And, everybody, fake to behave shocked. In keeping with this, the present gained’t be titled Agatha: Home of Harkness, Agatha: Coven of Chaos, or Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, however simply Agatha. You see, it was Agatha… all alongside. Preserving a way of thriller and confusion across the present earlier than basing the title across the character’s fan-favorite tune is a enjoyable bit of promoting on Marvel’s half, however let’s be sincere, all of us noticed this coming months in the past. And right here’s the receipts to show it.

We’ve got simply the one Marvel Studios film coming this yr — Deadpool & Wolverine, in fact — however as a result of we’ve clearly finished one thing to offend the film gods, we’re additionally getting not one, not two however three totally different entries in Sony’s Spider-Man universe. It’s simply doable the top for this failed but foolhardy franchise is in sight, nonetheless, as Venom 3‘s official title has been launched… and it suggests it’ll shut out the trilogy. Arriving in theaters on Oct. 25, it’s called Venom: The Last Dance.

X-Males ’97 dropping its showrunner per week earlier than its premiere means the MCU hasn’t modified
For a second there, we had hope. Hope that 2024 can be a really totally different yr for Marvel than 2023 and the franchise wouldn’t be overshadowed by controversies and scandals anymore. After which, only one week earlier than X-Males ’97 hits Disney Plus, we discover out that showrunner Beau DeMayo has been unceremoniously faraway from the collection with rapid impact, even being banned from attending the premiere. Clearly, there’s extra to come back out right here, in what’s an much more sudden and surprising firing than Jonathan Majors as Kang. And we have been simply hoping for some controversy-free cartoon leisure. Ah, nicely, possibly subsequent time. Deadpool & Wolverine, you will have 4 months to remain out of bother.
