Insider Says Marvel Is Developing Two Secret Specials for 2027

Marvel fans may have new content to watch between upcoming Avengers films.

Reliable insider James Mack reported that Marvel Studios is developing two special presentations for Disney+ scheduled to premiere in 2027.

According to his information, one project will focus on an individual character, while the second will center on a team of heroes. Character names, plot details, and exact release dates are not yet disclosed.

Earlier rumors pointed to a potential special dedicated to Mystique, and insider Daniel Richtman mentioned that filming for a secret project will begin in January, with Ahmed Abdol, the Living Monolith, reportedly serving as its protagonist.

The Special Presentation format allows Marvel to tell standalone stories where a full series would be excessive and producing a feature film for a theatrical release would be unjustified. The first such project was the 2022 black-and-white horror film Werewolf by Night, which introduced viewers to Jack Russell, Elsa Bloodstone, and Man-Thing.

The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special was released that same year, and Marvel returned to the format in 2026 with The Punisher: Final Kill, in which Jon Bernthal reprised his role as Frank Castle ahead of his return in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Marvel Studios has not yet officially announced any specials for 2027. However, the company previously stated that no films will be released between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. This restriction does not apply to special presentations, meaning they could fill the gap between the two major Phase Six blockbusters.
