When does the next MCU movie come out?

When does the next Marvel Cinematic Universe movie after Ant-Man and the Wasp come out? We have all the information you need to get you ready for the film.
Following the events of April 27’s Avengers: Infinity War, there’s obviously a significant amount of fanfare and speculation regarding what will happen next in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Killing off half of the characters in the film will do that for you.
Audiences will have to wait until next year, May 3, 2019 to be exact, to see the next Avengers installment.
However, there will be more MCU movies coming out before then.
Ant-Man and the Wasp is obviously one, but when is the next one after the Paul Rudd-starring film?
That would be Captain Marvel, which is slated to hit theaters on March 8, 2019.
Starring Brie Larson as the titular hero, Captain Marvel — like Ant-Man and the Wasp before it — will take place prior to the events of both Infinity War and the fourth Avengers film.
It will certainly be interesting to see if either movie sets up the next Avengers movie in any way.
In addition to Larson, Captain Marvel will bring back MCU veterans Samuel L. Jackson, Clark Gregg, Djimon Hounsou and Lee Pace. It will also introduce new characters played by the likes of Gemma Chan, Ben Mendelsohn and Jude Law.
Until then, however, audiences can bide their time by going to see Ant-Man and the Wasp.
In the follow up to Peyton Reed’s 2015’s blockbuster, the latest movie to feature Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang will also return franchise mainstays Evangeline Lilly, Michael Pena, Michael Douglas, Judy Greer, Bobby Cannavale, T.I., David Dastmalchian and Abby Ryder Fortson to the fold.
Ant-Man and the Wasp will also introduce a handful of new faces. Among them are Michelle Pfeiffer’s Janet Van Dyne, Laurence Fishburne’s Dr. Bill Foster, Hannah John-Kamen’s Ghost, Walton Goggins’ Sonny Burch and Randall Park’s Jimmy Woo.
Captain Marvel will hit theaters on March 8, 2019.
Next: Does Ant-Man and the Wasp have a mid-credits scene?
Ant-Man and the Wasp will open in theaters around the country on July 6. As per usual, there will be showings starting at 7:00 p.m. the night before on July 5.
