2023 is going to be one of the biggest years for new superhero movies in quite some time. Marvel Phase 5 starts in February with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, with James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and The Marvels still to come.
Speaking of Gunn, the director is now in the top job (with producer Peter Safran) over at DC. While we're still waiting to see the complete slate for what the pair have been cooking up, there's already been talk about a new Superman movie. Plus, there are still multiple DCEU features still scheduled for release this year.
So… there’s a lot to catch up on. In our guide to new superhero movies, we aim to take you through the next few years of DC and Marvel roadmaps. But, fair warning: some may still be canceled or will move, so watch this space.

New superhero movies (TBA)
Various new superhero movies have been announced and are in various stages of pre-development. It's no guarantee that any of these, bar a few MCU offerings, make it to the big screen, but they're worth keeping an eye on all the same. Any previous DC project, such as Gotham City Sirens and Green Lantern Corps, are likely dead under the new DC Studios regime. Co-CEO James Gunn expects to announce the new slate imminently.
