As summer 2026 rolls around, this year's stack of upcoming superhero movies will start to edge closer to theatres. After a rather quiet few years, the superhero genre is heating up again, with multiple Marvel and DC films set to come out in just a matter of months, with even more currently in development, too.
From Marvel Phase 6, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set to make July a little more interesting as Tom Holland takes on his fourth solo Spidey movie,. Then, just in time for Christmas, we will see Robert Downey Jr. enter his villain era as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday. As for DCU: Chapter One, Milly Alcock's Supergirl will take on a string of rather chilling baddies in her first solo movie. Then this Halloween, DC Studios will scare us silly with horror hero mash up Clayface, which has just released its first chilling trailer giving us a peek at the villian's origins.
Don't worry about missing out on any important updates, as we've got you covered below with everything you need to know about the new superhero movies coming your way. For more, you can dig into our guides to all the upcoming Marvel movies and upcoming DC movies.
