Untitled Vision Series

WHAT IT'S ABOUT: The Paul Bettany-led series (rumored but not confirmed to the titled Vision Quest) will take place after the events of 2021's WandaVision, our sister site Variety reported, as White Vision "presumably explores his new purpose in life." Terry Matalas (Star Trek: Picard) will serve as showrunner.

CONFIRMED CAST: Paul Bettany, James Spader (again voicing Ultron, from the second Avengers film), Faran Tahir (reprising his Iron Man role as Raza)

RUMORED CAST: Todd Stashwick (Star Trek: Picard) and Ruaridh Mollica (The Franchise)

PREMIERE DATE: 2026 

The Punisher

Following his appearance in the first season of the Daredevil: Born Again, Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle aka The Punisher will headline a Marvel Studios' Special Presentation à la Werewolf by Night and The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special.

"It's like a shotgun blast of a story," Marvel Television chief Brad Winderbaum told EW.com, "but also has all the pathos and emotion that you want out of a Frank Castle story."

Bernthal is penning the standalone special's script with director Reinaldo Marcus Green (whom he worked with on HBO's We Own This City).

Armor Wars

WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Based on the comic series of the same name, the show follows James Rhodes, aka War Machine, who must "face what happens when Tony Stark's tech falls into the wrong hands." It was said at the September 2022 D23 that Rhodey fans will "see the character in a whole new light" and can look forward to all-new suits for the hero, featuring different types of armor.

STATUS: After Armor Wars was noticeably MIA from Marvel's announcements at the summer 2022 Comic-Con, writer Yassir Lester assured on Instagram, "I promise it is still coming out." At D23 that September, Disney confirmed it's absolutely still on the calendar.

In September 2022, it was reported that Armor Wars was being redeveloped as a film, as Marvel execs realized the project (and the requisite visual effects) would be better served by a feature. But when TVLine spoke with series lead Cheadle in October 2024, he was "not sure where anything is right now," quipping, "You can find out and let me know."

CONFIRMED CAST: Don Cheadle (James Rhodes/War Machine)

RUMORED CAST: Walton Goggins (as Ant-Man and the Wasp villain Sonny Burch)

Will There Be More Agatha All Along, Moon Knight, She-Hulk, Loki , Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye or Echo?

Simply said, there is nothing close to official word on further seasons of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Moon Knight, Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel, Echo or Agatha All Along.

Ms. Marvel aka Khamala Khan (played by Iman Vellani) and Hawkeye's Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld) seem destined for big-screen adventures, given the events of the November 2023 film The Marvels.

Loki EP Kevin Wright told TVLine after a Season 2 finale that seemed to commit the titular trickster into a certain fate, "I've loved working with this team... I would love to keep telling those stories with them, in this world." But, "I don't think any of us would ever want to rush into a Season 3 if there's not a good story to tell."

Speculation about more Moon Knight is largely fueled only by the fact that the Blu-ray release is titled Moon Knight: The Complete First Season (emphasis ours).

Tatiana Maslany in essence told She-Hulk fans that the sun's getting real low, when on a Twitch game show she said of Season 2 prospects, "I don't think so," adding: "I think we blew our budget, and Disney was like, 'No thanks!'"

Echo dropped in January 2024, with a finale that was more interested in teasing Wilson Fisk's future (as mayor of New York City) than the titular Indigenous hero's.

As for Agatha All Along, though Patti Lupone famously quoted showrunner Jac Schaeffer as saying, "I don't do second seasons" per se, Marvel Television chief Brad Winderbaum said in February 2025 that "a second season for sure is something that we would want to do, but let's not rush it. Let's get the right idea and then make it."

 

Cancelled/Paused Projects

Back in May 2021, it was first hinted that Danai Gurira would reprise her Black Panther franchise role as Dora Milaje general Okoye in an "origin spinoff series." In January 2023, Gurira told Late Show's Stephen Colbert, "I've been told... I can gentle allude... to the possibility" of a spinoff series, but in February 2025 Marvel Television chief Brad Winderbaum made clear that while " fans of Okoye are going to be excited to see her come back... I don't think it's going to be on a television show."

Similarly, Deadline reported via sources in February 2025 that development had been paused on Nova (from Sabir Pirzada and following the last survivor of the Nova Corps), Strange Academy (an adaptation of the comic book series, though with MCU vet Benedict Wong's Wong leading the way) and Terror, Inc. (about the titular anti-hero).

Though the firehose of Marvel TV series that nearly drowned us from 2021-23 has been throttled, the MCU is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

On the TV front, there is a lot of content on tap, including the lonnnnng-awaited Daredevil: Born Again revival-of-sorts starring Marvel vets Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio.

To help keep track of the comic giant's TV slate on Disney+, we've rounded up the latest information including premiere dates, casting news and filming updates. (This list focuses on Marvel's live-action offerings, so animated fare such as X-Men '97 and Marvel Zombies is not included.)

See below for intel on shows like the Wakanda Forever offshoot Ironheart, the Vision-centric WandaVision sequel and more.
