Disney moves up release of 'WandaVision' to this year

Marvel Cinematic Universe fans are getting two new shows to look forward to this year. Disney moved up the release of WandaVision to this year instead of in the spring of 2021, but it hasn't specified which month it's coming out. We don't know why Disney decided to move but the release, but it will join The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, which will also be making its debut this year.  

WandaVision will be following the relationship between Scarlet Witch and Vision post-Avengers: Endgame. The teaser images hint at a 1950s element to the show, but also, it's going to be connected to the 2021 MCU movie, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Disney+ shows release dates for missing MCU movies

With yesterday's launch of the Disney+ streaming service, a handful of Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies have not been made available yet. Some of these are still available on rival service Netflix. But at least now we know when to expect most of them. The app's title pages for the following films display the release dates: Thor: Ragnarok will be available on December 5, 2019, Avengers: Infinity War will be available on June 25, 2020, and Ant-Man and the Wasp will be available on July 29, 2020. What we don't have information on right now are the releases of The Incredible Hulk, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Spider-Man: Far From Home.

It seems like a dig at 20th Century Fox for not being able to successfully bring the Fantastic Four to the big screen. But Marvel Studios' head Kevin Feige also seems like he's making a promise to fans who have been clamoring for the longest time to see these heroes get an MCU treatment. While speaking to Variety at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Feige answered when asked about their plans for the characters, "All of that is spoilers, but I'm extremely excited about those characters, and about bringing Marvel's first family up to the sort of platform and level they deserve." Feige didn't specifically say when we can expect a Fantastic Four film (or maybe even series), but just acknowledging it now makes us excited.
