    Marvel Studios is finally about to introduce a villain for Paul Bettany's Vision in Disney+'s Vision Quest, played by Todd Stashwick. The synthezoid has been a recurring hero in the MCU for over 10 years since Avengers: Age of Ultron. But, as Bettany's hero has usually been relegated to supporting roles, he has never received a supervillain of his own.

    The MCU's next Disney+ series, Ironheart, will have a confusing placement in the Phase 5 timeline. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige announced Ironheart in December 2020 during Disney Investor Day and production took place from May to November 2022. As such, the Disney+ series was filmed even before Dominique Throne debuted as Riri Williams, aka Ironheart, in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and yet fans are only just seeing it two and a half years later.

    The MCU's first Phase 7 movies just got delayed by Disney and Marvel Studios. The original plans had Marvel Studios' next saga (rumored to be the Mutant Saga) set to begin with an untitled movie on November 5, 2027, following the release of Avengers: Secret Wars in May of that year. But, sadly, both Secret Wars and its predecessor, Avengers: Doomsday, have been pushed back as production gets underway.

    Daredevil: Born Againis introducing a new superhero with a familiar mantle in Season 2. Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock was certainly at the forefront of Born Again, but some exciting heroes joined him. Fans were elated to see familiar faces such as Jon Bernthal's Punisher and Tony Dalton's Swordsman back in action, and just as eager to meet new faces like Kamar de los Reyes' White Tiger.

    Captain America: Brave New Worldfinally joined the MCU's official timeline order on Disney+ and revealed its unsurprising placement. For the most part, the MCU takes place roughly in release order, but there are some notable exceptions that throw things off. Fortunately, Disney+ has come to the rescue with a section that encompasses every movie, show, and short in chronological order for those looking for a slightly different MCU viewing experience.

I LOVE #AgathaAllAlong! It stands out from the rest of the MCU with its unique tone, characters, and deep focus on witchcraft. It quickly establishes enticing mysteries that have me fully on board for the rest of the season. Kathryn Hahn's performance really sells this one.

Got to check out this week’s #DoctorWho #Boom What an instant classic from Moffat! A very bubble episode akin to Midnight, and possibly just as amazing! The acting of #NcutiGatwa and #MillieGibson really carried this one to greatness. Some gorgeous visuals here too!

I saw the first two episodes of #DoctorWho! Ncuti Gatwa kills it as a Doctor full of energy and fun. His chemistry with Millie Gibson's Ruby is electric Devil's Chord is a standout with moments that will put a smile on longtime fans Both are great for new and old viewers
