Disney wants to end this year 2024 with the greatest possible success both in movie theaters and on its streaming service Disney+. And, for this reason, it has not hesitated to organize a new edition of its D23 event, in which many renowned actors have been present and where important news has been announced.
Not even in our most optimistic predictions would we have predicted that Deadpool and Wolverine would premiere in November on Disney+. And we also did not see the organization of this D23 Brazil coming, which has enjoyed enormous importance and where outstanding dates have been revealed for the immediate future of Disney+. But it is clear that Disney wants the streaming service to continue adding users before the start of 2025.
Date for the return of Andor
There’s no rest for Star Wars fans, although that’s actually a positive thing. On December 3, the series Star Wars: Lost Crew arrives and now a date is set for the next premiere. It will be the second season of Andor, a production that left good impressions in its first episodes and will finally return on April 22, 2025.
This second season of Andor will be the last and will help us see how its protagonist, Cassian Andor, goes from being a soldier to becoming a leader. The season will consist of 12 episodes and will place us in that four-year period in which the Rebel Alliance will discover the Death Star. As fans will already know, all of that will leave us with the events of the Rogue One movie ready for us to tie the story together in the best way possible. From Disney they say that the second season will increase the tension of the series due to the imminent galactic war that is looming. That will leave us with a wide series of betrayals, sacrifices and conflicts that will make the episodes surprise viewers.
What’s next from Marvel on Disney+
More details have been revealed about Daredevil: Born Again, a series that will premiere on March 4, 2025. But beyond delving deeper into the context, history and production situation, the presence of the series at the event is has concentrated more on enjoying the appearance of its protagonists. Where Disney has announced unpublished news has been in relation to the animated series from the Marvel factory.
On the one hand, we know that the new Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man series premieres on January 29, 2025 and that it will have a style that pays tribute to the most classic comics. On the other hand, What If…? returns for its third and final season on December 22. But first, starting tomorrow, you can see the trailer for this new batch of episodes. Marvel says that classic characters from the Marvel universe will make unexpected decisions that will cause their worlds to change and transform into alternative versions that will give a lot of spectacle. As usual, we must not rule out that some of the stories and versions seen in this series end up having an impact on the films as has happened previously.
Other news that will arrive at the cinema first

A small glimpse of The Mandalorian and Grogu, the Star Wars movie, has been shown and it is once again confirmed that the release date will be May 22, 2026 in theaters.
