Disney+kicked off in November of last year, and has already provided the world with one big substantial hit series inThe Mandalorian. It was the first live-actionStar WarsTV show, and turned Baby Yoda into a phenomenon. The streaming app will continue its legacy in 2020 with a number of original series and movies coming direct to the service over the course of the next twelve months. There are two all-new Marvel live-action series lined-up, new episodes ofClone Wars, and we will see the hugely anticipated return of Hilary Duff as Lizzie McGuire. This was all revealed in a new trailer for Disney+’s 2020 lineup.
Perhaps the biggest news to be revealed in thisDisney+ 2020 moviesand TV preview is the fact that one of the first Marvel live-action series is coming our way this year, withWandaVisionarriving earlier than its previously announced spring 2021 release date.
We don’t have a confirmed debut for this superhero adventure, which stars Elizebeth Olsen and Paul Bettany asThe Vision and Scarlett Witch. It has been described as an Ozzy and Harriet type ’60s sitcom, thought that scenario may only be taking place inside the brain of Wanda Maximoff, as Vision died inAvengers: infinity War. The show will connect directly toDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, with Benedict Cumberbatch expected to show up as the Sorcerer Supreme in the season one finale.
Also coming from Marvel in 2020 is the exciting new action adventure seriesThe Falcon and the Winter Solider, which will pick up after the events ofAvengers: Endgame. Sam Wilson has been passed the Captain America shield by Steve Rogers, but we’re not sure what that will look like as Bucky Barnes joins the fight alongside the return of Captain Zemo and a few new Marvel superheroes.
Perhaps one of the most anticipated series coming in 2020 is theLizzie McGuirerevival, which brings Hilary Duff back to Disney. She became a household name starring on the original series as a kid. And you can see her big return for the first time in the footage provided by Disney+.
