21 Cool Things We Saw in Marvel’s Big TV Preview

21 Cool Things We Saw in Marvel’s Big TV Preview

The future of Marvel Television is bright, as evidenced released the awesome new sizzle reel on Wednesday. In the two-minute clip, Marvel debuted new footage from seven upcoming shows, some of which no one had seen yet.

There is What if…? season three arrives on December 22 and then in 2025, Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man next January 25, Daredevil: Born Again coming March 4, Iron heart on June 24, Eyes of Wakanda on August 6 Marvel zombies in OctoberAnd Wonderful man December ends the year.

And even though it’s a short preview, Marvel would definitely pack a lot into it. Here are the 21 cool things we saw in the footage.

Daredevil Dinner
Matt and Wilson chat – Marvel

Daredevil: Born Again

A new suit (:26)– Every time the Man Without Fear appears in Marvel, he seemingly has a new suit, and this time is no exception.

Mayor Fisk (:13, 1:34, 1:36)– As expected and teased, especially in EchoWilson Fisk (aka the Kingpin) is now mayor of New York City.

Punisher is back (:15, 1:37) – While the first part of the trailer features a brief shot of Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle, we later see him in his Punisher outfit.

Muse (:09) – The footage shows our first look at the villain Muse.

Yusuf Khan (:30)– Perhaps the biggest Easter egg in the entire trailer is the appearance of Mr. Khan, also known as Kamala’s father Ms. Marvel And The miracles. He is the man who asks Matt if he wants to be a lawyer. Could his daughter play a role here?

Spider-Man animated homemade
Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – Miracle

Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man

The footage here is super fast, so the biggest takeaway is this unique twist (pun intended) on a Spider-Man staple: the homemade suit. (:36)

IJzerhart De Kap
Anthony Ramos as the Hood Iron heart – Miracle

Iron heart

Han Solo collaborates (:08)– Sorry, Alden Ehrenreich, to us you will always be a young Han Solo. And in a very quick shot at the beginning of the trailer, we see Riri Williams bringing him one of her armors.

The hood (:10,:45)– The trailer gives a few quick looks at the Hood, the show’s villain played by Anthony Ramos.

New armors (:43, :47)– looks like Riri will have some armor Iron heart and the white one is reminiscent of one of Tony Stark’s variants in Iron man 3.

Coulson Fury What if
Agents Coulson and Fury enter What if…? – Miracle

What if…? Season 3

Agent Coulson returns (:57) – Nick Fury leads a team, perhaps traveling on the Bifrost, that includes everyone’s favorite agent Coulson.

The Avenger Voltron (:59) – A shot of a Captain America-themed mech comes from an episode where several Avengers pilot similar robots all combined into one.

Cowboy Shang-Chi (:57) – An obvious one, but it’s good to finally see this hero back as we patiently wait for his live-action return.

Marvel Zombies Sword
A very mysterious and intriguing character Marvel zombies – Miracle

Marvel zombies

Is that Leaf? (1:02) – A man cuts up zombies that look a bit like Mahershala Ali in a Moon Knight costume. Is it Moon Knight? Is it Blade? Is it someone else?

Varied zombies (1:01)– A quick shot shows not only a zombie member of the Dora Milaje, but possibly Cull Obsidian too?

Zombie Thanos (1:34) – An undead Thanos? What’s scarier than that?

Eyes of Wakanda teasing
A short recording of Eyes of Wakanda – Miracle

Eyes of Wakanda

There isn’t much to take away from the two quick shots, other than the very unique and beautiful animation style that features many new characters from Wakanda. (1:25)

Wonder Man red suit
A tribute from Wonderful man – Miracle

Wonderful man

Meet Simon (1:07) – Here’s our first look at Simon (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) who isn’t just auditioning for Wonder Man, he’s going to become Wonder Man.

Trevor is back (1:19) – Ben Kingsley is back in the MCU, reprising his role as failed actor Trevor Slattery Iron man 3 And Shang Chi. I’m glad to see he’s still in show business.

Costume tribute (:08) – An early shot in the trailers shows Simon in a red suit, which appears to be a reference to one of Simon’s alternate uniforms from the comics: his classic “safari jacket” casual look introduced in the late 1970s.

But also –

Marvel Disney Plague
Who is that in the bottom middle? – Miracle

There are two things in the trailer that have us completely baffled. There is an image of someone in front of what appears to be a crime investigation (:10) which we are not sure about. Is this from Iron heart? Wonderful man? And then there’s the image above from the TVA (:05). We can place almost all the images in this scene except the one in the bottom center. It looks like Josh Gad in black and white. Any ideas?
