Marvel Phase 5 & 6 drops release dates for major TV shows + sizzle reel leak?

Last Updated on November 1, 2024

When a studio promises that it’s gonna get good, they better deliver. And Marvel looks like they’re doing just that, releasing a reel (that seems to be a bit of an early leak – although it’s everywhere) teasing their upcoming wealth of TV show releases. And yes, it’s looking good.

In the reel, Marvel showcases Daredevil: Born Again, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Ironheart, What If…? Marvel Zombies, Wonder Man, and Eyes of Wakanda. Not only does the video highlight characters and some of the action and excitement we can expect to see but also gives us some release dates that we didn’t yet know.

As for when we can expect this slate of shows to drop from Marvel, season three of What If…? drops at the end of the calendar year on December 22nd while animated series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man will kick off the new year on January 25th. March 4th will see Daredevil Born Again (one of the dates we previously knew), while we’ll have to wait quite some time for the others.

The next one to arrive will be Ironheart on June 24th, helping conclude Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s shows. Kicking off Phase Six will be Black Panther spin-off Eyes of Wakanda on August 6th, with Marvel Zombies appropriately enough dropping in October and Wonder Man wrapping up the year in December. Unfortunately – albeit expectedly – no release date was given for the Vision TV show, no doubt one of the most highly anticipated TV projects from Marvel. However, we do know that it will begin filming next year.

While we have to wait to see just how Marvel develop their films for the big screen, their shows look like they’ll be offering fans of all kinds something to look forward to. Personally, I’m in for Daredevil Born Again and have a curiosity to see where Eyes of Wakanda can take the storylines, while I can kind of see the niche appeal of Marvel Zombies (although it does sort of feel like those old-school Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures that put them in non-canon scenarios like sports players and monsters).

Which upcoming Marvel show are you most looking forward to? Which do you expect to be canceled first?
