The ongoing global health crisis has significantly affected Hollywood, which is currently on standby with Spider-Man 3 movie from July to November 5, 2021.

Essentially, the latest changes result in Taika Waititi's Thor: Love and Thunder to move its release day a week ahead from February 18 to February 11, 2022. While that may not be a significant difference, things are a bit different with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which is now set to be directed by Sam Raimi. The Benedict Cumberbatch-led sequel gets further pushed back from November 5, 2021 to March 25, 2022. The sequel is now delayed by 10 months from its initial May 2021 release. With these The Incredible Hulk's record, with those movies hitting theaters May 2 and June 13, 2008 respectively.

For context, the next shortest gap in-between MCU movies is seven weeks, with last year's Spider-Man: Homecoming (July 7) had a nine-week separation. Other than these films, the MCU typically spreads out their releases throughout the year with at least a 10-week break between films. This is to ensure that each project can spend as much time playing in cinemas having minimal or totally no overlaps in theatrical runs to maximize ticket sales for each of their movies.

Marvel Studios releasing films in the first three months of the year is a fairly new practice. April or May dates are usually reserved for their big releases like the Avengers or other high-profile ones like five MCU movies in 2022 alone, fans can expect shorter gaps between their movies. Perhaps not as short of a break between Thor: Love and Thunder and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness since the Coronavirus pandemic played a big part in that. Then again, couple that with their new TV shows hitting Disney+, it's safe to say that there won't be any shortage of MCU content moving forward.
