MCU After Secret Wars: The Reset Plan Is Finally Clear
MCU After Secret Wars: The Reset Plan Is Finally Clear — the clearest look yet at how Marvel plans to rebuild the universe after Doomsday and Secret Wars bring the Multiverse Saga to a close. For years, fans have questioned whether Marvel truly has a long-term roadmap. But the rumored 2028 MCU slate may finally reveal how the studio plans to merge timelines, recast icons, and restore narrative focus.
In this video, we break down why the Russo brothers’ reported “soft reboot” approach matters, how a stabilized post-Secret Wars timeline opens the door for a fully integrated X-Men reboot, and why Black Panther 3, Fantastic Four, and a grounded Spider-Man era might anchor Marvel’s next decade. We also explore the biggest lingering questions: Which heroes survive the multiversal collapse? Which legacies get recast? And how does Marvel avoid repeating the mistakes of Phases 5 and 6?
From a leaner film slate to the rise of young heroes, street-level storytelling, and the long-awaited return of Doctor Doom, this deep dive explains the strategies that could define Phase 7 and beyond. If Marvel sticks the landing on Secret Wars, 2028 might just be the beginning of the MCU’s second golden age.
