2024 is jam-packed with upcoming superhero movies worth getting excited about. We might be moving into the end of the year after the extravaganza that was Deadpool and Wolverine, but there's plenty more where that came from. Next up is Joker: Folie à Deux, a sequel to Joker that stars Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur Fleck and Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn (known as Lee in this movie).
Looking ahead, Marvel Phase 5 will wrap up with Thunderbolts*, and Marvel Phase 6 will kick off with the Fantastic Four's introduction to the MCU. 2025 is also the year we'll first see DCU Chapter One on the big screen, too. In short, there's plenty to look forward to this year and next.

Previous DC projects, such as Gotham City Sirens and Green Lantern Corps, are now dead under the new DC Studios regime.
