'Avengers' Movies Will Continue Beyond 'Avengers 4'

Although the upcoming Avengers 4 has been teased as the end of an era and the beginning of a new one, it’s been confirmed the Avengers films won’t be coming to a close, according to Disney CEO Bob Iger.

During an earnings call, Iger teased what’s in store for the Marvel Cinematic Universe post-Avengers 4, stating:

We meet on a regular basis with our Marvel team, and we’ve plotted out Marvel movies that will take us well into the next decade. I’m guessing we will try our hand at what I’ll call a new franchise beyond Avengers, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t see more Avengers down the road. We just haven’t made any announcements about that.

Furthermore, Iger made note of how Infinity War was to “have a significant conclusion” to the story that began in 2008’s Iron Man, despite it being shot back-to-back with Avengers 4. “Given the popularity of the characters and given the popularity of the franchise, I don’t think people should conclude there will never be another Avengers movie,” Iger said.
