Back in April, it was reported that a fourth Captain America movie was in development, with Malcolm Spellman penning the script alongside The Falcon and the Winter Soldier staff writer Dalan Musson.

The director and further casting for the movie have not been set yet. Given Marvel’s crowded feature slate, Captain America 4, which technically hasn’t been officially announced, almost certainly won’t premiere until 2023, at the earliest.

This year, Marvel has Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Eternals and Spider-Man: No Way Home. In 2022, Marvel has Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and the Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels.
