All the New Marvel Trailers: Loki, Falcon & Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Ms. Marvel!

The big Disney investor summit took place tonight and they dropped so much info about upcoming Disney projects that I am not equipped to handle it all! But what I can do is share a bunch of awesome trailers that were released online Thursday night! And they are some great trailers! Disney and Marvel are sparing no expense!

Not for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

It arrives on March 19.

Not for WandaVision.

That’s coming on Jan. 15.

We get our first look at the Loki show.

That’s coming in the fall of 2021.

We even got our first ever footage of the Ms. Marvel show! Holy cow!

That thing has barely begun filming, so I’m so excited to see even a little footage! We also heard that Kamala Khan is already planned to jump into the Captain Marvel 2 movie when that comes around!

Then here’s a big look at the What If…? series, coming in the summer.

And in just general news, we had the Fantastic Four movie confirmed for sure, complete with initial logo. And Jon Watts, the director of the MCU Spider-Man movies, will direct the Fantastic Four movie.

Further on in TV news, Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn (Talos the Skrull) will star in a Secret Invasion TV show. Don Cheadle will return as War Machine in an Armor Wars show, wherein bad guys get their hands on Iron Man technology. Dominique Thorne has been cast as Riri Williams in an Ironheart TV show. Tatiana Maslany has been confirmed as Jennifer Walters in a She-Hulk show, which will also see the return of Tim Roth as Abomination! James Gunn is doing a Guardians of the Galaxy holiday special for 2022.

So yeah, a ton of big news! How exciting! Now let’s go watch those trailers again…

New Fox Cartoon Alert!

Back in the day, it was Seth McFarlane and the Family Guy style that ruled the Fox cartoon universe. Now it seems that Bob’s Burgers is the new hot stuff. Because Fox has released a teaser for their next cartoon, The Great North, which looks like it could be set in the same universe.

That’s a great cast. But a great cast does not guarantee a great show. I haven’t watched any of those Fox cartoons in forever. They tell me Bob’s Burgers is great, and I don’t disagree. I just haven’t watched it in years!

Still, I felt like sharing this teaser for The Great North, which debuts in February.

Hilda is Coming Back for a Second Season!

Honestly, I’m a little shocked to learn that the adorable animated show Hilda has only had one season so far. I watched it and I enjoyed it…but apparently, in my memory, I thought it was much more than just 13 episodes. Turns out I’m wrong! And they came out all the way back in 2018!

Well good news, Hilda fans! Season 2 starts in two weeks!

Hilda is an adventurous little girl who lives in a world of urban fantasy. She lives in a nice little town, and then there’s monsters and elves and magic and all sorts of stuff. It’s a quaint little cartoon and definitely worth a watch!

Hilda season 2 comes to Netflix on Dec. 14.

So, Tom & Jerry Are Getting the Live Action Treatment…

Yeah, this is a thing that’s happening. Chloe Grace Moretz gets to pantomime to an invisible Tom and Jerry for a new moving coming out next year.

Oy vey that looks bad. Like, really bad. Like, who is making this nonsense bad? But I suppose it’s nice that the various actors in the movie will continue to get a paycheck of some kind. I like Michael Pena as much as the next person.

There’s a LEGO Star Wars Christmas Special Coming Out Tomorrow!

Have you heard of this thing? LEGO and Star Wars are putting out a silly new holiday special on Tuesday. It seems to involve Rey traveling through time and running into various characters, including everybody’s favorite, Baby Yoda.

Looks…watchable? Maybe? I don’t know. I don’t watch any of the LEGO Star Wars animated stuff. Seems focused on kids, while also trying to ape the humor of the big screen LEGO movies. But hey. We’re all fans of Star Wars here. We’re all fans of LEGO. So maybe this will be worth a watch.

LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special comes out on Disney+.
