The future of Marvel Television looks bright, as evidenced by a stunning new reel released on Wednesday. In the two-minute clip, Marvel released new footage from seven upcoming shows, several of which have never been seen before.
There is What if…? season three comes on December 22—then in 2025, Your Friendly Neighbor Spider-Man on January 25, Daredevil: Born Again on March 4, The heart June 24, Wakanda’s eyes on August 6, Awesome zombies in October, too Wonder Man to end the year in December.
And even though it’s a short preview, Marvel was sure to pack a lot into it. Here are 21 beautiful things we saw in the pictures.
Daredevil: Born Again
New suit (:26)– Every time the Man Without Fear appears in Marvel, he seems to get a new suit, and this time it is.
Mayor Fisk (:13, 1:34, 1:36)– As expected and mocked, especially in The EchoWilson Fisk (aka the Kingpin) is now the mayor of New York City.
The killer is back (:15, 1:37) – While the first part of the trailer has a brief shot of Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle, later we see him in his Punisher outfit.
The Muse (:09) – The video shows our first look at the villain Muse.
Yusuf Khan (:30)– The biggest Easter egg in the entire trailer is the appearance of Mr. Khan, who is Kamala’s father Ms. Marvel again Miracles. This is the guy who asks Matt about being a lawyer. Could his daughter play a role here?
Your Friendly Neighbor Spider-Man
The images here are very fast so the biggest takeaway is this unique spin (pun intended) on a Spider-Man staple — the home suit. (:36)
The heart
Han Solo’s Squad (:08)– Sorry, Alden Ehrenreich, you’re still young Han Solo to us. And in a quick shot at the beginning of the trailer, we see that Riri Williams brings him one of her weapons.
The hood (:10, :45)– The trailer has a few quick looks at the Hood, the show’s villain played by Anthony Ramos.
New weapons (:43, :47)– looks like Riri will have a few weapons The heart and the white one reminds us of another variant of Tony Stark Iron Man 3.
What if…? Season 3
Agent Coulson returns (:57) – Nick Fury leads a team, possibly traveling through the Bifrost, that includes everyone’s favorite agent, Coulson.
Avenger Voltron (:59) – The Captain America-themed mech gun appears in an episode where several Avengers pilot identical robots that all merge into one.
Cowboy Shang-Chi (:57) – It’s obvious, but it’s good that we finally see this hero come back as we patiently wait for his return to happen live.
Awesome zombies
Is that Blade? (1:02) – A man slices and dices zombies like Mahershala Ali in a Moon Knight costume. Is it Moon Knight? Is it a Blade? Is it someone else?
Various zombies (1:01)– A quick shot showing not only a zombie member of the Dora Milaje but also a possible Cull Obsidian?
Zombie Thanos (1:34) – The undead Thanos? What is more frightening than that?
Wakanda’s eyes
There’s not a ton we can get from the two quick shots other than its unique and beautiful animation style that will introduce many new Wakanda characters. (1:25)
Wonder Man
Meet Simon (1:07) – Here’s our first look at Simon (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) who not only auditions for Wonder Man, he becomes Wonder Man.
Trevor’s Back (1:19) – Ben Kingsley is back in the MCU, reprising his role as failed actor Trevor Slattery Iron Man 3 again Shang-Chi. Glad to see you are in show business.
Costume courtesy (:08) – An early shot in the trailers shows Simon wearing a red suit, which sounds like a reference to one of Simon’s unique comic outfits—his classic “safari jacket” introduced in the late 1970s.
But also –
There were two things in the trailer that totally blew us away. There is a picture of a person in front of what looks like a criminal investigation (:10) which we are not sure about. Is this from The heart? Wonder Man? Then there is the image above inside the TVA (:05). We can put almost all the pictures in this scene except the one in the middle below. It looks like Josh Gad in black and white. Any ideas?
