A recent rumor suggests that one of Marvel Studios’ upcoming shows will reportedly set up Avengers: Secret Wars. Much of the groundwork for the film, one year away from release, is expected to be laid by Avengers: Doomsday, arriving later this year. While plot and cast details for Secret Wars are being kept under wraps, speculation about the same is going strong.
VisionQuest, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and Avengers 5 likely to set up Secret Wars
VisionQuest and Spider-Man: Brand New Day will reportedly set up Avengers: Secret Wars, alongside Avengers: Doomsday, as per a new rumor.
Notable industry insider Alex Perez of the Cosmic Circus recently conducted a Patreon/Discord Q&A session. He answered various questions about Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
During the session, a fan asked Perez if all of Marvel Studios’ films and television shows releasing this year, like Wonder Man, VisionQuest, Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day, will tie into their respective leads showing up in Secret Wars instead of Doomsday.
Perez responded, “Some will, some won’t. BND and VisionQuest are in the yes category.”
Thus, based on Perez’s response, VisionQuest and Spider-Man: Brand New Day will likely include major story connections to Secret Wars. Meanwhile, Wonder Man and Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, as well as Jon Bernthal’s Punisher special, are/will be self-contained stories.
Ultimately, this is only a rumor. This means fans will have to wait until VisionQuest and Brand New Day’s releases to find out if they will establish storylines tying into Secret Wars.
VisionQuest is expected to arrive sometime in 2026. However, an official release date hasn’t been set for the series, which is reportedly expected to have eight episodes. The series is a sequel spin-off of WandaVision. The story will follow White Vision, who tries to connect to his deceased predecessor’s memories, which he gained at the end of the latter show.
Meanwhile, Spider-Man: Brand New Day launches into theaters on July 31, 2026, while Avengers: Doomsday arrives on December 18, 2026. On the other hand, Avengers: Secret Wars premieres on December 17, 2027.
