Sorry if you wanted a new visual style for the next two Avengers movies, because we're returning to what once worked extremely well with the Russo Brothers. Honestly, after about three rough years for Marvel Studios and Disney, who can blame them?

The Hollywood Reporter shared this news, firmly saying that early talks are ongoing, but the deal seems pretty much locked in. For the filmmakers, who departed the House of M after two fantastic Captain America sequels and two era-defining Avengers entries that became two of the highest-grossing movies of all time, this is also a positive development, as their post-Endgame directing work (Cherry and The Gray Man) has been nothing but a big disappointment.

That much is true, as we've been hearing plenty of wild rumors and reports ever since Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton departed Avengers 5, once titled The Kang Dynasty, before Jonathan Majors turned out to be a real-life villain. As for Secret Wars, a director was never announced.
