Alongside the currently announced lineup of new movie-quality shows coming to Disney+, Marvel Studios has announced four new shows that will explore new and returning heroes.
Samuel L. Jackson returns as Nick Fury alongside Ben Mendelsohn as Talos the Skrull in Secret Invasion. The show was teased at the end of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Far From Home and will presumably follow the comic story of the same name, with Skrulls invading the Marvel world right under everyone’s noses.
Ironheart, a newer Marvel character, makes her MCU debut in the new titular series. Riri Williams will be played by Dominique Thorne and create the most advanced suit the world has seen since the original Iron Man.
Don Cheadle returns as James Rhodes A.K.A. War Machine for the first time ever as a solo character in Armor Wars! A new threat rises using Tony Stark’s technology and Rhodes will have to face it.
A new series of shorts about Guardians of the Galaxy fan-favorite Baby Groot will explore his antics.
Last but most definitely not least is James Gunn’s live-action The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special! Set to rival the 1978 classic, Star Wars: The Holiday Special, James Gunn gets to write and direct a project he has been bugging Kevin Feige over for years. The special will hit Disney+ in 2022.
