any details just yet about what the movie will entail, but IGN has put together an explainer on what we know about Thunderbolts from the comics that might give us an idea of what to expect from the supervillain team that will supposedly reshape the MCU.
Thunderbolts will wrap up Phase 5 of the MCU, and we actually got a fairly detailed overview of not just the end of Phase 4, but all of Phase 5 and some of 6 today. Phase 4 will end with She-Hulk and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (both of which got new trailers today), while Phase 5 will open with Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania on February 17, 2023 and will wrap up with Thunderbolts. Phase 6 will open with Fantastic Four on November 8, 2024 and close with two Avengers movies: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars on May 2, 2025 and November 7, 2025, respectively. Phase 6 will bring The Multiverse Saga to a close.

She-Hulk: Marvel Reveals New Footage, Including a Cameo by Charlie Cox’s Daredevil
Marvel has revealed extended footage from She-Hulk: Attorney-at-Law, and it includes the Hulk, a Hulk/She-Hulk training montage, Emil Blonsky/the Abomination, Wong, and Charlie Cox's Daredevil.
Shown off at San Diego Comic-Con 2022, the footage arrives before She-Hulk: Attorney at Law lands on Disney+ on August 17, 2022, and tells the story of Tatiana Maslany's Jennifer Walters, an "attorney specializing in superhuman-oriented legal cases" who must "navigate the complicated life of a single, 30-something who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk."
She-Hulk's first season will contain nine episodes and is billed as "Marvel's first half-hour comedy series." The Disney+ show will also star Jameela Jamil, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry.
Additionally, She-Hulk will introduce the world to Frog Man - the son of a Spider-Man villain named Vincent Patilio/Leap Frog who is trying his best to be a hero.
She-Hulk, alongside Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, will bring to a close Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This means it will pave the way for Phase 5's Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and so many more.
Marvel also shared that Phase 6 will begin with Fantastic Four on November 8, 2024 and will end with Avengers: The Kang Dynasty on May 2, 2025, and Avengers: Secret Wars on November 7, 2025. These three phases will now be known as The Multiverse Saga.

Revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, Blade will debut in theatres on November 3, 2023. The MCU Blade was announced at Comic-Con 2019 – with the unexpected (and very welcome) casting of Mahershala Ali, who'd previously played villain Cottonmouth in Netflix's Luke Cage series.
Blade won't be a part of the current Phase 4, is being directed by Bassam Tariq, and written by Watchmen's Stacy Osei-Kuffour. We already knew that Delroy Lindo (Da 5 Bloods) and Aaron Pierre (Krypton) would be a part of the movie, too.
This news about Blade dropped during a very enlightening panel at San Diego Comic Con where we learned tons about Marvel's plans for the finale of Phase 4, as well as both Phases 5 and 6, now called The Multiverse Saga. Blade nestles between The Marvels on July 28, 2023, Ironheart and Daredevil: Born Again in the fall of 2023, and Agatha: Coven of Chaos in Winter of 2023/2024, as part of Phase 5. Phase 5 opens on February 17, 2023, with Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania, and concludes on July 26, 2024, with Thunderbolts.
