Destin Daniel Cretton, who previously made Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, will helm The Kang Dynasty.
When they announced this plan last weekend at Comic-Con, neither of the films — Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars — had directors.
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty opens in theaters on May 5, 2025.
To pull off that absurdly tight turnaround between the two upcoming Avengers films, Marvel will almost certainly need a separate director working simultaneously on Secret Wars while Cretton works on The Kang Dynasty.
