Avengers Endgame wrapped up Marvel’s Infinity Saga with Spider-Man: Far from Home serving as the official end of Phase 3. At Comic Con 2019, Marvel officially announced release dates for Phase 4 which would have kicked off next month with the release of Black Widow on May 1st. However, due to COVID-19 Marvel had announced new release dates for Phase 4 earlier in April, but last week the schedule was shuffled once again to include a sequel to last year’s Spider-Man: Far from Home. So, while the schedule for Marvels release dates are seemingly set, it could still change with the addition of sequels or acquisitions of new rights to characters or if COVID-19 delays the entertainment industry even longer. As for now here are the release dates for Phase 4
