Joss Whedon said Avengers 3 would be the last act. Besides, Thanos Imperative, Thanos is going to be villain in that one and isn't that kinda "grand finale" material? ...still, he probably survives even if they do defeat him, so there could be more.

Unless Thanos Imperative (or whatever Avengers 3 is called) is in 2021, but it wouldn't be, because there's two films released each year. 2013 was Iron Man 3 and Thor 2. 2014 is Captain America 2 and Guardians. 2015 is Age of Ultron and Ant-Man. 2016 will be Captain America 2 and the third Phase 3 film. 2017 will be the fourth and fifth, and 2018 will be the sixth and seventh which is Thanos Imperative. Unless they become real procrastinators like Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe and the others were 21 at the time when Harry Potter is 17, I bet they didn't have to do much to make them look 36 in the epilogue, the real challenge was probably making them look 17
