Disney updated its release calendar today, revealing the release date for its Little Mermaid live-action remake along with several new Marvel movies.
The Little Mermaid is now set for a May 26 release date, with two new Marvel movies schedule of July 26 and November 8, 2024 respectively. Elsewhere, Disney finally revealed that the Bob's Burgers movie would be in theaters on May 27, 2022.
One of the new Marvel movies could well be Captain America 4, which will feature Sam Wilson as Captain America. Anthony Mackie closed a deal to appear in the next Captain America movie earlier this year following the conclusion of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. It will reunite Mackie with showrunner Malcolm Spellman, who will write the script for the new film.
The slate takes Disney all the way through 2028, with two untitled Star Wars films planned for 2025 and 2027. Rogue Squadron is still set for December 22, 2023.
As with every studio, Disney's release schedule has been fluid over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a multitude of movies seeing delays. Shang-Chi's recent success in theaters is a much-needed win that appears to have paved the way for Marvel's Eternals to also be released exclusively in theaters.
Disney still has several upcoming movies in 2021, the most notable of them being Eternals, which has a November 5 release date. For more info, check out our calendar featuring upcoming movie release dates, trailers, and more.
