As Disney+ moves towards the one-year anniversary since its launch last November, the premium streaming service has offered an extended sneak peek at the new films and television series coming to the digital platform in the near future.
A trailer for Disney+'s upcoming programming slated to debut in 2020 included clips from The Mandalorian and the Marvel Cinematic Universe series WandaVision, with Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany reprising their respective roles as the Scarlet Witch and Vision. This appears to confirm previous reports that the MCU live-action series is still on track for late 2020 premiere.
After being temporarily suspended this past March by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic's spread, principal photography on WandaVision reportedly resumed earlier this summer in Los Angeles. The upcoming series joins The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, which has also since resumed filming while targeting a Fall 2020 premiere on Disney+ after the global health crisis delaying its intended premiere date for this past August.
The trailer also confirmed additional X-Men films will be arriving on the digital platform by the end of the year, as well as fan-favorite films including Hidden Figures and Bend It Like Beckham.
Created by Jon Favreau, The Mandalorian stars Pedro Pascal, Gina Carano, Carl Weathers, Giancarlo Esposito, Taika Waititi and Emily Swallow. Season 2 premieres Oct. 30 on Disney+.
WandaVision stars Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch, Paul Bettany as Vision, Randall Park as Agent Jimmy Woo, Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis, Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau and Kathryn Hahn. The limited series will debut on Disney+, with an expected premiere for late 2020.
