Your Complete Guide To Every Marvel TV Show Currently In The Works

Have you noticed that there are currently a whole lot of superhero TV shows around? Well, of course you have - you seemingly can't get away from capes and cowls on the small screen at the moment. It's a fairly even split between Marvel and DC for TV dominance, too - e.g. DC have The CW's Arrowverse while Marvel have their Netflix shows - but it looks like the House of Ideas will leave their Distinguished Competition far behind in the dust very soon.

The Defenders

Daredevil-and-the-Defenders

Release info: Summer 2017, Netflix

Cast: Charlie Cox, Kristen Ritter, Mike Colter and Finn Jones are the titular Defenders while Hollywood legend Sigourney Weaver is their nemesis, Alexandra. The show will also feature just about the entire supporting cast of the Netflixverse, including Rosario Dawson, Elodie Yung, Simone Missick, Elden Hensen, Deborah Ann Woll, Scott Glenn and Carrie-Anne Moss.

CrewDaredevil season 2 showrunners Marco Ramirez and Doug Petrie will helm this miniseries of eight episodes. Fellow showrunners Melissa Rosenberg (Jessica Jones), Scott Buck (Iron Fist) and Cheo Hodari Coker (Luke Cage) also had some input.

What to expect: The plot of this one is being kept tightly under wraps, so we don’t know what to expect at the moment apart from the fact that our four heroes will come together to save New York (and probably themselves).

Why you should be excited: Because it’s the culmination of what the four Marvel-Netflix series have been working towards. In effect, The Defenders is a small-screen, street-smart version of The Avengers.
