Armor Wars’ Secret Invasion Connection Teases Huge Stark Tech Twist
A huge Stark technology twist could come to the Marvel Cinematic Universe thanks to Armor Wars' connection to Secret Invasion. Marvel Studios is planning to continue expanding the use of Iron Man's tech as the Multiverse Saga unfolds by giving Don Cheadle's James Rhodes a long-awaited solo project. Originally imagined as a Disney+ series, Armor Wars has since been reimagined as an MCU movie. It joins Ironheart and other projects as upcoming MCU programming that retains a connection to Tony Stark's technology even after the character died in Avengers: Endgame.
Armor Wars is confirmed to be one of many MCU movies in development, but it does not currently have a spot on the Phase 5 or Phase 6 release slate. There has been little setup for the movie that is expected to revolve around a storyline where Stark's tech falls into the wrong hands. This will allow Rhodey to jump into action to help protect Iron Man's legacy. Spider-Man: No Way Home shows the government taking Stark's belongings, which has been speculated to be a piece of setup for Armor Wars. However, there is a much bigger MCU connection potentially on the horizon thanks to Secret Invasion.
