Marvel, specifically the MCU, is coming to Disney Plus. We’ve seen what it will look like, and now we know when these series will begin streaming.

As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Disney CEO Bob Iger revealed a few interesting details about the future of Disney Plus during a Tuesday earnings call. The call included project updates from both Star Wars and the MCU. With Marvel getting ready to kick Phase Four into high gear, learning about the release dates of their upcoming series has us wondering how it will all connect.

The Falcon & the Winter Solider will release in August of this year, followed by WandaVision in December. The other confirmed series still have broad release dates, like Loki in early 2021 and Hawkeye in late 2021; but we can still see a near-complete timeline for Phase Four projects from now until the end of 2021.

  • Black Widow (May 1, 2020)
  • The Falcon & the Winter Soldier (August 2020)
  • The Eternals (November 6, 2020)
  • WandaVision (December 2020)
  • Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (February 12, 2021)
  • Loki (Early 2021)
  • Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (May 7, 2021)
  • Untitled Spider-Man: Far From Home sequel (July 16, 2021)
  • Thor: Love and Thunder (November 5, 2021)
  • Hawkeye (Late 2021)

Assuming Marvel treats Phase Four as they treated Phase One, Thor: Love and Thunder will likely round out the phase from a film perspective. There are four other Disney Plus series either in production or ordered that will help make Phase Four Marvel’s largest yet:

  • What If… ?  (Mid-2021)
  • Ms. Marvel (TBA)
  • Moon Knight (TBA)
  • She-Hulk (TBA)

The What If… ? animated series may be the only part of Phase Four that won’t affect or interact with the rest of the MCU, as it will revisit major moments from the MCU, but seeing them occur differently. The other seven series, on the other hand, will help shape the future of the MCU.
