Disney is reviewing its calendar. The American entertainment giant on Monday announced the postponement of the release of films from Marvel Studios for several months and postponed the release of the fifth episode ofIndiana Jones, still with Harrison Ford. According to the specialized site Deadline, it is a domino effect to leave a little air to the Eternals (November 3) and Spider-Man: No Way Home (Dec. 15), both of which are expected to pass the $ 100 million U.S. box office mark for their launch, according to Disney predictions.
Thus, the future episode of the series from Marvel Studios Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness has been postponed from March to May 2022. Likewise for the next Thor (Love and thunder) with Natalie Portman from May to July of next year. A postponement of three months also for the new Black panther (Wakanda Forever) from July to November 2022.
