The MCU is currently in a major ‘hit-and-miss’ phase ever since the end of the glorious Infinity Saga withAvengers: Endgamedirected by the Russo Brothers. Most MCU projects including films and TV shows have underwhelmed audiences due to their decline in quality and the confusing direction of the current Multiverse Saga. 2023 has been a pretty disappointing year for the MCU with poor quality content except forGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
As the MCU moves on, fans are relying on the upcoming twoAvengersmovies to bring back the glory days and the epic storytelling that the MCU achieved before. Even thoughAvengers: The Kang Dynastyalready has its director in Destin Daniel Cretton,Avengers: Secret Warscurrently does not have a director attached yet. As several speculations and rumors have come out regarding its director, there is one director duo that the audiences want for the epic showdown film.

The rumor is an unsubstantiated one and must be taken with a grain of salt. Marvel has not officially announced anything regarding this matter and this post is just one of the many rumors that are circulating on social media platforms.

The Russo Brothers are Unlikely, Since They Are Busy with Their Own Projects
TheRusso Brothershave been busy making projects for their production house AGBO since their departure from the MCU. They have produced and directed multiple projects under the company includingThe Gray Man, the twoExtractionfilms,Citadel,and the recent Oscar winnerEverything Everywhere All At Once. They are creating an interconnected universe like the MCU with futureCitadelprojects in different countries and are also directing the upcoming sci-fi adventure flickThe Electric Statestarring Millie Bobby Brown.
They have a lot going on with their studio productions that are in different stages of development. Hence, they might not have ample time to commit to a big and ambitious flick likeAvengers: Secret Wars. But they have expressed their desire to helm the project before. It seems fans have to wait for an official announcement from Marvel regarding the matter.
