TheHollywood Reporterreports that Marvel is now in talks to bring Joe and Anthony Russo back as directors ofAvengers 5and6.

However, there is also risk here.

Feige might do well to look back to theJames Bondfranchise before he makes a final decision.

In 1969, Eon Productions had a problem.

Its hard to miss the similarities between Eons conundrum and the current state of the MCU in 2024.

Kevin Fiege and Co. planned on following up by expanding the universe and trying something new.

But the plan didnt work.

Even if the movies still turned a profit, box office numbers diminished and reviews grew hostile.

3andLokiseason two got drowned out by dismal works such asSecret InvasionandEternals.

Instead, Marvel seems happy for now to make their own version ofDiamonds Are Forever.

Connerys last outing pleased critics and fans at the time, but now its seen as an embarrassing misfire.
