Marvel Studios taps Loki creator Michael Waldron to write Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, which is set to precede Avengers: Secret Wars.
According to Deadline, Marvel Studios has tapped Michael Waldron to write Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. This places the Loki creator as the man who will bring the Multiverse Saga to a close, as he’s already attached to write Avengers: Secret Wars as well.
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty has been through a number of major changes this month. Jeff Loveless (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania) was originally set to pen the screenplay, but it was announced two weeks ago that he was no longer attached to the project; Then, just one day later, Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings) stepped down as director. With Michael Waldron handling the writing side of both The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars, there have been rumours that Marvel is looking for a director to helm both movies.
Michael Waldron entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the creator of Loki and served as head writer for the first season before handing the reigns to Eric Martin for the second. He also wrote Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness before Marvel signed him to write Avengers: Secret Wars as well.
