Marvel Studios Sets Four More Release Dates!

Marvel Entertainment released their first quarter report to its shareholders this morning to coincide with the announcement about the success this past weekend of Marvel Studios' first production Iron Man, which grossed an estimated $104.2 million domestically and over $201 million worldwide. The announcement included an update of Marvel Studios' feature film slate with the already-rumored Iron Man 2 announced for a release on April 30, 2010, followed by three more movies for the summers of '10 and '11. Matthew Vaughn's Thor is set for a release on June 4, 2010, and The First Avenger: Captain America (the working title) will kick off the summer of 2011 on May 6, followed by the highly-anticipated and foreshadowed The Avengers scheduled for July 2011. (Edgar Wright's Ant-Man is also listed as being in development with no release date set.)

In a conference call this morning, Marvel Studios' David Maisel said that Iron Man 2 will be used to introduce Thor. Regarding more "Hulk" movies, Maisel said "We definitely plan on continuing." He added that development continues on Spider-Man 4. "I can't give any other updates other than to say it's in development and everybody's excited about 'Spider-Man 4,'" he said.

With that in mind, one can start expecting a lot more announcements in the coming months about creative teams and casting for those movies including who might direct the Captain America and Avengers movies. (Whomever plays Steve Rogers AKA Captain America presumably will be making two movies at once.)

Comic book movies are really starting to grow in Hollywood, which is always a good thing for us fans.

Iron Man was awesome. If the same people are making it, then it will just as good as the first, if not, better.

LOL!! DC has been working on Wonder Woman like forever, and they still can't make up there minds. The same goes with Green Lantern & The Flash, last I heard was they were working on a script on Shazam, but it was a while back already. Its a shame that Warner Bros. does'nt invest in their character or properties.........

I know. I was excited at first when I heard that The Flash was on the works and that Ryan Reynolds was going to play i but I don't know hat happened. Marvel is really going for it though. They're doing good. There are more Marvel movies released than DC I think, right?
