Thanks in large part to the double success of Hollywood in 2023, 2024 has been quite thin in terms of releases for Marvel Studios. But this is just as much the case in 2025.
In total, there are nine releases on the calendar for 2025, with 3 films and six series. This is not exactly a surprise, since in May Bob Iger revealed in Disney’s earnings call that they would reduce their annual film production to “two at most to three”.
Iger also predicted that there would be “about two TV series a year,” but it’s unclear when they will start. This resolution had the direct objective of “focusing more on quality”, according to the director general.
So here are the Marvel videos and series you can look forward to in 2025 and where they land lately on the calendar.
