Mearls hasn't been involved Ed with D&D for years.

I crit!
His title and position changed, sure, but I’m betting he was still involved.

Au cintraire mon ami, the original War of the Lance modules could easily fit in a 5E style hardcover:

Not according to what he said in the thread about Mike mearls games: since 2019, he was all Magic, and had no knowledge of D&D product development.
Edit: my point just being thst Mearls is not the end-all be-all of 5E D&D.

Mordenkainen and Elminster are Old School. I don't think they will get the focus of the actual storylines going forward. They will be honored in historical lore and efforts, like book titles. I think Wizards wants to branch out and make other Archmages more prominent. I also think the story will center on the Forgotten Realms, and they will not go with Elminster or Halaster. With that in mind...
I predict the Forgotten Realms archmage will be Laeral Silverhand, the current Open Lord of Waterdeep. She's a central figure surrounded by the Sword Coast storylines, and is a known meddler.
I think Tasha will be the Greyhawk archmage of the story. She's getting a lot of play recently, and the writers really need to add more to her redemption story, so that it eclipses her past villainy (being Iggwilv, the consort-peer to Graz'zt, and mother of the demon-spawn Iuz). She likely has good Vecna experience, as he originates in Greyhawk as well.
Not sure if there will be other archmages or other characters of power at the core of the effort to stop Vecna, but when the Heroes travel to other worlds, they may encounter local luminaries.

that is already a significant rework with a lot less battlemaps, room descriptions and everything that comes with that. So yeah, that could fit, but it would miss half the stuff that makes up the content of a 5e adventure. 3e came the closest (still sparsely illustrated compared to 5e), and that needed three 200+ page books... (with the last one being the largest at 300 pages)Au cintraire mon ami, the original War of the Lance modules could easily fit in a 5E style hardcover:

This is the Xak Tsaroth map of the Anniversary book, the description is 4.5 pages of text, no separate rooms, etc.
