Marvel Reveals for Disney + Day

Published

on

Marvel Studios’ 2021 Disney + Day Special is now streaming.

Happy Disney + Day!, the streaming service celebrated its second anniversary by giving fans like myself a look at new upcoming titles and that includes some right out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Disney are putting a lot of investments into the future of its streaming service and that certainly enables the MCU to expand with a grand total of twelve new titles, some previously announced, ones with new looks and logos and even a few surprises.

Luckily I kept track of all the announcements for Disney + Day, so if you’ve missed anything you’r more than welcome to visit my twitter thread dedicated to this day full of news, images and clips straight from the House of House.

X-MEN ’97

MARVEL

The first Marvel announcement of the day was definitely a nostalgic one as the beloved 1997 animated X-Men series is making a comeback as X-MEN ’97 will arrive on the service in 2023

The animated series from Marvel Studios explores new stories in the iconic 90s timeline of the original series. Written by Executive Producer Beau DeMayo.
