Original story follows.
Marvel has seemingly confirmed whenDeadpool and Wolverinewill arrive onDisney Plus– and unveiled its full TV show line-up for late 2024 and all of 2025.
As reported by numerous outlets including Discussing Film andThe Direct, a new Marvel trailer, which leaked online yesterday (October 29) and may officially arrive alongsideAgatha All Along’s final episode, revealed the comic book giant’s entire TV slate for the next 14 months. The teaser also confirmswhenDeadpool and Wolverinewill make its Disney Plus debut:Tuesday, November 12.
The sizzle reel leak comes less than 24 hours after I reportedMarvel was gearing up for a bumper year on Disney Plus in 2025, with up to seven new Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) shows set to land on the entertainment giant’s main streaming platform. Well, I was almost right, because one of those TV series –What If…?season 3 – will launch before the end of 2024. It’ll make its Disney Plus bow on December 22, but it’s unclear ifWhat If…?’s third and final season will release in full on that date, or ifnew episodes will release daily up likeWhat If…?season 2 did.
As for Marvel’s 2025 TV release schedule, here’s a quick rundown of when each series will premiere on Disney Plus:

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, which has a 3D cel shaded aesthetic, is a non-canonMCU animated series that’ll explore Peter Parker’s origin story and early days as the titular webslinger. As the footage reveals, it’ll introduce us to a number of classicSpider-Manallies and villains from the comics – some of whom, such as Amadeus Cho and Bentley Whittman/The Wingless Wizard, haven’t been seen before in a live-action or animated Spider-Man project.
On theDaredevil: Born Againfront, the leaked video treated us to 20 seconds of new footage from Matt Murdock’s standalone MCU series. The quick cut-style content showed, among other things, Murdock and arch nemesis Wilson Fisk meeting in an undisclosed cafe, Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle/The Punisher, and its terrifying villain in Muse. Numerous shots of the titular vigilante fighting various goons and more formidable foes, including Bullseye, who some readers will recognize fromDaredevil’s three-season run onNetflix, are shown, too.
Meanwhile, 15 seconds ofIronheartfootage can be seen in the trailer leak. Following her supporting role inBlack Panther: Wakanda Forever, Riri Williams has returned to her MIT studies and it seems she’ll be making a brand-newIron Man-inspired super suit in her spare time. We also get our first official look at Antony Ramos' The Hood, a magic wielder who’ll be theMarvel Phase 6show’s primary antagonist.

Speaking ofBlack Panther, the next animated series to debut afterYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Manwill beEyes of Wakanda. A four-part anthology, it comprises a collection of tales throughout Wakanda’s history and it appears to have an animation style we’ve not seen before from a Marvel production.
The Disney subsidiary’s final animated project of 2025 will beMarvel Zombies. A spin-off fromWhat If…?season 1 episode ‘What If… Zombies!?’, this four-part limited series will star Iman Vellani’s Kamala Khan/Ms Marvelas she leads Earth’s remaining superheroes in a last-ditch attempt to stop this universe’s zombie horde – which includes fallen heroes and villains, such asCaptain Americaand Thanos – among its number. Khan will be joined by the likes of Yelena Belova, Shang-Chi, Kate Bishop, and Blade, who’s seen wearingMoon Knight’s Khonshu costume. WithMarvel reportedly shelving its live-actionBladefilm indefinitely, this is the only Blade-centric content we’ll see for a while.
Lastly,Wonder Man, a Marvel Spotlight superhero comedy series co-developed byShang-Chidirector (and rumoredSpider-Man 4filmmaker) Daniel Destin Cretton, might be my most anticipated Marvel TV show outside ofBorn Again. Starring Yaya Abdul-Mateen II (Aquaman), it’ll follow an actor/stuntman named Simon Williams, who auditions to become the lead superhero in a new TV show. Little does he know, though, that he’s actually a superpowered individual. Ben Kingsley Trevor Slattery, who played small roles inIron Man 3andShang-Chi, will star alongside Abdul-Mateen II.
WithMarvel Phase 5filmsCaptain America: Brave New WorldandThunderbolts, plus Phase 6’s first movieThe Fantastic Four: First Steps, 2025 is going to be a packed year for Marvel. Indeed, 2021 was the last time that the comic titan released nine new productions in a calendar year – let’s hope we don’t all have superhero fatigue by the time December 2025 rolls around, eh?
