Fan-Favorite Disney Plus MCU Series Reportedly Canceled
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has turned into an ever-expanding franchise with a thriving continuity tied to dozens of beloved films and shows. The studio isn't always eager to renew some of its properties, however, and now one Disney Plus series tied to the MCU has been reportedly canceled.
Cancellations are always frustrating, especially when it comes to fan-favorite TV shows, and streaming services like Disney Plus must frequently make decisions regarding which shows they renew or outright cancel. Now, after a silence from the studio, it looks like one series has been canceled without any fanfare.
As explained by a new report, the cancellation when asked whether or not fans could expect to see new episodes of the series which last saw a release in 2024.
Here's what TVLine shared:
'I'm hearing that there are no new episodes of the Disney+ franchise planned at this time,' he answered.
His response refers to Marvel Studios: Assembled , a TV series that aired on Disney Plus with each episode diving into the making of various MCU projects. With so many new movies having been released in the last few years, there are certainly plenty of stories worth telling in the series, but it looks like that's no longer the plan.
The last episode of Marvel Studios: Assembled released was in November 2024, and it tackled the making of Agatha All Along . While there are still other projects having been released recently like Captain America: Brave New World and Thunderbolts , both of which would be perfect for episodes on the series, that's seemingly not going to happen.
As of this writing, Marvel Studios: Assembled only consists of 22 episodes. While MCU fans were delighted by the Disney Plus series, the decision to have it canceled may be baffling, though it seems to be an example of the studio's efforts to downsize their output. After all, they want to make Disney Plus more successful, and adding too much Marvel content both saturates their catalogue and increases costs.
Of course, we could always see a comeback for the series in the future, so we'll have to see what happens on that front. Hopefully this isn't the last we see of Marvel Studios: Assembled . For fans hoping that the more recent MCU releases would be receiving episodes, however, it looks like you shouldn't hold your breath.
