Marvel Studios will not hold its annual Saturday Hall H presentation at San Diego Comic-Con this year, although Marvel Entertainment will still have panels and events devoted to comics and games as well as a booth on the showroom floor.

“With Avengers: Doomsday moving its release date from May 2026 to December 2026, the studio is holding its powder for Comic-Con 2026, rather than suspend production in London to fly its cast of more than two dozen stars to appear on stage in San Diego this year,” according to Variety.

This year’s San Diego Comic-Con coincides with the release of Marvel’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Marvel Studios went big for last year’s show, with a special Thursday panel for Deadpool & Wolverine and the big reveal of Robert Downey Jr.’s casting as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. The studio also put on a huge Galactus drone show over the skies of San Diego.

The last time Marvel skipped SDCC was in 2023 due to the Hollywood labor strikes.

One could speculate that just because Marvel Studios won’t be at SDCC that doesn’t mean parent company Disney won’t be there as the studio has sci-fi titles TRON: Ares and Avatar: Fire and Ash opening later this year.
