After Secret Wars (or the conclusion of the Multiverse Saga) will Marvel studios reboot the MCU?
Options will resolve as follows:
A hard reboot would erase the established history and start from scratch.
A soft reboot would maintain the existing history but follow a different timeline, bring in variants to replace existing characters, merge universes, retcon history or some other plot contrivance.
No reboot would maintain the timeline as is.
The market will end on the date of the release of Secret Wars.
Update 2025-04-05 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Clarification of Reboot Types
Soft Reboot: Merging multiple universes into one with a combined history (even if some of the same actors are maintained) will be assessed as a soft reboot.
No Reboot: If the entire established timeline is preserved—with only a few character variants replacing deceased ones—the outcome will be considered a no reboot.
