Kevin Feige Says More Marvel Films Will Be Set in Space After Avengers 4

Since James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is expected to set the stage for the next phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Avengers 4, many assumed that more Marvel films will be set in space, and according to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, those assumptions are right. While we still don't know how the next phase of the MCU will unfold, Feige said that he wants to see more Marvel films set in space. During a recent interview with Omelete, he said:

"If the Avengers survive, we will see more films with them in space. I love and would like to see more films in space."

The events of the next two Avengers films will most likely lead to more cosmic adventures, and if Disney ends up actually buying Fox, there are a lot more Marvel stories set in space that they can adapt, especially with characters like Silver Surfer, Galactus, Fantastic Four, and more.

Here's what James Gunn previously said about the future of the MCU:

"One of the things I'm doing with creating Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: It will take place after the next two Avengers movies, and it will help to set up the next ten, twenty, years of Marvel movies. It's going to really expand the cosmic universe. We're going to be setting up new characters; it will be the last movie of this version of Guardians of the Galaxy."

It would be exciting to see the MCU continue to expand by featuring stories set in space but I'm sure there will still be Marvel films set on Earth.

Avengers: Infinity War will be released in theaters on May 4, 2018; Avengers 4 will be out May 3, 2019.
