The D23 Expo is here and Marvel certainly made their presence felt at the event. Let’s just say, for better or worse, we have a ton of new Marvel content coming to our screens over the next few years.
Disney+ will be the home of many Marvel TV shows, including The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Hawkeye, Loki, What If?, and WandaVision. You can add the likes of Moon Knight, She-Hulk, and Ms. Marvel to that list as the Marvel brand announced that these three properties would be receiving their own Disney+ series. There are some stating that these shows are apart of Phase 4 but, considering that the Disney+ lineup is absolutely stacked up until Hawkeye releases in Fall 2021, there is a chance that these new shows are going to be in Marvel’s Phase 5 Disney+ lineup instead.

Moon Knight and She-Hulk have been highly requested characters to be adapted in the MCU for years. In Moon Knight’s case, many thought the character would be an ideal fit for the Marvel Netflix TV universe alongside the likes of Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones. But, it wasn’t meant to be and now the Marvel Netflix universe is no more. The news of a Disney+ series revolving around Ms. Marvel, AKA Kamela Khan, was actually reported by THR earlier today. According to the THR article, Bisha K. Ali will act as the showrunner for the live-action series.

On top of all that, we also have more information about the upcoming What If? animated series. Here, we’ll see fun new directions on the Infinity Saga including Peggy Carter as Captain Britain, a new version of Star-Lord, and Steve Rodgers as a zombie.
