It has been a while since the MCU really felt like a cohesive place, but Marvel’s new slate of upcoming Disney Plus shows makes it seem like the studio is ready to tighten things up.
Ahead of Agatha All Along’s season 1 finale tonight, Marvel shared a new sizzle reel highlighting all of its upcoming projects that will carry the MCU into its Sixth Phase. After Agatha All Along and Deadpool & Wolverine (which starts streaming on November 12th), the third and final season of What If…? is set to premiere on December 22nd. Jeff Trammell’s animated Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man series will debut the following month on January 29th, and introduce a new take on Peter Parker (Hudson Thames). On March 4th, Daredevil Born Again begins with a new story in the MCU centered around Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), Vincent Fisk / Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio), and Frank Castle / Punisher (Jon Bernthal).
Later that summer, Ironheart starring Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams (who appeared in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever) will debut on June 24th. And the Black Panther spinoff miniseries Eyes of Wakanda premieres on August 6th. Marvel Zombies, another Marvel Animation-produced spinoff, hits Disney Plus some time in October. But in December, Marvel’s closing out the year with its live-action Wonder Man project starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams and Ben Kingsley as Trevor Slattery.
Curiously absent from the sizzle reel is any mention of X-Men ‘97’s second season, but that probably means we can expect to see it some time in 2026 along with the new Vision-centric show.
