The New Marvel Shows on Disney’s Streaming Service Will Be Part of the MCU
Any Marvel show heading to Disney‘s upcoming streaming platform, Disney+, will be entirely integrated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed to ComicBook.
“These will be Marvel Studios productions,” Feige revealed, stating the studio will control all forthcoming projects arriving on Disney+. “They will be entirely interwoven with both the current MCU, the past MCU, and the future of the MCU.”
In other words, the new shows won’t be somewhat disconnected from the wider MCU, à la Netflix’s Daredevil, The Punisher, and Jessica Jones. Rather, they will further the narratives explored in Marvel’s movie franchises.
A show about Loki is slated to be one of the new Disney+ shows, for example. It’ll see Tom Hiddleston reprise his role as Thor’s brother and general cosmic menace. A TV series featuring Vision and Scarlet Witch — portrayed by Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen respectively — is also confirmed.
That’s it for show announcements for now, however. As Feige stated in his interview, “We aren’t going to announce anything until post-Avengers: Endgame or Spider-Man: Far From Home.”
