At their last SDCC in 2019, the studio revealed Black Widow, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Eternals, Shang-Chi, WandaVision, Doctor Strange 2, Loki, What If, Hawkeye, and Thor: Love and Thunder.
The final title in that lineup, Thor: Love and Thunder, landed in theaters earlier this month. Before SDCC 2019, Marvel Studios also decided to skip SDCC 2018 but gave attendees many surprises the year before at SDCC 2017. Thor: Ragnarok was the big movie of this panel as Marvel Studios showed attendees some clips, debuted a new trailer, and held a Q&A with the cast. The studio also showed off Ant-Man and the Wasp, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, and Avengers: Infinity War.
