Marvel Studios has made the decision to indefinitely postpone production for all of its Disney Plus content due to the pandemic outbreak of the coronavirus. Movies such as Fast 9, Mission: Impossible 7, No Time To Die, and more have all halted their productions in the wake of COVID-19 costing their productions millions of dollars due to their suspensions. This past week alone, large events in North America including NCAA’s March Madness, Coachella, and the NBA season have been temporarily canceled as well.

The Falcon & The Winter Soldier was the first Marvel x Disney Plus venture to shut down production due to being shot in Eastern Europe where Italy is struggling immensely to contain the virus. The cancellation of the Captain America-themed television series comes after Disney postponed production on the Marvel live-action film, Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. 

Disney has also halted production on films like The Last Duel, The Little Mermaid, Home Alone, Nightmare Alley, Peter Pan & Wendy, and Shrunk. Last month, Marvel and Disney released a slew of trailers for all of their upcoming Disney Plus content during Super Bowl LIV. Unfortunately, fans of the comic book universe and films will have to wait a little while longer while health concerns have arisen. 

Hopefully, the COVID-19 passes and allows corporations, businesses, and our lives to continue to operate as usual within the coming months. Check out the Marvel x Disney+ mega trailer for The Falcon & The Winter Soldier, WandaVision, and Loki, in the video provided below. 

During the Super Bowl LIV on Sunday, Marvel and Disney+ amped up the hype for their upcoming MCU TV shows, including The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Loki, and Black Widow. The streaming service aired a stacked trailer for the three former Marvel series dropping in 2020, showing brief clips from each of them in a 30-second mashup promo. They also aired a full-length, 2-minute trailer for Black Widow, whose release date of May 1st, 2020, had already been announced. However, details surrounding the release dates for the other three series remained vague. Though fans already knew that WandaVision‘s release date had been pushed up to 2020 ahead of the previously claimed 2021 time slot, there were hardly any specificities made until now.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company, Bob Iger, confirmed the release months for WandaVision and The Falcon and The Winter Soldier during the company’s Q1 FY20 Earnings call on Tuesday night. He announced that The Falcon and The Winter Soldier will land in August 2020, ahead of its previously believed fall 2020 window, while WandaVision will just make its promised 2020 arrival with a release date in December. While no specific details surrounding Loki‘s release date have been shared, it is still set to arrive at some point in 2021.

Following the events of Avengers: Endgame, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier will follow Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson (The Falcon), in possession of Captain America’s mantle, as he teams up with Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes (The Winter Soldier) to take on the world. Emily VanCamp will also reprise her role as Sharon Carter, as will Daniel Brühl as the villain, Zemo. WandaVision will explore the relationship between Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff (The Scarlet Witch) and Paul Bettany’s Vision as they navigate suburban life while suspecting that things are not quite as they seem.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is for all intents and purposes a golden goose, and damned if the eggs don’t keep coming. Not only has the franchise led to a slew of record-breaking films, but the arrival of Disney Plus has also brought upon a new wave of small-screen heroics. In 2020 alone, the Disney streaming service plans on bringing Loki, Wandavision, and The Falcon And The Winter Soldier into the mix, with all original actors returning to reprise their respective roles.

That includes Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan, who are all set to return as The Falcon and The Winter Soldier later this year. Though Disney has yet to reveal a release date outside of fall 2020, they have recently unveiled a new look at the upcoming series’ first official poster. As expected, Captain America’s presence runs deep. A silhouette of his shield provides the main backdrop, over which Falcon and Winter Soldier look appropriately badass. 

Check it out below, and sound off — are you excited to see this team-up unfold? 

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will touch down next year and shake up the MCU like never before. The multiverse itself is an unlimited number of alternate universes and was teased in Spider-Man: Far From Home. We already know that Scarlet Witch will be co-starring in the film with Doctor Strange, but now, Kevin Feige is claiming that some other heroes will join the madness as well. 

According to CinemaBlend, while speaking at New York Film Academy, Feige told fans that surprise heroes would play a role in the sequel film. “Sometimes you’re choosing the title hero, you’re choosing which main character or main team you want to bring to the screen,” he began.”Oftentimes, it’s as you’re making and developing the movie [asking] ‘Who will come into it?’ and ‘Who will fit into it?’ The next Doctor Strange film, for instance, features some new MCU characters that will be making their debut in that movie you won’t expect or won’t guess who it is, but we found a cool way to make it work because we want to make a particular type of movie there and there was a character we always wanted to do something with who will fit really well there.”

“The multiverse is the next step in the evolution of the MCU, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is gonna crack it wide open in ways that will have repercussions for a Disney+ series just before it, that’s not WandaVision, and for movies just after it in a big, fun way,” he continued. This has fans speculating about Spider-Man 3, which comes out just after Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The multi-verse can lead to Spider-Man leaving the MCU and joining his Sony pals such as Venom. We will have to wait and see.
