All Marvel and DC films still scheduled to come out in 2021

Thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, 2020 has been a disturbing year in many areas of life. Many industries have been affected, including the movie industry, with cinemas struggling to stay open while studios delay the release of films until large audiences can safely gather to watch them on a big screen. After years of receiving several films from Marvel Studios, Sony Pictures and DC Films, fans of superhero cinema had very little in 2020, with an interval between the release of Birds of prey at the beginning of the year and Wonder Woman 1984debut on Christmas Day. If things go according to the current plan, everything will change in 2021.

It looks like it’s going to be a tough year for DC Films, with only one movie on its schedule after pushing Batman in 2022. However, Marvel Studios appears to be making up for lost time by releasing four Marvel Cinematic Universe films in 2021. Meanwhile, Sony Pictures will expand its version of a Marvel universe shared with two new Spider-Man-derived films, including one hit sequence Poison.

Read on to see all of the Marvel and DC Comics films to be released in 2021. Let us know which ones you’re most looking forward to seeing in the comments section.
