Marvel Studios always makes sure that its Comic-Con panels are ones to remember. Fresh off doing that at San Diego Comic-Con with major announcements related to Marvel Cinematic Universe movies Avengers: Doomsday, Ghost Rider, and Black Panther 3, it looks to do it all again with the Marvel Television and Animation Panel at New York Comic-Con!
The Marvel TV NYCC panel is expected to feature Head of Marvel Television, Animation, and Streaming, Brad Winderbaum, taking to the Empire Stage of the Javits Center in New York City to tease the MCU's upcoming small screen slate. And, with that, you can expect some big reveals from the TV side of things to be announced today.
With that in mind, here is everything you need to know, including the start time in your time zone, and what announcements you can likely expect from the event.
When does the Marvel TV NYCC panel start?

Although the event is taking place in the US, Marvel fans all over the world will be tuning in for tidbits, surprises, and whatever announcements await from the MCU creatives.

How long is the Marvel NYCC panel?
The Marvel Television and Animation panel has a runtime of 90 minutes (or 1 hour and 30 minutes), meaning that it will finish at 5:45 p.m. ET. That length came as a surprise to many fans as it's a half hour longer than the larger-scale Marvel Studios panel at SDCC earlier this year. And, considering that Marvel's TV slate has had something of an uncertain future in recent years, there aren't that many live-action projects to promote.
Nevertheless, fans are expecting some big surprises as this may well be the largest that Marvel TV has ever gone at NYCC with the super-sized panel. And speaking of what fans can expect...
Is the Marvel NYCC panel available to watch?
Unfortunately, the Marvel TV and Animation panel will not be available to stream online. Neither New York Comic-Con or San Diego Comic-Con are known for streaming their panels on the internet, as the exclusives are often just for those in attendance. However, all of the announcements that are made by Brad Winderbaum and the respective Marvel stars and creatives on the stage will be surfacing online in the minutes after they are made.
In fact, Bam Smack Pow will be in attendance at NYCC, so make sure you follow us on X (formerly Twitter) for LIVE updates and announcements from the event as they are made. You can bet that we will be live-tweeting all of the big news that comes from the Empire Stage (and then some!).
All the announcements you can expect from Marvel's NYCC event
As this is the Marvel Television and Animation panel, it's pretty fair to assume that all of the studio's upcoming projects on the TV side will get a focus. As we said above, there aren't that many of them these days, but there are two major live-action ones and a decent amount of animated projects.
The big one that will get focus will be VisionQuest. The upcoming WandaVision and Agatha All Along sequel series is on the horizon, set to premiere on Disney Plus in a week from now, so you can rest assured that Marvel Studios will use this opportunity to spotlight that one. And, with that, Paul Bettany (a.k.a. Vision himself) will be in attendance to tease the crowd with what they can expect from the series. It also wouldn't be too alien to think that they might show a portion of the first episode considering that the panel is 90 minutes long (and it's unlikely that all of the announcements will take that long).
The other big live-action show (or, well, only live-action show) that Marvel Television will undoubtedly promote is Daredevil: Born Again season 3. After the recent news that the MCU series will be concluding after its third season, this is Marvel's chance to set the record straight, address the elephant in the room, and tease what fans can expect from the final season of the beloved show. And as Daredevil himself, Charlie Cox, and Jessica Jones' Krysten Ritter are also scheduled to appear for photo ops at the event, it's likely that they will appear on stage considering both will be major parts of the third and final season of Daredevil: Born Again.
On the Marvel Animation side of things, there will almost definitely be updates for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 2, which is set to premiere in January 2027. The most likely could be an official release date announcement. Meanwhile, the slate also has a new season of X-Men '97 (season 3, plus the recently-announced season 4) on the horizon,
The wild card is Marvel Zombies. Originally envisioned as a miniseries, the show's popularity led to a season 2 renewal, with the studio already hard at work on bringing it to life. Brad Winderbaum could very well use this as an opportunity to officially announce the show to an audience and perhaps tease when it could arrive.
