Daredevil: Born Again is Coming Soon!
Daredevil: Born Again is coming to Disney+ on March 4! And that’s according to it’s first official trailer, which arrived yesterday! Don’t read this, watch the trailer!
This looks super exciting. Just like everybody else, I’m very much loving the idea of bringing back the Netflix Daredevil show with more seasons. Charlie Cox and his pals are just so perfect as the Daredevil cast, and his few appearances in Spider-Man and She-Hulk have only whet the whistle. We need him back for reals!
Hopefully Born Again lives up to all the hype. The fans know exactly what they want, and surely Disney can’t be oblivious to that. And while you can’t always just give fans what they want…this is an expensive TV show we’re talking about, with a lot of the MCU’s future hanging on its success. Are Disney and Marvel going to do right by the fans? Or are they going to change things in an attempt to be different?
We’ll find out when Daredevil: Born Again comes to Disney+ on March 4!

Oh Hey, Here’s a Marvel What If…? Trailer Too
This weekend delivered us some awesome Marvel movie trailers, and yesterday delivered the trailer for the third season of the What If…? cartoon show! I like What If…? It’s a fun show with neat animation. Sometimes they really have fun with it. Let’s hope they have fun with this season.
Yep, that was a really great trailer ending! They made the right choice with that inclusion. That’s what’s going to get people talking. The rest of the trailer looked fun…but I’ll be honest, heh…when it was just people’s faces and not costumes, I couldn’t tell who anybody was. I knew the cowboy was Shang-Chi because of a previous trailer with closed captions. Perhaps I should have turned closed captions on with this trailer, then I’d know who was talking.
Definitely didn’t need them for Storm talking!
The third and final season of What If…? arrives on Dec. 22 for another Christmastime marathon!

Let’s Start This Week with Some Sweet Marvel Trailers
I’m not going to become a doom and gloom blog and I’m not going to let my newfound nihilism hamper my love of pop culture. I bought both the LEGO X-Mansion and Bumblebee sets this weekend, and have collected all of Chip Zdarsky’s critically acclaimed Daredevil run. So retail therapy has been helpful.
What’s also helpful is that a couple of new, awesome Marvel trailers came out this weekend from a Disney event in Brazil! I remain an ardent MCU fanboy and am very much looking forward to next year’s plethora of content.
First up is Captain America: Brave New World.
Looks awesome! After that first trailer and the positive response, Marvel clearly invested in some good trailer people. I like the political intrigue. Red Hulk looks fun. They do some good work with Sam Wilson flying everywhere. I have a lot of high hopes for this one.
Captain America 4: Brave New World comes out on Feb. 14.
Next up is Thunderbolts*, which I’m even more excited about.
Thunderbolts* is like the first Avengers film. We take all of these random characters from the past few movies and shows and then bring them together and let them banter and bounce off one another. They’re not as famous as the Avengers characters, but it’s going to work for me if they have fun with it. These are the grungy, grimy Avengers and these are some great characters to use.
Thunderbolts* comes to theaters on May 2.

Did You See This Sweet Marvel Disney+ Trailer?
To coincide with the Agatha All Along finale, Marvel put out this sizzle reel of upcoming Disney+ releases. This teaser trailer delivers our first official looks at Daredevil: Born Again, Ironheart, Eyes of Wakanda, Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and, especially, Wonder Man! Everything looks so good!
I remain a staunch fan of Marvel Studios content. Agatha All Along was very good and I really enjoyed the finale. And I can’t wait for these shows! I know people aren’t too excited for Ironheart, but I think it looks good! I prefer my Iron People to be nuts and bolts, not nanomachines. And Wonder Man could be a real sleeper hit. Daredevil: Born Again will hopefully live up to all the hype. And the various cartoons should be a hoot!
Granted, this means 2025 is going to be full of Marvel content, with three movies and now half a dozen shows. But I think Marvel just needs to burn off all these completed projects before they slow their releases. And I’m all for it!

I Am Very Excited for Thunderbolts*
The first official teaser trailer for the Thunderbolts* movie arrived like lightning today, and it looks pretty awesome! I saw a pirated version of this when it was released at Comic-Con (or D23?) and it looks even better as a real trailer on my real phone.
I am excited for this movie! I do not hide my MCU apologies or love for the franchise still, and this looks awesome! Take a bunch of random side characters from the past few movies and shows and team them up Avengers-style! It helps that I very much like all these characters, especially U.S.Agent and Ghost. I’m so thrilled they’re bringing back Ghost! It would have been so easy to never hear from her again, but this is a perfect place for her!
It looks funny, it looks full of action, and it looks like Florence Pugh will easily carry the whole darn thing. David Harbour as Red Guardian is also no slouch in the fun department.
Thunderbolts* comes to theaters next May.
And in terms of the asterisk, I’m in the camp that believes the movie will be “Dark Avengers” by the end.
