Over the weekend the Disney’s D23 expo was held in which we saw alot of announcements from Disney, Marvel Studios and Star Wars. Here is a wrap up post of what went down.

Let’s start with the Marvel side of things as we saw alot of announcements from Marvel Studios. Marvel announced 3 new TV series to all air on Disney Plus which are Ms Marvel, She Hulk and the highly anticipated Moon Knight. As for the casting of roles for these 3 shows, we will need to wait to find out.

Marvel also dropped the first look at the final season of Agent’s Of Shield which will come to a end after 7 seasons in 2020. See below for the trailer

Marvel also announced Black Panther 2 which will come out on the 6th May 2022 with Ryan Coolger returning to direct the sequel. We also got to see the cast for the upcoming Eternals movie as well

A brief What If Trailer was shown to the audience showing Peggy Carter as Captain Carter, and a zombified Steve Rogers. Black Widow was discussed.

Onto the Star Wars side of things in which Ewan McGregor is set to reprise his role as Obi-Wan Kenobi in the new series for Disney Plus. A new trailer for Episode 9 was shown but we will need to wait to see it.

Thats a brief overview on what went on. Few exciting things in the pipeline in which we cant wait to see.

After earlier details this year, Disney has finally confirmed that Disney + will be coming to Australia later this year.

Disney Plus, the entertainment giant’s rival to Netflix and Stan, will launch on November 12, and will be available in Australia and New Zealand on November 19. Australians will be able to stream the latest Star Wars, Marvel and Pixar movies, as well as a host of original content, for $8.99 a month (or $89 a year).

Disney content – including the Marvel pictures – had previously been available on Netflix, but that deal ended in Febuary

Original programs will be one of the big selling points of Disney Plus. As the company has already hinted, its Marvel original shows, for example, will be important to keep up with what gets played out on the big screen in cinemas.

Other original shows, such as the live-action, big-budget Star Wars spin-off The Mandalorian, will be available at the service’s launch. Customers will also have access to a vast library of Disney’s and Fox’s legacy content, as well as movies and documentaries.

This news today is killing everyone who loves Spiderman. Sony and Marvel have fallen out over the rights and profits to Spiderman in the movies. The standoff between the 2 parties was reportedly over a reworking of the deal that would see Marvel Studios get a 50/50 co-financing stake in the upcoming Spiderman movies. The deal would have given Marvel Studios its stake in the Spiderman franchise while also bringing Sony’s extended universe of Spiderman movies such as Venom into the Marvel Cinematic Universe proper. Sony turned the offer down outright without so much as a counteroffer. Sony seems not to want to share what is its biggest film franchise. It instead preferred to keep the current arrangement intact, which sees Marvel Studios receiving an approximate 5% of each Spiderman movie’s first-dollar gross.

This is sad news as we know that there were at least 2 more Spiderman movies in the works with current director Jon Watts and Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spiderman. Let’s hope that they can work the differences out and get this back on track. Let us know what you think?
