There is simply no way to go through a Comic Con without having Marvel Comics present in every way. Fortunately, for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios brought their 2026 slate to New York Comic Con earlier this weekend. To share what’s upcoming in the studio’s release slate, Marvel Studios executive and head of Marvel Animation, Brad Winderbaum, took the stage to reveal all.
First up was Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Season 2, which also showcased a new teaser. The teaser heavily featured Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) in a new precarious situation as one of his iconic rivals, Venom, is also set to appear. Charlie Cox will also be returning to voice this animated Daredevil counterpart. The second season is set to release in Fall 2026 on Disney+.
Check out the additional trailer details below!
- Nico Minoru will actually be using her magic skills as she was seen meditating in the air.
- Doctor Octopus, Chameleon, Scorpion, and Tombstone will also be returning (and Tombstone actually has his gear this time!)
- Harry Osborn was seen falling and Spider-Man has to save him (in a similar way to Gwen Stacy from The Amazing Spider-Man 2!)
The second project featured was X-Men ‘97 Season 2, which is set to release in Summer 2026. Additionally, it was also confirmed that Season 3 is currently in development. However, in Season 2, the stakes for the X-Men are much higher as they have to face a classic threat: Apocalypse. Attendees also got to see the official teaser for what’s to come!
- The Phoenix Force looks to play an important role once again as Jean Gray takes full force.
- The X-Force is also teased, having to take the place of the time-scattered X-Men.
- The Summers family was also featured, possibly having to deal with the cosmic repercussions of what happened in Season 1 as well as Apocalypse’s plans.
- Omega Red getting ready to battle the good mutants.
The third project featured was Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, set to release in March 2026. Charlie Cox and Krysten Ritter took the stage to tease what Kingpin’s plans are for New York City as well as how the Defenders might get back together. The official trailer was also unveiled to attendees, so you can check out our description down below!
- Matt Murdock and Karen Page seem to be living a good life, but some loud noise catches Matt off-guard, coinciding with images of Kingpin’s laughter.
- Bullseye is seen multiple times, from entering a diner to being beaten up inside of a church.
- Kingpin dons boxing gear and fights to prove his voters’ confidence in a physical fight, which is planned to happen in the original Fogwell’s Gym.
- A Daredevil-inspired riot occurs near Brooklyn’s City Hall while Fisk’s Anti-Vigilante Task Force blocks them out.
- Daredevil dons his other iconic black suit and fights his way through Fisk’s goons.
- Jessica Jones finds Matt in a church, asking him if he’s okay.
- Flashbacks with Foggy Nelson before the events of Daredevil: Born Again Season 1 were also showcased.
The fourth project featured was Wonder Man, which was previously teased yesterday in a short video. However, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley took to the stage to tease Marvel Studios’ most meta show to date, which sees Simon Williams seeking to take on his role of a lifetime. The series will release on January 27 on Disney+, but you can watch the official trailer below.
The last project to be featured was Vision Quest, which was a surprise for attendees. Taking the stage to reveal what was in store for the next installment in Marvel Studios’ WandaVision trilogy was Paul Bettany. This series follows the new White Vision, who gained his memories back from the Hex’s Vision. Now, he’s on a journey of his own to discover himself again and, possibly, the impact Wanda Maximoff left behind.
Check out the highlights from what we saw in the trailer down below!
- White Vision has made his own “Hex” inside of his cyber mindspace with an abstract white house that keeps every version of Tony Stark’s AIs inside.
- James D’Arcy returns as Jarvis from Agent Carter in business suit attire as a butler.
- Emily Hampshire’s E.D.I.T.H. is the smarts of the group, having to take care of the others in a “motherly” way.
- Orla Brady’s F.R.I.D.A.Y. is the poppy engineer of the group, dressed up in test gear, orange clothing, and overalls.
- James Spader’s Ultron makes a comeback, both in android form and a full human form with an old, elderly appearance. He constantly taunts Vision that he might not fully recover everything.
- Vision continually finds himself breaking down as footage from WandaVision and Avengers: Infinity War play out in multiple cuts.
- Ruaridh Mollica was also revealed in the trailer to play a kid named Thomas Shepherd. However, fans have pointed out that this character is the incarnation of Wanda’s second child and brother to Billy Maximoff, Tommy.
