MCU Phase 5"s Biggest Failure Sets Up A Very Difficult Task For The Marvels

Summary

• The Marvels faces major challenges after the disappointing performance of a Phase 5 project in the MCU, but it will introduce new heroes and a family dynamic.
• The debut of Zawe Ashton's villain and the return of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury add excitement, but the association with Secret Invasion could be a hindrance.
• The Marvels can overcome the Secret Invasion problem by explaining its elements separately and focusing on its own storyline to break free from the shadow of the low-rated series.

After the disappointing performance of one Phase 5 project in the MCU, Marvel Studios' upcoming The Marvels has some major challenges to overcome. As the sequel to 2019's Captain Marvel, The Marvels will mark the return of Brie Larson as Carol Danvers, but she won't be working solo in her new space-faring adventure. WandaVision's Teyonah Parris and Ms. Marvel's Iman Vellani will be joining her as new MCU heroes Monica Rambeau, a.k.a. Photon, and Kamala Khan, a.k.a. Ms. Marvel, respectively. While The Marvels will introduce a new team and family dynamic to the MCU, the Phase 5 film also acts as a sequel to one of the MCU's lowest-rated installments.
Not only will The Marvels mark the debut of Zawe Ashton's villain Dar-Benn, who entangles Captain Marvel, Photon, and Ms. Marvel's similar light-based abilities, but The Marvels' cast also features the return of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. The former Director of SHIELD is one of the MCU's longest-running characters, and The Marvels will see him back in action aboard the SABER Space Station and introducing Kamala Khan to wider world of the MCU. Nick Fury's story, and the adventure that started in Captain Marvel, was expanded on in Phase 5 and will develop further in The Marvels, but this will only make The Marvels' job even more challenging.
