Today we are sharing some Doctor Strange 3 rumors, plus MCU slate changes and more rumors from a fairly reliable source. The new information comes from insider GreatPhase who posted a series of social media claims as you can see below. It’s probably a good idea to compare this to the Phase 5 rumor round up we shared yesterday and see what items match, a few of them do.
Let’s start with the rumor that Doctor Strange 3 is being fast tracked to happen before Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
2026
Doctor Strange 3, Kang Dynasty and Eternals Sequel.
They are exploring moving Avatar 4 up to November or delay it back a year to give Secret Wars December instead of pushing it to May 2027.— Jason Kane (Greatphase) (@GGeneralHolt8) January 9, 2023
That’s quite a few changes if true, also would Derrickson come back for the third one? Would Marvel be more willing to go in the direction he wanted?
There’s more:
2024 series will be Echo, Wonder Man, Agatha and Daredevil
2025 will be where they slow series down a bit to Vision Quest, Midnight Angels and Moon Knight S2
They are looking into doing a Kamar Taj set series to tie into Doctor Strange 3 as more magic users are popping up

Now those leaks yesterday (see related link below) mentioned a Wong series in development and that could be the same as this Kamar Taj series mentioned above?
Equally, we have heard rumors before that Ultron would return in the MCU during this next Phase.
Midnight Angels will be Disney Plus' Game of Thrones level series. Expect all major Wakanda players such as M'Baku, Nakia, Shuri, W'Kabi as well as Val to appear.

This one also seems familiar to some more vague rumors about a Wakandan set Disney+ series we heard previously. Perhaps this is what came out of that development process?

I feel most fans would agree Doctor Strange 3 is a definite at some point, and it would kinda make sense to give one of the MCU’s big players this third solo movie prior to the big Avengers movies coming. The rest of the rumors above all certainly sound believable and match a few other rumors. However as always, treat any rumors with a pinch of salt until official news is forthcoming from Marvel.
