Marvel Studios’ most recent Disney+ series may have come to an end, but there are plenty of upcoming MCU TV shows in development.
Several new Marvel Cinematic Universe TV shows are currently in development. After the conclusion of the Infinity Saga and the inception of Disney+, Marvel Studios began to expand the MCU timeline even further by developing long-form shows for the new streaming platform. Marvel Studios’ Disney+ shows gave supporting and secondary characters from previous MCU projects their time in the spotlight, and have also been used to introduce smaller-scale heroes to the MCU, such as She-Hulk, Daredevil, Ms. Marvel, and Moon Knight.
While not all of Marvel Studios’ Disney+ series’ have garnered a positive response, projects such as WandaVision, Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, Hawkeye, and Loki quickly became some of the most popular installments in the entire MCU. Bob Iger may have promised that Disney would be pulling back on Marvel releases, and a change of strategy will reportedly see TV shows given more time in the planning stage, but there are still a number of MCU TV shows already confirmed.
11. Eyes Of Wakanda Is Set To Expand Wakanda’s On-Screen History
Black Panther’s Homeland Returns – Arriving 2024
A surprise addition to the MCU slate in December 2023, Eyes of Wakanda is an animated spinoff of the Black Panther movies, which will expand the lore of Wakanda. The official synopsis revealed by Marvel Studios reveals “Throughout Wakandan history, brave warriors have been tasked to travel the world retrieving dangerous vibranium artifacts. This is their story.”
That suggests the series could be a prequel, focusing on Wakandan “outreach” prior to T’Challa’s reign as king, with the Dora Milaje and previous Black Panthers operating to retrieve lost vibranium. Nothing is yet confirmed on the story, nor any cast members, but it’s an intriguing way to expand the rich potential of Wakandan lore.
10. Agatha Brings More Magic To The MCU
WandaVision’s Spin-Off Premieres Late 2024
After Kathryn Hahn’s debut as Salem witch Agatha Harkness in WandaVision, it was revealed that she would be returning in the series’ first spinoff, Agatha.

While Hahn will be the star of the show, Agatha: Darkhold Diaries’ cast also includes Aubrey Plaza, Joe Locke, Patti LuPone, Sasheer Zamata, and Ali Ahn, as well as several returning actors from WandaVision as the residents of Westview, New Jersey. Not much is yet known about the storyline for Agatha, but several new witches will be introduced to the MCU.

Riri Williams will become the superhero Ironheart in the self-titled series, and is expected to battle Anthony Ramos’ Parker Robbins, a.k.a. the Hood, in a feud between technology and magic. Ironheart will also star Alden Ehrenreich, Lyric Ross, Manny Montana, and drag queen Shea Couleé.

Cameo appearances in Spider-Man: No Way Home, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Hawkeye, and Echo have geared them up to come back in full force.
Daredevil: Born Again has recently been reworked following a series of problems, so a release date is yet to be set, but Cox and D’Onofrio will be joined by Jon Bernthal – returning as Frank Castle, a.k.a. the Punisher, Margarita Levieva, Sandrine Holt, Michael Gandolfini, and Nikki M. James, among several other MCU newcomers.

A New MCU Spider-Man Debuts In 2024
Produced by Marvel Studios Animation, Friendly NeighborhoodSpider-Man: (originally titled Spider-Man: Freshman Year) and its confirmed second season will explore an alternate version of Peter Parker in the MCU’s multiverse. The animated series will explore Peter Parker’s MCU origin story as Spider-Man from a different angle, seemingly retelling Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Charlie Cox is also expected to voice Matt Murdock’s Daredevil in the series, which will also introduce several iconic Spider-Man villains to the MCU, such as Rhino, Doctor Octopus, and Tarantula.
6. Marvel Zombies Is A Surprising Addition To Marvel’s Release Roster
The What If…? Spin-Off Reportedly Still Premieres In 2024
Marvel Zombies is an MCU spinoff from Marvel Studios’ What If…? season 1, episode 5, “What If… Zombies?!” The series is expected to release in 2024, and will be primarily based on the Marvel Zombies storylines in Marvel Comics, while several actors from the MCU are thought to be reprising their roles as their characters’ voices – much like they did for What If…?.
Marvel Zombies is expected to feature a new generation of heroes, including the likes of Shang-Chi, Yelena Belova, and Kate Bishop’s Hawkeye. Simu Liu is confirmed to return, along with Iman Vellani’s Kamala Khan, who is said to be one of the main characters.
Note: Marvel Zombies is a Marvel Comics series that began in 2005 and is still running today, currently spanning over 20 different comic titles.

Release Date TBC But Paul Bettany Says It’s In The Works

White Vision is the rebuilt version of the original Vision’s body, though his memories have been toyed with by SWORD. After WandaVision’s Vision appeared to restore White Vision’s memories, he vanished, and hasn’t yet been seen in any subsequent MCU project.
Not much is known about Vision Quest, other than Jac Schaeffer is the showrunner following her creation of WandaVision. The series is expected to debut in 2024-25, though this has yet to be confirmed.
4. What If…? Season 3 Could Appear Sooner Than Expected
The MCU Show Was Announced In January 2024
What If…? season 2 came as something of a surprise to audiences, with its release date of December 2023 being announced in November, and a third season being confirmed the month after the second season came out. Given this, it’s possible What If…? season 3 will also arrive in dramatic fashion, allowing audiences a further look at the multiversal stories that the show has provided thus far.
While season 2 provided a form of closure to the overarching story of the show, What If…? season 3 could likely still explore more about figures like Kahhori or Captain Carter. However, it coud dalso just as easily explore entirely new stories and interlink them in its own way, providing even more fresh ground for the series to cover.
3. Wonder Man Introduced An Iconic Marvel Superhero
The Unexpected Marvel Show Is Currently Filming
Following the successful release of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, director Destin Daniel Cretton signed a deal with Marvel Studios to work on further projects in the MCU. This includes Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, but Cretton also set to work developing a Wonder Man series, which will star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as the titular Simon Williams.
Wonder Man will also mark the return of Ben Kingsley’s Trevor Slattery from Iron Man 3 and Shang-Chi, while MCU newcomers Demetrius Grosse, Ed Harris, and Lauren Glazier have also been cast. The series was filming prior to 2023’s Hollywood strikes, and is expected to resume shortly.
2. An Untitled Wakanda Series Is Currently On Its Way
Another Black Panther Spin-Off Is In Development
Ryan Coogler has been applauded as the visionary director behind the MCU’s Black Panther franchise, and he is set to expand on the world of Wakanda even further with a dedicated Wakanda series, and a slew of rumored series set in Wakanda to follow. Danai Gurira has confirmed her involvement in the series as Okoye, the former General of the Dora Milaje and current Midnight Angel.
Coogler’s Wakanda series has been speculated to be an origin story for Okoye, though there is also talk that a separate Okoye-centered series is in development, so it remains to be seen exactly how Coogler will expand on his Black Panther franchise.
Okoye became a Midnight Angel, alongside Michaela Coel’s Aneka, after being stripped of her duty with the Dora Milaje during 2022’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
1. An Untitled Nova Series Could Finally Show Us A Major Missing Thanos Moment
The Next Cosmic Hero’s Debut Is Reportedly In Development
A series focusing on the Marvel Comics hero Richard Rider, a.k.a. Nova, has been in development at Marvel Studios since March 2022, with Sabir Pirzada hired to pen the script. The MCU’s Nova series has since become a victim of delays and behind the scenes issues at Marvel Studios, so not much is known about the upcoming series – which is also speculated to be a Special Presentation.
Although details are scarce, the series is expected to explore Thanos’ unseen attack on Xandar in Avengers: Infinity War, and will expand on the cosmic side of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in lieu of any confirmed future Guardians of the Galaxy stories.
