Marvel gets funding for ten more superhero movies

"Marvel said the 10 characters in the arrangement are Captain America, The Avengers, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Dr. Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack, and Shang-Chi. Each film is expected to have a budget of up to $165 million dollars and a rating no more restrictive than PG-13. Although the financing allows for the production of animated films, Marvel currently intends to use the funds to make only live-action films."
My only problem is that with the exception of X Men, it seems like every superhero film that I see has to re-tell the origin. That has to be in order to draw in a non-fan audience, but I'd rather see five good films and five good sequels.
