Marvel Studios has revised its plans for the release of its upcoming film properties, pushing two films back by a year. However, this means that 2011 will be an awesome year for superhero fans. Here’s the new schedule:
May 7th 2010: "Iron Man 2" (same date)
May 6th 2011: "Spider-Man 4" (just announced)
June 17th 2011: "Thor" (delayed a full year)
July 22nd 2011: "The First Avenger: Captain America" (delayed two months)May 4th 2012: "The Avengers" (delayed ten months)
The company appears to have firmly planted its superhero seeds in every summer, as they had Spider-Man 3 in 2007, Iron Man in 2008, Wolverine this year and now three films up to 2012.
2011 also appears to be quite crowded, seeing as how the studio aims to open three films over the space of eleven weeks. And there’s also expectations that the next Batman film will be out sometime that summer as well.
