Sounds Like We Might Be Waiting Longer Than Expected For The Disney+ Marvel Shows

We were hoping for an update on the Disney+ Marvel shows during Disney's Q3 Earnings Call, but CEO Bob Chapek would only confirm that work still needs to be completed on the likes of WandaVision and Loki.

Alarm bells sounded when The Falcon and the Winter Solider wasn't part of Disney+'s August schedule, and it's now been confirmed that the series - along with the other Marvel shows that had already started shooting - still need to complete production before they're ready for release on the streaming service.

Some had hoped that TFATWS, WandaVision and Loki might have been close enough to completion to begin a staggered roll out, but that was always a long-shot, and Disney CEO Bob Chapek confirmed that they all require additional filming during Disney's Q3 Earnings Call. We were recently led to believe that production had already resumed (or was close to resuming) on Falcon in Budapest, but we haven't had any updates since.

So, it sounds like we're going to be waiting even longer than expected to see these shows on Disney+. Chapek did add that he was "hopeful" that they'd be "coming shortly," but that's... not particularly encouraging. They do appear to be a priority, however, so depending on how smoothly filming goes in the current climate, we might still see at least some of them this fall.

We found out earlier tonight that Mulan would be heading to theaters and Disney+ (with a $30 price tag) in September, but there was no mention of Black Widow. If enough people fork out for Mulan and the COVID-19 situation doesn't improve before November, we can probably expect the Marvel movie to follow suit.

Calling it now, TFATWS won’t be released until March next year at the earliest.

I still think Falcon and Winter Soldier will release by the end of the year at the very least.

Just blame 2020 until it’s released

Man, I was hoping we'd at least get some shows this year (this isn't concrete confirmation of that, but still). Just holding out for Black Widow now.

This isn’t an exaggeration but I’m cancelling my subscription

I paid for the year but I’m not going to renew it 😟

@regularmovieguy - I don’t blame you. I can’t lie I had fun with smart guy and a few other shows in the beginning but it’s now my least used streaming service.

Literally nothing has been better watched in the last two months. The marvel shows were the only thing keeping I was waiting on. It’s over for it now. When is it over for you?

@MyCoolYoung

I loved the service for the first two months. Pretty much watched all I could within two months.

I think the subscription ends for me in November.

@MyCoolYoung - I have enjoyed quite a bit of the content. Mandalorian, Onward, Simpsons, MCU, etc, but with corona keeping me in the house I have pretty much burned through everything worth watching. Seriously thinking about canceling now as well. Maybe pic up again in a year.

@regularmovieguy - at least you'll have most of the shows when they drop. I'm cancelling and picking back up next year
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 8/4/2020, 5:33 PM
@Saintsinnister - that's exactly my plan. Whenever falcon and the winter soldier drops that's when I'll pick back up

Honestly they rushed to bring this streaming platform out. The lack of content is so noticeable.

@PantherKing - Yeah. I thought it was a bad idea to release it with only one franchise show instead of one for both MCU and SW, but hey, what do I know. They've already exceeded expectations with subscriber numbers.

@PantherKing - it's definitely more for kids for sure. Kids like to watch a lot of the same movies and shows which is heightened by covid
PantherKing

@MCUKnight11 - Yep if they had released it with Falcon and the winter soldier and the mandalorian it won’t have been bad. But out of their flagship franchises the Mandalorian season 1 is the only thing on there. And still they haven’t even shown anything for the mandalorian season 2.

@ThorArms - You’re right it’s more kid oriented. I just wish they had launched with more content rather than what they have now.

@PantherKing - To be fair who saw this virus coming? Starting in August we were supposed to get new content for the rest of the year and then this happened. It at least launched with one premium show, HBO Max didn’t even manage that.

@Jimster - Which team were you? My brothers and I each had one, and then we were all team Green Monkeys. But I was all about the Blue Barracudas.

@MosquitoFarmer - Hmm. I don't recall being affiliated with one team back then. Probably Red Jaguars because red's my favorite color.
