Marvel drops big news, announces movies and dates ahead..
(CNN) — Marvel announced a huge slate of forthcoming films at a Tuesday news conference — including a two-part “Avengers,” “Infinity War” — but left out a bit of “Strange” information fans were waiting for.
At an enthusiastic gathering at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theatre, Marvel chief Kevin Feige reeled off announcements for a new Captain America film, a “Guardians of the Galaxy” sequel and the two-part Avengers adventure. The company also plans to introduce some of its other characters on the big screen, including Black Panther, Captain Marvel and the Inhumans.
Although a “Doctor Strange” film was announced, Marvel didn’t bring out Benedict Cumberbatch, who has been widely rumored to be in negotiations to play the powerful magician.
