12 Upcoming Marvel MCU Shows on Disney+ You NEED to See!

Marvel's Next Big Thing: 12 Upcoming MCU Shows You Won't Want to Miss!

Beyond Agatha: Marvel's Packed Lineup of Upcoming MCU Shows

Agatha: Coven of Chaos might be the latest MCU show to hit Disney+, but hold onto your hats, because there are tons more Marvel Cinematic Universe shows coming! The end of the Infinity Saga and the rise of Disney+ saw Marvel go full throttle into long-form storytelling.  This allowed many support characters a chance to shine (like She-Hulk, Daredevil, Ms. Marvel, and Moon Knight) And guess what? This strategy is continuing even beyond those early shows! We’re talking about 12 shows already confirmed. This was after those various initial difficulties.

Some of those earlier Disney+ series were divisive; however others (WandaVisionMs. MarvelMoon KnightHawkeye, and Loki) became some of the most beloved parts of the whole MCU; however, it is clear there have been changes recently, which are only hinted at; and it might slow things down a little—as Bob Iger hinted there'd be a bit of a slowdown from Marvel overall, meaning these productions will get far more attention during that development phase. This could actually prove to be beneficial to ensure those key qualities; however, it's noteworthy to consider those various factors and expectations that need careful consideration. Despite these announcements there remain some major shows that fans should still anticipate!

12. Eyes of Wakanda: A Vibranium-Fueled Animated Adventure

Announced in December 2023, this animated series expands Wakanda’s lore! This is especially amazing after the huge popularity and significance of the Black Panther movies. Marvel says it tells “the story of brave Wakandan warriors throughout history collecting vibranium artifacts”. It's not yet clear exactly when and where the events will happen in the overall Wakanda storyline, although this animated version is speculated to become something more than just a single season, based upon its enormous amount of production budget. Could it be a prequel?

Oh yeah and a plotline featuring a key moment where it seems  Tom Holland's Spider-Man also appears in the form of a cameo which surprised a large part of those audiences who anticipated this release;  with Hudson Thames voicing this Peter Parker—it totally revolves around Norman Osborn being that much-important mentor for him rather than Tony Stark!

This one is massive: it has been heavily implied already this animated character would eventually become a new movie adaptation that would include the legendary Nicolas Cage. This Amazon Prime series puts Nicolas Cage in the Spider-Man Noir role—returning to live-action comics work, even revisiting characters which show his talents. But is this merely more than just bringing the original characters? That remains an unanswered yet incredibly engaging question that further adds hype surrounding this new release, especially concerning the unexpected possibilities presented by using live action for these specific, previously only-seen animated characters.
