Marvel confirms release date for horrifying new Disney Plus series

As a seasoned gamer and Marvel enthusiast with over two decades of immersion into the vibrant world of comics and cinematic universes, I can confidently say that 2025 is shaping up to be an exhilarating year for fans like myself. After what felt like a brief interlude, the juggernaut that is Marvel Studios is poised to reclaim its throne next year with a thrilling lineup of films and series.

As the year comes to a close, Marvel Studios is setting the stage for an exciting lineup in 2025. Following a comparatively subdued release schedule this year – with only one blockbuster movie and three series on Disney Plus – the Marvel Cinematic Universe is ready to make its presence felt again next year. In 2025, we can expect three films from the franchise: “Captain America: New World Order,” “Thunderbolts,” and “The Fantastic Four: Initial Footsteps.” These upcoming titles will contribute to the continuation of the Multiverse Saga.

Of course, the narratives persist on our television screens as well, with upcoming shows like “Daredevil: Born Again“, “Ironheart“, and “Wonder Man“. The former has been eagerly awaited by fans for quite some time now, as they’re thrilled to witness Charlie Cox reprise his role as The Man Without Fear. Likewise, the release date for “Ironheart” has been a subject of anticipation for a while, making its arrival all the more exciting. Lastly, “Wonder Man” is expected to be one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s most intriguing and unique offerings.

Additionally, an engaging Marvel series scheduled for release next year has finally received its launch date, which was previously unknown.

Marvel Zombies gets fall 2025 release date

Disney officially announced that the eagerly anticipated animated series “Marvel Zombies” will premiere on Disney+ on October 3, 2025. Earlier, Marvel fans were only informed of an October 2025 release, with this title being one of the few on the Disney Plus calendar without a specific launch date. Now, it has been assigned a firm release date.

As a passionate fan, I can’t wait for Marvel Zombies to unfold! Just as its title hints, this upcoming project is set in a captivating alternate timeline where many of our beloved MCU characters have succumbed to the horrors of zombiehood. While it may not strictly adhere to the events of the live-action films, given its roots in the comic book series based on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it undeniably keeps us connected to the universe we all know and love.

Marvel confirms release date for horrifying new Disney Plus series

If it seems like another Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) animated series, that’s because it indeed is. “What If…?” was the very first animated series produced by Marvel Studios, exploring various alternate timelines and universes where the MCU events unfolded slightly differently. Intriguingly, the popular “Marvel Zombies” originated from an episode of this show’s inaugural season itself.

Imagine if… ‘What If… Zombies?!’ transformed the Marvel Cinematic Universe into a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by a quantum virus. This virus turned Hank Pym’s wife, Janet van Dyne, into a zombie upon her return from the Quantum Realm. Unfortunately, when Pym returned to the mainland, he inadvertently spread the virus, causing the swift demise of the core Avengers. Only a handful of heroes remained, including Spider-Man, The Wasp, The Winter Soldier, Bruce Banner, Black Panther, and others. However, cleaning up this zombie-infested world proved to be quite challenging for them.

The episode garnered varying opinions from critics, but fans were quite enthusiastic about the bold portrayal, which ultimately paved the way for Marvel Zombies to evolve into a standalone series. Therefore, in essence, this gritty show is a spin-off of What If…?, and it’s expected to push the Marvel Cinematic Universe further into more mature themes, as the four-episode event has been officially classified as TV-MA – making it the third MCU show to bear this rating.

For those who survive the zombie apocalypse in the Marvel universe, the terror continues. Witness this unfolding spectacle on Disney Plus starting October 3, 2025.
