"Marvel on Disney+" Pre-Release News & Discussion, Part 8 (Spoilers)

^Cool. Good amount of spacing between the 2 shows.

A description of the Agatha footage shown. And of the Daredevil footage shown.

A Blonde Phantom series is rumored to be in development and it might be Johanssen's project.

Born Again is 9 episodes.

I thought we would get Agatha cycling through various TV genre's but collecting a coven to get her powers back works too .

I hope Blonde Phantom is a period piece with a comic-accurate costume .

I'm a bit surprised there's nothing announced for this summer, X-Men '97 ends this week and Agatha is in September. On the other hand Disney+ will have some Star Wars stuff in June and I'm not complaining there won't be anything to watch.

I admit I am not that familiar with the character but Blonde Phantom seems interesting. It would be a nice change of pace to have another Golden Age show (I think Agent Carter might have been the last for Marvel?). Then they could always follow up on it by brining her into a new season of She-Hulk.

Maybe Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man ?

We deserve more pulp-y Superhero shows .

It's possible. Unless I missed it they didn't have any animation related news at the presentation. Which is kind of the first thing you'd expect to hear about from a Disney upfront.

For Marvel, the upfront was pretty good. I wasn't expecting new projects to be announced anyway, just premiere dates for stuff we knew was on the way so that worked out well.

Could be a result of the shift in strategy. Star Wars will have Acolyte running and they don't want any overlap with a Marvel title and for Marvel Studios they just want to focus on Deadpool & Wolverine in the summer.

I forgot there's also season 2 of Hit-Monkey (the last remnant of the Marvel/Hulu projects) set for July.

Presumably they will set this in the 50s, they could totally match the noir/pulp detective vibes of the comics. I'd be done for that. As well as flesh out a hardly explored decade of the MCU.

Hype for Daredevil but Agatha and IronHeart… nah

 

[Yojimbo]

Interesting they brought back the Marvel Television logo. Likely another decision made like the Born Again revamp.

Comments from DD stuff yesterday.

An insider claims Hawkeye season 2 has been greenlit, Clint's brother, Barney, will play a major role, and the season will be inspired by The Raid, with Kate and Clint stuck in one location.

That makes sense considering Barney had a role in the second half of the Fraction Hawkeye run.
Hopefully, this means we can finally learn about the history of his relationship with his wife.

I'd love to see Barney and actually exploring Clints' background instead of it being exclusively Kate's .

If we do get a second season I hope they scale things back, bring back her season 1 costume (and mask), and have her actually fight one of her villains .

I think this is the first confirmation Wonder Man is under Spotlight. Which makes sense.

She would look fantastic in a red dress .

Maybe even give her a chance to perform on a stage like a chanteuse .

Makes me wonder what the content level will be like...

The (currently untitled) Vision series will be in 2026 and Terry Matalas is the showrunner.

Hoping it turns out well .

That's a really good get. I've seen some of his 12 Monkeys and Picard. Vision would definitely be in his wheelhouse. Jac Schaeffer is no longer involved I guess.
