Disney’s D23 Expo took place recently, and we got a ton of news and announcements about things coming to the parks, resorts, and Disney+.
We got a new look at Mickey’s Toontown and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, a trailer for the live-action The Little Mermaid, and some potential ideas for projects that could be coming in the future. We also found out some exciting Marvel news, so let’s take a look at the 5 biggest Marvel announcements from D23 Expo!
Avengers Campus Expansion
Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure park at Disneyland Resort is getting an expansion! The new land will expand into the multiverse, just like we’ve been seeing in some Marvel movies and shows recently.
With this new expansion, there will also be a new RIDE! The attraction will “bring guests into battle alongside their favorite Super Heroes.” We will also meet a new character, King Thanos, on the ride.
This is a version of Thanos who was successful with everything he wanted to accomplish.

Secret Invasion
The Marvel series Secret Invasion will be coming to Disney+ in 2023, and Disney released the first trailer during the Expo!
In it, you can see Nick Fury, so Marvel fans should enjoy this one. The show also seems to be taking on a bit more of a serious tone compared to some of the funnier Marvel content we’ve gotten in recent years.

Werewolf by Night
Marvel is diving into the horror genre with a new Halloween special called Werewolf By Night. It’s based on the horror comic book series from the 1970s.
The series will star Gael García Bernal as Jack Russell, who is a werewolf superhero that uses his supernatural abilities to fight crime.
The series will premiere on Disney+ on October 7th, 2022, and you can watch the trailer right here.

Fantastic Four
We also got a big update on the Fantastic Four movie that should be coming out in November of 2024. Disney has finally revealed the director! Matt Shakman will be directing the movie.
Shakman also directed WandaVision, so he’s familiar with the world of Marvel. The movie should be in theaters on November 8th, 2024.
