Los Angeles, CA – Marvel fans can look forward to three exciting releases from the Marvel universe streaming on Disney+ in the near future. After mixed reviews for Disney’s previous Marvel releases, including the criticism of “Secret Invasion” and positive reception of “Loki,” the studio aims to regroup in 2024 with new content that will captivate audiences.
Closing out the year with a bang, Disney+ will be launching “What If…?” later this month. This animated series will release one episode per night from December 22 to December 30, setting the stage for another thrilling year for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
In January 2024, Disney+ will debut three highly anticipated projects from Marvel. The first is the original Marvel film, “X-Men” (2000), directed by Bryan Singer. This movie marked the beginning of the modern era of Marvel films. Fans can finally stream this iconic movie on Disney+ starting Friday, January 5, 2024. “X-Men” introduced Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and assembled a talented ensemble cast featuring Halle Berry, James Marsden, Patrick Stewart, and Ian McKellan.
Following “X-Men,” the MCU’s first new project of 2024 will be the “Echo” series. This series continues the story of the character Maya Lopez after her debut in “Hawkeye.” She will reunite with characters like Daredevil and Kingpin, played by Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio respectively. The “Echo” series will delve into her origins and explore her Native American heritage as she navigates her connection to the criminal underworld. Notably, this will be the first MCU project to debut simultaneously on Disney+ and Hulu. All five episodes of “Echo” will be available for streaming on January 9, 2024.
In addition to “Echo,” fans can also look forward to an episode of “Marvel Studios’ Assembled” dedicated to the making of the “Echo” series.

With these three releases, Marvel aims to continue captivating audiences with their engaging storytelling and beloved characters.
