“But I honestly don’t know. I don’t know what their plans are. I know they’re going into a kind of Phase 5,” Kit Harington added. Though this doesn’t clarify what the future holds for Kit’s Black Knight, we do know that MCU has planned a whole new roster for the upcoming Phases. It was recently announced that Phases 5 and 6 are happening. Details are yet to be revealed, but there could be a movie or a series on Kit’s character.
