Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 2
Release window: Fall 2026.
A trailer shown at NYCC confirms Venom will appear in season 2. The footage includes Spider-Man swinging around New York in a more traditional suit, a sequence of him breaking into Oscorp where he discovers symbiote goop, and a brief appearance by Daredevil. The panel noted the animation in the trailer as more fluid compared with season 1.
VisionQuest
Format and release: Live-action spinoff of WandaVision, set to release in 2026 on Disney Plus.
Marvel confirmed James Spader will return as the voice of Ultron, portraying a human version of that character alongside Paul Bettany’s White Vision. Other MCU AIs—FRIDAY, EDITH, DUM-E, and JARVIS—were announced to appear in human forms.
Footage shown at the panel opens with Vision entering his home and being greeted by previous AIs from the MCU, in a setting described as fake and similar to WandaVision; Vision then snaps out of that setting. The teaser ends with a reference to Ultron when a character says that Vision now also “has no strings.”
Wonder Man
Marvel released a full trailer for the upcoming MCU series Wonder Man at NYCC, following a teaser that was released on Oct. 10. The trailer was shown during the panel and the studio confirmed it officially screened at the event.
