On the dimensions of Marvel Cinematic Universe surprises, Thor: Love and Thunder ending with the debut of Hercules — and Hercules being performed by Ted Lasso star Brett Goldstein (and Brett Goldstein enjoying Hercules in a reasonably comic-accurate costume that included no shirt, a giant inexperienced harness, and a goofy yellow visor) — has to rank very extremely.
That was final summer season. Since then, we’ve gotten completely no indication when or the place or even when Hercules would possibly present up once more. The subsequent Thor film would really feel like a reasonably secure wager … if Marvel was making one other Thor film. At this level, they’re not. (At the least they haven’t introduced one, that means if one other Thor occurs it will be no less than three years away.)
So the place is Hercules? Marvel teased us with an important actor in an important function and now … we’re simply ready for any clue the place he would possibly present up once more. If Goldstein himself is to be believed, even he isn’t certain when he would possibly placed on that revealing Hercules outfit once more. In a brand new profile in Selection, Goldstein “claims he has no clue what’s taking place [with Marvel],” together with the potential of Herc getting his personal solo movie.

Part 4 of the MCU had a bunch of very stunning cameos like Goldstein’s which can be taking a really very long time to play out. Charlize Theron debuted within the credit to Physician Unusual within the Multiverse of Insanity. Eternals featured the debut of Harry Types as Eros and Patton Oswalt as Pip the Troll. However then Eternals was a giant disappointment and it’s began to really feel like these characters could not present up wherever for years. (Possibly we’ll see them once more in Avengers: Secret Wars? However that movie doesn’t come out till Might of 2026.)
