At the Marvel Television and Animation conference held during New York Comic Con 2026, several new projects were announced. Marvel revealed a new live-action Disney+ series titled Zodiac, scheduled for release in 2028. The series is described as a spy thriller and appears to be connected to SHIELD, the secret government organization in the Marvel universe. Filming for Zodiac is set to begin in London in the spring of 2027, with casting to take place in the coming weeks. While details about the storyline and specific characters are limited, the involvement of Nick Fury, played by Samuel L. Jackson, is considered a possibility due to his role within SHIELD. The series may take place after the events of Avengers: Secret Wars, a film in which Jackson has confirmed his participation.
In addition to Zodiac, Marvel confirmed the return of the Marvel Zombies series with three special episodes over the next three years. The first special, The Winter Soldier, is scheduled for release on Disney+ on Halloween 2027, followed by The Fist of Konshu in 2028 and The Last Guardian in 2029. The identity of The Last Guardian has not been revealed, but Marvel promises the reveal will be "very, very exciting."
Other announcements included the confirmation that the third season of Daredevil: Born Again will serve as the series' conclusion. The cast of Daredevil: Born Again, including Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter, and Finn Jones, took the stage to discuss the upcoming season. Mike Colter, who plays Luke Cage, was absent due to prior commitments. The third season will also see the "Save Daredevil" campaign gain momentum again.
The second season of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man was announced with a release date of January 13, 2027. The first official poster for the season was revealed during the conference. A preview of the third season of X-Men '97 was also shared, with confirmation that Deadpool will appear alongside She-Hulk at the wedding of Gambit and Rogue. In season 2, Deadpool was more of a reference due to his transformation ability, but it is likely that the real Deadpool will make an appearance in season 3.
The conference concluded with the premiere of the first episode of VisionQuest, a new Disney+ series. The cast and creators of VisionQuest took the stage to promote the series. Paul Bettany, who portrays Vision, joked about his character spending time at the pub since the events of WandaVision transformed him into Vision White. No major additional announcements were made after the screening.
