Marvel Tv Series Gets Its Commercial During The Super Bowl

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney+

What an awesome time to be a Marvel fan! Disney+ just ran a preview during the Super Bowl game of all of the incredible Marvel projects coming to the streaming network and we’ve never been more excited. 

Let’s take a look: 

The Falcon and the Winter Solider

Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan, reprise their roles in ’ ”The Falcon and The Winter Soldier,” which finds Falcon and the Winter Soldier teaming up after “Avengers: Endgame.” Emily VanCamp will also return to her role as Sharon Carter. Rounding out the cast is Wyatt Russell who will play John Walker—a character from the comics coming to the screen for the first time. “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier” will launch on Disney+ in Fall 2020.

WandaVision

Does this show look awesome or what!? For us, the WandaVision segments were the standout moments of the clip above and have us really excited for the show which is set to debut on Disney+ in the Spring of 2021. During D23 last August, Randall Park, playing the role of Jimmy  Woo called the upcoming show “something totally fresh and weird!”  Kevin Feige echoed this last year saying that the concept would only work as a series and not a movie. Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany will be back in their roles as Scarlet Witch and Vision and it’s even been said that Kat Dennings will be reprising her role as Darcy from Thor in the series!

Loki

Earlier this week we announced that pre-production had already started on the Disney+ series Loki which will see Tom Hiddleston resuming his role as the title character. Disney and Marvel are being tight-lipped about plot details for the series but it’s expected to follow the incarnation of Loki from the alternate 2012 timeline that escaped with the Tesseract during the events of Avengers: Endgame.  Time travel is expected to factor heavily in the series with the Asgardian God of Mischief visiting key historical events throughout the MCU. It a was also announced this week that Owen Wilson has signed on for (an as yet unnamed) role in the series.

New Details About Marvel TV Series On Disney+

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney+

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding to Disney+, and at the D23 Expo, we got some more details about some of the shows that are coming to the new streaming service.

“What If…?” is the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first animated series, showing what would’ve happened if key events in the MCU had gone differently. And sure enough, a lot of your favorite stars from the MCU are coming back to reprise their characters, including Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Paul Rudd, Hayley Atwell, Chadwick Boseman, Samuel L. Jackson, Josh Brolin, and more.

Here’s one scenario that was discussed: What if Steve Rogers didn’t get the super-soldier serum that made him Captain America, and instead it went to Peggy Carter?

We also learned slightly more about “Loki,” the series starring Tom Hiddleston in his beloved role from the MCU. The series will be six hours long, though we don’t know how many episodes that will be broken up over. “Loki” premieres on Disney+ in Spring 2021.

A little bit more was declassified about “The Falcon and the Winter Solder,” which sees Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, and Daniel Brühl reprise their roles as Sam Wilson, Bucky Barnes, and Helmut Zemo. “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” will focus not only on these characters’ pasts, but their lives in the aftermath of Avengers: Endgame. Emily VanCamp will also reprise her role as Sharon Carter, aka Agent 13, as seen in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War. A new character will also emerge named John Walker, though we learned nothing more about them. “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” premieres on Disney+ starting Fall 2020.

And finally, the last TV series mentioned was “WandaVision.” “WandaVision” stars Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany reprising their roles as Wanda Maximoff (aka Scarlet Witch) and the Vision, respectively. The show will be a half-classic sitcom, half-MCU adventure, evoking the style of television of the 50’s and 60’s. Shooting hasn’t begun yet on the series, but we learned more about casting, as there are more MCU characters joining the series, including Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis (Thor, Thor: The Dark World) and Randall Park as Jimmy Woo (Ant-Man and the Wasp). Kathryn Hahn will also be joining the show as a nosy neighbor. “WandaVision” premieres on Disney+ in Spring 2021.

Awesome Update – Disney Plus Launch Date and Price Released

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney+

Thursday evening brought some major news on Disney’s new streaming service, Disney Plus. Just 24 hrs earlier, reports began coming out that this new rival to Netflix would be launched in November of this year and some of the possible content on that new service.

Thursday evening, those rumors were put to rest as Disney not only announced the launch date but also the price and some of the new content that will be coming soon.

Disney+ will officially launch November 12th, 2019 and will cost $6.99 a month. This was all announced at Disney’s 2019 Investor Day in California.

When it launches, Disney+ will include 7,500 episodes of current and off-air TV shows; 25 original series and 10 original movies and specials; 400 library movie titles; and 100 recent theatrical films release, according to Agnes Chu, senior VP of content, Disney+.

It will be available on virtually any platform and will also be ad-free.

Disney+ will be the home for new releases from Walt Disney Studios, Pixar, Lucasfilm and Marvel beginning with the 2019 lineup, which includes “Captain Marvel,” “Toy Story 4,”  “Dumbo,” “Avengers: Endgame,” “Frozen II,” the live-action remakes of “Aladdin” and “The Lion King,” “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil,” and “Star Wars: Episode IX.” It also features a lineup of original series and films.

It will also offer movies from Disney’s video library including all of the Star Wars films, content from NatGeo, and hundreds of episodes from Disney channel shows.

Maybe the most exciting part of this new service will be its brand new original content. Some of the programming that Disney is ramping up includes “The Mandalorian”; a prequel to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”; the next season of Star Wars animated series “Clone Wars”; and a new series based on Pixar’s “Monsters Inc.” called “Monsters at Work.”

In addition, Disney+ is set to get several Marvel live-action series, including one centering on Loki (starring Tom Hiddleston); “WandaVision,” with Elizabeth Olsen returning as Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany reprising his role as The Vision; and “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” starring Anthony Mackie as Falcon and Sebastian Stan as Winter Soldier. In addition, shows are in the works featuring Scarlet Witch, played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Hawkeye, with Jeremy Renner set to reprise the role.

They will also debut new nonfiction series and behind-the-scenes looks at some of the latest in Disney movie making.

With Disney now owning a majority stake in the popular streaming service Hulu, they are looking at launching 3 separate streaming services in Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu. While not confirmed at this meeting, there is the thought out there that Disney could bundle these services together.

I don’t about anyone else but with a price tag of $6.99 and 3 young children, this will more than likely be a must in our household. It seems Disney has taken a shot at its main rival in Netflix (even as Netflix has a price hike going into effect next month).
