With reshoots ongoing on Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World, a ton of new set photos have been surfacing online over the past few days and the latest batch reveals star Anthony Mackie ("Sam Wilson/Captain America") suited up in his classic white-and-blue suit from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, essentially reaffirming that he'll be sporting multiple looks in the eagerly-awaited Marvel blockbuster.
As per a recent report, the additional photography isn't expected to be particularly extensive, and should conclude within another week or two. New action sequences were expected to be added, so based on what we're seeing in these photos, it looks like they might be shooting a new opening for the film, where Mackie sports his first Captain America suit.
He'll also wear a wingless blue-and-red suit in the film, something not too dissimilar from Steve Rogers' stealth suit, but it's not yet clear what...

Marvel is looking to a new Vision for its next TV offering.
The Vision character played by Paul Bettany will be at the center of the studio’s first new series order in some time. The untitled show is currently on track for a 2026 premiere on Disney+, with Star Trek: Picard’s Terry Matalas installed as showrunner. A writers room for the series opened this week.
Bettany will reprise his role as Vision, which spans three Marvel films and the WandaVision series (plus voice work on the three Iron Man movies as Jarvis, Tony Stark’s artificial intelligence creation). At the end of WandaVision, Vision’s physical body was brought back to life (with an all-white appearance), with no memories of his previous incarnation; his memories are restored by the spectral Vision Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) had conjured to manage her grief as she put a hex on the town of Westview,...

One of the problems with wanting to finally jump into enjoying a franchise is the homework. You have to know how this guy met that dude, why this fight has more emotional heft over another and on and on. And if the timeline itself jumps around and you’re trapped in different multiverses, it just adds to the complications. This is certainly the case with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has 30+ films and more than a dozen TV series in or planned for Phases Four and Five alone, making it quite the daunting task to try to catch up and understand everything that’s going on. But now Marvel is looking to make that a bit easier for viewers, ensuring they can make the leap into the franchise wherever they want.

Following X-Men '97's season 1 finale, What If...? season 3 is likely up next from Marvel Animation. Marvel Zombies updates have been few and far between, but Marvel Studios executive Brad Winderbaum has shared new Eyes of Wakanda and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man details.
The latter was unveiled during the San Diego Comic-Con in 2022, while news of the Black Panther spin-off came our way last December.
We've previously heard that the animated series will follow brave warriors tasked to travel the world retrieving dangerous Vibranium artefacts throughout Wakandan history. Thanks to ComicBook.com (via Toonado.com), we now have some specifics.
"Eyes of Wakanda is an MCU show," Winderbaum confirmed. "This is the history of Wakanda as told through the War Dogs, and it is some of the best animation we've ever done. Todd Harris is the creator of that one. That's just such a cool show."

Marvel Studios has drastically reduced its output since Bob Iger returned as Disney CEO, with the hope being to get back to quality over quantity. That's led to fewer TV shows on Disney+, but at least two more Marvel Animation titles will reportedly be released this year.
According to What's On Disney Plus (via Toonado.com), the streamer has sent out an updated 2024 slate which names Black Panther spin-off Eyes Of Wakanda and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (previously known as Spider-Man: Freshman Year) as being among the platform's 2024 offerings.
Other Marvel titles mentioned include Hit-Monkey season 2 (a Marvel Television leftover), Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, and Deadpool & Wolverine. Only Hit-Monkey has a confirmed launch date of July 15; the rest are currently undated.
It's interesting that Marvel Zombies isn't listed, as we'd expected that to hit in 2024 as well. It could be that no final decision has been made on the series,...

Bob Iger recently announced that the studio plans on reducing its creative output and that the fans can expect 2 or 3 movies per year in addition to 2 shows. This is a response to the catastrophic year that’s left Disney as the biggest box-office loser, having the most movies on the list.
The new release schedule is seemingly already kicking in, with ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ being the only movie to release this year. But this most likely has more to do with last year’s SAG-AFTRA strike than a change in direction.
New updated Disney schedule doesn’t reflect these changes however, as we still have plenty of Marvel content to look forward to. The first show to arrive on the streaming service is ‘Hit Monkey’ season 2, it arrives on Disney+ on July 15th. Even though it’s not under the MCU umbrella, the show has plenty of fans and it...

Bob Iger just revealed that the studio aims to cut back on its creative output. Fans can anticipate 2 or 3 movies per year, along with 2 shows. This decision follows a disastrous year for Disney, which landed them as the top box-office loser, with the most movies on the flop list.
The new release plan appears to be taking effect, with only ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ hitting screens this year. However, this is probably due more to last year’s SAG-AFTRA strike than a shift in strategy.
Despite the updates, the new Disney schedule still promises a wealth of Marvel content. Leading the charge is the arrival of ‘Hit Monkey’ season 2 on Disney+ on July 15th. While it may not fall under the MCU umbrella, the show boasts a dedicated fan base and is regarded as one of the top Marvel-based animated series at present.

The debut of Episode 8 of ‘X-Men ’97’ marked the commencement of its three-part finale, advancing the overarching narrative while also featuring a notable cameo. Christopher Barnes’ Spider-Man made a surprise appearance following Captain America, sparking fan speculation about the integration of ‘Spider-Man ’94’ into the continuity of the new ‘X-Men ’97.’
Previously, it was established that all Marvel Animated series, while not aligned with the MCU canon, belong to the broader Marvel Animated Multiverse. This categorization holds merit, given the significant disparities between the older and newer shows, offering a logical framework for their coexistence.
After Episode 8 aired, well-known industry insider Daniel Richtman asserted that ‘Spider-Man,’ ‘Iron Man,’ ‘Silver Surfer,’ ‘Fantastic Four,’ and ‘The Incredible Hulk’ all inhabit a shared universe.

The release of ‘X-Men ’97’ Episode 8 Started the three-part finale, and of course, advanced the overall story of the show, but it also included one notable cameo. After Captain America, Christopher Barnes’ Spider-Man showed up in the show, which prompted fans to conclude that ‘Spider-Man ’94’ is truly canon to the new ‘X-Men ’97.’
It was stated a while back that all Marvel Animated shows, despite not being canon to the MCU, are part of Marvel Animated Multiverse, and that definition is truly sensible and logical, since the older shows (and by extension new shows) contradict each other in quite a lot of ways.
Now following the release of episode 8, notable industry insider Daniel Richtman stated that ‘Spider-Man’, ‘Iron Man,’ ‘Silver Surfer,’ ‘Fantastic Four,’ and ‘The Incredible Hulk’ are all set within the same universe.

Spider-Man is making a comeback in the cinematic neighborhood soon. This time around, though, he is coming in animation, but the excitement about it is no less. Fans were convinced that Marvel’s 2024 would be a barren desert as the highly anticipated movie Deadpool 3 was the only project scheduled to be released, but luckily that does seem to be the case.
Tom Holland as Spider-Man
Marvel Animation’s Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man must be ringing a bell in the minds of those fans, who were eagerly waiting for the web-slinger to have his animated show. With Disney releasing the logo for the show, fans might wonder about the possibility of any original MCU character appearing in the show, especially since Tom Holland is reportedly not a part of the project.
The one Marvel character that could have made an appearance in the show is Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man.

2024 is bound to be a year of change, at least as far as Disney goes. After several big-budget MCU productions failed in 2023 and were met with a lukewarm reception, Bob Iger himself stated that they will definitely focus on quality over quantity in the future and will scale down their content production. We also know that there are over 20 MCU projects in development or rumored to be in development, and the Star Wars universe also has a full slate of upcoming shows & movies, most of them announced during the 2023 Star Wars Celebration event. Now in recent news, Disney+ confirmed several of those upcoming projects, and most of them are scheduled to be released in 2024 let’s see what they are:

In 2023, Marvel Studios faced challenges. The Multiverse Saga debut received a lukewarm response, and ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ fell short of expectations. ‘Secret Invasion,’ a highly anticipated live-action series about Skrulls, received poor reviews despite loosely adapting a beloved comic storyline. The lone success was ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3,’ overshadowed by the disappointing performance of ‘The Marvels,’ Marvel Studios’ lowest-grossing film to date.
Acknowledging ‘The Marvels’ failure, Bob Iger admitted to its shortcomings, emphasizing a shift toward quality over quantity. Despite occasional announcements of new projects, ranging from street-level heroes to cosmic tales, most upcoming endeavors are animated.
This shift isn’t accidental. According to Daniel Richtman’s sources within Marvel Studios, the future will prioritize animated content, with live-action productions taking a back seat, focusing on more grounded narratives, and becoming less frequent.

2023 wasn’t all that good for Marvel Studios. The start of the Multiverse Saga was met with a lukewarm reception and ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ failed to deliver projected results. ‘Secret Invasion’ a much-anticipated live-action show focusing on the Skrulls was met with horrific reviews despite loosely adapting a famous comic storyline. The only fully successful project released in 2023 was ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3,’ which was followed by the abysmal release of ‘The Marvels’ the lowest-grossing Marvel Studios film to date.

At a time when the Marvel Cinematic Universe feels more and more creatively stale, with the box office reflecting this, "Marvel's What If...?" is a breath of fresh air. The animated show offers writers and animators an opportunity to tell the kind of wildly creative stories that the McU's movies can't — both because they have to adhere to the Marvel formula and continuity, and because of budget constraints.
Though the first season was a bit formulaic, with most of the episodes following the plot of a previously-released Marvel movie (but with a little twist), the second season did a better job of exploring the infinite possibilities of the MCU multiverse. As Vanessa Armstrong wrote in her review for /Film, season 2 was "a zany, refreshing mix of stories."

‘What If…?’ brought a breath of fresh air to the MCU. Despite the initial mixed reception of the first season, its success led to the approval of additional seasons, expanding the multiverse by drawing inspiration from various notable storylines. The unconventional release of Season 2 unfolded over nine days, with each episode serving as a special holiday gift for fans. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige announced the development of the second season in December 2019; originally planned for 10 episodes, but due to Covid-19-related production delays, both seasons ultimately comprised nine episodes each.

‘What If…?’ was a breath of fresh air in the MCU; despite the first season of the show receiving a somewhat mixed reception from fans, it was successful enough to warrant additional seasons and expand the multiverse that the creators have been working on drawing loose inspiration from several notable storylines.
Season 2 was released in a somewhat unconventional manner over the course of nine days; a single episode was released, like a gift for fans to unwrap over the holiday season. In December 2019, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige announced the development of a second season for the animated series “What If…?,” consisting of 10 episodes. Due to Covid-19-related production delays during the first season, both the first and second seasons ended up having nine episodes each.

Bob Iger has publicly emphasized the need for Marvel Studios to prioritize quality over quantity, acknowledging a noticeable decline in fan interest and financial performance in the past year for Marvel projects.
However, in a surprising move, Marvel Studios appears to be leaning into animated content, with rumors circulating about multiple animated projects in various stages of development or production. According to reliable insider Daniel Richtman, there’s speculation that Kevin Feige, a respected figure in the industry, is showing interest in creating an animated movie set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Marvel has quite a few projects being either lined up for release or in development despite the historic SAG-AFTRA strike shuffling the schedule around. Bob Iger did come out to the public with a statement that Marvel Studios should focus more on quality than quantity since the drop in fans’ interest is evident, as it wasn’t really a good year for Marvel projects financially.
Despite this, it seems that Marvel Studios is embracing animated content since there are rumors of several animated projects being either in development or in production. According to Daniel Richtman, reputable leaker and scooper Kevin Feige is interested in making an animated movie set within the MCU.

The studio has been developing multiple series set in Wakanda with “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler, and a source tells Variety Coogler will also be involved in the forthcoming animated project. Coogler is currently under a multi-year overall TV deal with the Walt Disney Company through his Proximity Media banner.

At an event last night promoting the upcoming season of its What If…? series, Marvel revealed it has another animated show in the works that’s a spin on classic IP: Eyes of Wakanda.
The reveal was part of a surprise sizzle real presented by Marvel Studios head of streaming, television and animation Brad Winderbaum. Here’s the short logline: “Throughout Wakandan history, brave warriors have been tasked to travel the world retrieving dangerous vibranium artifacts. This is their story.”
One can imagine the possibilities, especially for the Dora Milaje, the elite group of warriors who serve as the all-female special forces of Wakanda who, in the films, are led by Danai Gurira’s Okoye.
Previously announced animated offerings X-Men ’97 and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (previously titled Spider-Man: Freshman Year) were also part of the lineup featured.
Attendees at the event reportedly saw two episodes from What If…? Season 2:

When Charlie Cox reprises Matt Murdock for the upcoming series Daredevil: Born Again, it will mark a welcome return. While Cox has played the character in small bits in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and Spider-Man: No Way Home, Born Again will no doubt be the proper return that fans want. But, like fans, Charlie Cox wasn’t so sure he would ever play Murdock / Daredevil ever again, figuring his stint ended when his namesake Netflix series did.
Appearing recently at Wales Comic Con (via GamesRadar), Charlie Cox said he assumed that once Daredevil was canceled, that was it. “I really thought that ship had sailed, you know? I thought it was over…It had been a couple of years since [Netflix’s Daredevil had been canceled]. What I didn’t know was there was an embargo on that. So, there was an amount of time – I think it was probably two years...

The first Marvel / Disney+ series WandaVision is getting a collector’s edition Blu-ray release tomorrow (you can order a copy Here) – and apparently a featurette that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the spin-off / follow-up Agatha: Darkhold Diaries (which was formerly known as Agatha: House of Harkness and then Agatha: Coven of Chaos) is included in the extras! Agatha isn’t expected to start streaming on the Disney+ service until the early fall of 2024 – possibly on September 19, 2024 – so this featurette gets the marketing started quite early.
Some fans have already received their WandaVision Blu-rays and decided to share the featurette on X:

New information is finally coming out regarding Marvel's next Spider-Man project, the animated series Spider-Man: Freshman Year, specifically about its cast of actors and their characters.
Freshman Year has been billed as an exploration of the character's origins, which were largely skipped over in the MCU after being well-established in previous live-action adaptations. Of note is the show's art style, which will be highly reminiscent of classic Spider-Man comics and cartoons.
Speculation has been rife in the years since the show's announcement, but now fans have a chance to put names (and voices) to faces with a new reveal.

The WandaVision spin-off / follow-up Agatha: Darkhold Diaries (which was formerly known as Agatha: House of Harkness and then Agatha: Coven of Chaos) isn’t expected to start streaming on the Disney+ service until the early fall of 2024 – possibly on September 19, 2024 – but a SPOILERy first episode plot synopsis has already surfaced online!
As shared by the folks at ComicBookMovie.com, the first episode of Agatha: Darkhold Diaries has the following synopsis, which was apparently found in a U.S. Copyright Office listing: In the first episode, we see Agatha finally break out of a spell she has been trapped in. She can’t wait to go back to her old murderous ways only to find that she is powerless. The only way forward for her is to embark on a perilous quest to get her powers back with the help of an unlikely friend or two.

The actor for Harry Osborn in Spider-Man: Freshman Year just got confirmed.
The McU's highly anticipated Spider-Man animated series was first announced in November of 2021. While the details behind its continuity were needlessly confusing at first, Marvel Studios eventually confirmed that the show would basically act as an elongated episode of What If...?, exploring a world where Norman Osborn was Peter's mentor instead of Tony Stark.
The show's cast of characters is interesting, to say the least. The first ten episodes will introduce the likes of Amadeus Cho, Nico Minuro, Doctor Strange, Daredevil, Rhino, Scorpion, and more.

Spider-Man: Freshman Year was announced all the way back in 2021, but fans still don't know much about the series at all.

But series head writer and executive producer Jeff Trammell stated in August that he is "excited for the world to see it," confirming that it is still on its way to Disney+.

Marvel Studios has an official name for Tom Holland's Spider-Man trilogy within the MCU.
This three-series Spidey story launched in 2017 with Spider-Man: Homecoming, followed by Far From Home in 2019, and the Multiversal No Way Home in 2021.
While Spider-Man 4 and the animated Spider-Man: Freshman Year series are reportedly in the works, Holland's silver screen trio stands as both a complete trilogy and a full story, and one that apparently warrants its own title.

Audiences have gone quite a while without a substantial update on Spider-Man: Freshman Year, but the Disney+ series‘ executive producer gave new word on its status.
Announced in 2021, Spider-Man: Freshman Year is one Marvel Studios animated project that fans don’t know a lot about. Although initially assumed by many to be set in the MCU, filling in gaps from Peter Parker’s story, the first concept art for the series quickly quashed those notions as it revealed a much more comic book-inspired take
The fact remains, though, that after bringing details on Freshman Year at San Diego Comic-Con 2022, Marvel has maintained radio silence on the show’s airdate, leaving some worried that it had been unceremoniously canceled, especially as Disney's top brass have signaled studio cutbacks.

It’s no secret that the MCU is in a state of flux. Even as movies such as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania continue to do well at the box office, a type of fatigue has set in, with people feeling a bit overwhelmed by the constant stream of new media and characters. Of course, everyone has their own opinions on the problems, from the introduction of too many lesser-known characters, to the loss of Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans, to the rushed visual effects in both the TV shows and movies.
Recently, Disney CEO Bob Iger offered his own take, even as he took care to avoid admitting that the MCU had a problem. “Do you need a third and a fourth [sequel], for instance, or is it time to turn to other characters?” Iger mused. “What we have to look at Marvel is...
