We have updates on a number of upcoming MCU TV shows, including Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, Daredevil: Born Again, and Ironheart. Unfortunately, it looks like we should brace ourselves for more delays...

A few months ago, Marvel Studios delayed most of its upcoming Disney+ offerings, suggesting the days of us getting as many as five TV shows or Special Presentations per year are now over. 

In fact, it looks like we'll be lucky to get even two a year, something which hasn't been helped by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. On the live-action side, for example, we only expect Echo and Agatha: Darkhold Diaries to hit the streaming service in 2024. 

More Marvel Studios listing on the U.S. Copyright Office has surfaced today, confirming the current planned premiere date for the WandaVision spin-off is September 19. With that news comes a synopsis for the premiere. 

"In the first episode, we see Agatha finally break out of a spell she has been trapped in," it reads. "She can’t wait to go back to her old murderous ways only to find that she is powerless. The only way forward for her is to embark on a perilous quest to get her powers back with the help of an unlikely friend or two."

That actually sounds like a great premise for the show and could explain why the villain - who has a habit of stealing powers - seeks out Billy Maximoff. 

Unfortunately, Marvel Studios now expects Daredevil: Born Again to premiere in January 2025. The show was in the middle of shooting when the strikes shut down production so, as disappointing as this is, it was perhaps to be expected. 

By far the biggest shocker is Ironheart being listed for an approximate September 2025 release. Set photos for the series started doing the rounds last August, so production on this one wrapped up a long time ago. Presumably, Marvel Studios is taking its time in order to get the VFX right and to launch the show in closer proximity to the Armor Wars movie. 

Going back to a quantity-over-quality approach when it comes to the MCU is no bad thing, though we're sure many of you will be left disappointed by these updates.

As always, keep checking back here for the latest on all these shows.

@OptimusCrime - fauck indeed!
JimMoriarty - 10/6/2023, 11:51 AM
@OptimusCrime - Agreed. This is ridiculous. I know they probably haven't finished it, however, the way they release these shows every weak. Why can't we get the first half, then mid season finale. Which, they ALLWAYS love to do?
harryba11zack - 10/6/2023, 10:46 AM
hopefully that gives them enough time to fire all their "current" writing team.
bkmeijer1 - 10/6/2023, 10:48 AM
At this rate there are gonna be a lot of shows being released in 2025-2027. Feels like every show and movie is delayed by atleast a year. So much for spreading it out I guess
DarthAlgar - 10/6/2023, 10:51 AM
Jeez, that's 10 years after the debut of the original Netflix series.
asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:48 PM
@DarthAlgar - And thus calling the series "Born Again" becomes a little more thematically appropriate.
BillyBatson1000 - 10/6/2023, 10:52 AM
Genneya Wilson reportedly cast as B.B. Ulrich. (Probably a 'daughter' thing over a gender-flip thing.)
asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:26 PM
@BillyBatson1000 - Or perhaps a gender-flipped version of Phil Ulrich - who in the comics became both a heroic Green Goblin and later on - briefly - took the mantle of the villainous Hobgoblin.

Then again, I just got the mental image of her getting meshed with Janice Lincoln from Superior Foes of Spider-Man and becoming the MCU incarnation of Beetle.
BillyBatson1000 - 10/6/2023, 5:39 PM
@asherman93 - Yeah, so a gender-flipped 'niece thing.'
DocSpock - 10/6/2023, 11:01 AM

Agatha, Ironheart, Armor Wars.

I couldn’t care less if any of these things never happened.

Just get Daredevil right.

MotherGooseUPus - 10/6/2023, 11:19 AM
@DocSpock - i'll drink to that sir, cuz i 100% agree
Alucard28 - 10/6/2023, 11:03 AM
I have to be honest... I'm losing interest in these Marvel shows.

newmutantsRETURNS - 10/6/2023, 11:07 AM
sounds like a snore fest.....pass
ReverseFlasher - 10/6/2023, 11:18 AM
“This sounds like a great premise”

… no, no it does not.
bobevanz - 10/6/2023, 11:24 AM
I wish they made Agatha so it would flop with 50 bucks, instead they'll hide the streaming numbers and pretend it's the greatest thing ever. Loki episode was pretty good, key He Quan is the best! I love him lol. Please people... skip the POS Exorcist requel. I'd watch Exorcist 2 a million times before ever seeing that shiznit again
WakandaTech - 10/6/2023, 11:26 AM
Whats one of the reasons the MCU continues to fail?


Giving a show to a character like Agatha

A show no one asked for

IT takes away time, resources and space to Marvel characters that people would rather see

Ghost Rider, Brother Voodoo, Elektra and many others

Oh well


JobinJ - 10/6/2023, 11:29 AM
@WakandaTech - exactly
Thanson - 10/6/2023, 11:33 AM
Your article should read "Going back to a quality-over-quantity approach". Pretty sure nobody would think that more is better when the results have not been received as well as Disney would like.
GarthRanzz - 10/6/2023, 11:33 AM
Franklin Richards babysitter gets a tv show before the Fantastic Four are even introduced....so weird.
Fogs - 10/6/2023, 11:35 AM
Here's a novel idea, how about quality AND quantity?

I’m only here for the Avocado at Law

Disney + has completely ruing the MCU

To many shows that no one wants to watch has resulted in to many movies no one wants to watch


asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:27 PM
@WakandaTech -
*looks at Loki, most of WandaVision, Ms. Marvel, and Moon Knight*
Sure... "ruined".
Izaizaiza - 10/6/2023, 11:44 AM
I'm kinda assuming that Echo and Daredevil are just going to be two seasons of the same storyline.
mountainman - 10/6/2023, 11:44 AM
The quirky side character neighbor lost her witch powers that we barely saw her with and needs to get them back? That sounds like exactly what Marvel should be focusing on right there!
AllsGood - 10/6/2023, 12:35 PM
Marvel Studios Daredevil has always been low on their list and no movies planned in the future.

asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:20 PM
@AllsGood -
"Marvel Studios Daredevil has always been low on their list and no movies planned in the future."
*looks at D'Onofrio!FisK and Cox!Matt getting re-introduced in 2021*
*looks at Daredevil being considered a highlight in She-Hulk*
*looks at DD and Kingpin featuring in the upcoming Echo*
*looks at Born Again getting more episodes than any of the Disney+ series and than any of the Netflix seasons, and bringing back Bernthal Punisher*

I'm not saying there's no reason for concern, nor that they can't [frick] it up... but it sure seems like Marvel Studios is pretty heavily invested in seeing Daredevil be good.
AllsGood - 10/7/2023, 9:19 AM
@asherman93 - You just proved my point even the Netflix shows low on Marvel Studios list.
Waifuslayer - 10/6/2023, 12:53 PM
No one is gonna give a shit about any of this by 2025.

The MCU dropped the ball post Endgame and lost all its momentum.

kylo0607 - 10/6/2023, 3:00 PM
@Waifuslayer - I have to agree.

The MCU peaked with Endgame and in a couple of months it will be 5 years since that film was released.
asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:15 PM
@kylo0607 - To be fair, Endgame was a culmination of over a decade's worth of movies.

We're not even at the half-way point with the current saga which started only a little under three years ago.
kylo0607 - 10/6/2023, 5:47 PM
@asherman93 - The Infinity Saga was still alteady much better developed, cohesive and better in quality by its 3 year mark, though.
asherman93 - 10/6/2023, 5:54 PM
@kylo0607 - Given its three-year mark was when Captain American Thor were released - I definitely recall a common refrain about them being that they were "just filler for Avengers" - and that Iron Man 2 got a rather lukewarm reception compared to the first film, I think you're wearing rose-colored glasses.

It also doesn't hurt to remember that Marvel Studios at the time didn't have to deal with a writers' strike, an actors' strike, or coming out of a pandemic.

So yeah, VERY different circumstances.

Its entirely possible that years from now, when the Multiverse Saga is concluded, the more divisive films and shows that came out will be looked at a lot differently.

Please give Daredevil a new costume. His costume is terrible
