As promised last year by Disney CEO Bob Iger, Marvel Studios has scaled back to only 2-3 feature film releases each year, and with "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" in theaters, that's it for the 2025 lineup.

Having been consistently building for the last 17 years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline is quite complicated... and the arrival of The Fantastic Four: First Steps doesn't exactly make things much clearer.

First Steps is out, giving audiences their first look at the MCU's First Family--but how does it stack up to other FF films?

Check out the images posted on Update MCU’s official Instagram account! The pics show some set signage for a building in New York that's under construction and should be finished by December 2027. The story of Captain America: Brave New World takes place in 2026 and 2027, followed by the Thunderbolts in 2027.

Following the recent release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set to be the next movie in the MCU. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the film will once again see Tom Holland reprise his role as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man, while Jon Bernthal will appear as The Punisher/Frank Castle.

Yesterday (July 28), the account Spider-Man News took to X (Twitter) to share photos from the set of the next "Spider-Man" film. These photos don't share much at first glance, but there's a key detail hiding in them that potentially reveals when this movie is set in the MCU.
