It was originally reported that we'd see Ms. Marvel and Hawkeye on Disney+ before 2021 was over, but it seems plans have changed following the news that the latter is taking aim at a November 24 premiere. Short of Ms. Marvel being crammed in between What If...? and Hawkeye, there's no room for it on the streaming service this year, so that has to mean a 2022 debut, right?
TV Line was recently asked that question in one of the site's "Inside Line" column, and Matt Webb Mitovich - a reliable source for TV news - shared the following insight.
"I asked around and it is very safe to assume at this point that Ms. Marvel is now on track for an early 2022 premiere," he reveals, pretty much confirming what we all expected.
While this news is going to disappoint fans, having these Marvel Studios TV shows hitting Disney+ one after the other in quick succession could result in some of them getting lost in the shuffle, especially when there are other big movies and series debuting on the streaming service on a regular basis (like The Book of Boba Fett, for example). Disney will also want to make sure that attention isn't pulled too much from Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Eternals ahead of their big screen debuts.
Going back to Ms. Marvel, an early 2022 premiere makes sense, especially with a November 2022 release planned for The Marvels.
Now, Kamala Khan will be fresh in the minds of fans heading into that sequel, and it means that Disney isn't cramming too much MCU content into the second half of 2021 (not that we'd complain).
