Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was once set to look drastically different, but then came a pandemic and everything changed.
When Kevin Feige took the Hall H stage at the San Diego International Comic-Con in July 2019, he never could have imagined what would be unleashed in the next months. All that was on his mind was the carefully laid plans for the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It was time to show audiences what this saga looked like after Avengers: Endgame.
However, once the pandemic forced Black Widow to abandon its May 2020 date and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier shut down principal photography, the schedule for the initial installments of Phase Four was thrown out of wack, Falcon took so much time to restart shooting that it wouldn’t debut until March 2021, at which point it would be time for the second Marvel Studios/Disney+ show to launch.
Even with all these in consideration, Kevin Feige has maintained that the only primary way that the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the storytelling of Phase Four in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is through the introduction of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine . Originally meant to first appear in the initial Phase Four debut project Black Widow, she instead premiered in a couple of Falcon and the Winter Soldier episodes.
However, Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has still had to grapple with lots of changes in recent years, including the ways it was getting upended long before the pandemic was even a thought in people’s heads. Back in 2018, a public relations snafu resulted in the original inaugural installment of this stretch of the franchise getting pushed down the road. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was originally set for a May 1, 2020, mimicking the early May of its predecessor.
