Last night during Disney's 2024 Upfronts presentation, we finally got release dates for Agatha All Along and Daredevil: Born Again, as well as confirmation that Ironheart will debut on Disney+ sometime in 2025.

New logos for the shows were also unveiled, and while teaser trailers were screened for those in attendance, they have not (and likely won't be) released online.

Different versions of the teasers are sure to be officially released before too long, but for now, we have a breakdown of the footage (via IGN).

The Born Again promo sees Matt Murdock don his familiar red costume, as his voiceover warns someone that the "entire system is against you... it's often David vs. Goliath." We then catch glimpses of Kingpin, Foggy Nelson, and Karen Page, and shots from a brief action sequence.

Right at the end, Murdock is asked, "what kind of a lawyer are you." He responds with, "a really good one," before putting on a broken pair of his signature tinted glasses.

The Ironheart teaser showed even less, with Riri Williams struggling to put her prototype armor together by stealing various parts from around her MIT campus, and then getting kicked out of the institute. The trailer concludes with "a couple of badass Ironheart suit shots."

Here is IGN's more detailed description of the Agatha All Along footage.

"It opened with Agatha Harkness not as the witch we saw in WandaVision, but as a detective struggling with a murder case. As she glances at a list of dates, next to October 13, a familar name appears: "W. Maximoff."

Aubrey Plaza's character appears after that, asking Agatha, "Is this really how you see yourself?" "That witch is gone, leaving you in a distorted spell," Plaza says. "Claw your way out." We then see Agatha snap out of it, saying, "She took every bit of power had. I can be that witch again."

What follows are a number of eerie, witchy sequences as Agatha vows to walk the Witch's Road and build her coven. Then, we get a quick look at Patti LuPone's character. "What witch in her right mind would join Agatha Harkness' coven?" LuPone says. Agatha gasps and responds, "I'm not looking for right-minded witches."

Joining Cox as Matt Murdock and Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk will be Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page) and Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson), who were not going to be a part of the new series originally. Jon Bernthal will also reprise his role as Frank Castle/The Punisher, along with Wilson Bethel as the villainous Bullseye.

Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva, Nikki M. James, Michael Gaston, Arty Froushan, Clark Johnson, Lou Taylor Pucci, and Hunter Doohan are also on board in supporting roles.

The Punisher writer Dario Scardapane is believed to have come aboard as the project's new showrunner, but that's yet to be made official.

Specific plot details are still under wraps, but we know that Born Again will see Matt Murdock/Daredevil face-off against his old nemesis the Kingpin, who we last saw rushing back to New York in the season finale of Echo. Fisk will likely be either running for mayor of NYC or already appointed to the position when the story gets underway.

Ironheart will continue the adventures of Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), who we first met in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

In the comics, Riri is encouraged to suit-up and fight crime by Tony Stark, who becomes a mentor of sorts to the young hero. Stark's death in Avengers: Endgame would obviously make that particular dynamic very difficult to replicate, but Ironheart is expected to carry on Iron Man's legacy (to some extent, at least).

As for the villains, Anthony Ramos (In The Heights, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) will play The Hood, and even though his casting still hasn't been officially announced, Sacha Baron Cohen (Sweeney Todd, Borat) is expected to make his MCU debut as Mephisto (unless he shows up in Agatha All Along first).

Fun fact: Davis was the lesser known brother of David that actually lost to Goliath hours prior to David defeating him.

Wow. Can't believe they're going full on with ironheart being a thief. Good to hear marvel still hasn't found their moral center.

Can't wait for the scene where she traps an entire prison in a giant avalanche. 🤣
