Resolution criteria

Avengers: Secret Wars is officially scheduled for release on December 17, 2027. This market resolves YES if Marvel Studios releases a theatrical film titled "Avengers: Secret Wars Part 2" (or equivalent variation such as "Avengers: Secret Wars 2") by December 31, 2030. Resolution will be verified via official Marvel Studios announcements and major entertainment news outlets (Deadline, The Hollywood Reporter, Variety). The market resolves NO if no such sequel is announced or released by the deadline.

Background

Marvel Studios is developing Secret Wars as a "giant five-hour movie" split into two parts, with a year between their releases. The Russo brothers are directing and Robert Downey Jr. is cast as Doctor Doom. Filming for Secret Wars is scheduled to begin in mid-2026. The film will be the 40th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and marks the finale of Phase 6 and concludes The Multiverse Saga.

Considerations

While reports suggest the film may be structured as a two-part story, Marvel Studios has not officially announced a "Part 2" sequel. The studio's official communications refer to a single film releasing in 2027. Whether a continuation materializes depends on the film's performance, creative decisions during production, and Marvel's broader MCU strategy post-Phase 6.
