Marvel fans have a lot to look forward to in the coming months as Disney recently announced the premiere dates for the highly-anticipated second season of Loki and its all-new series Echo. During Disney’s 2023 Upfronts presentation in New York, Marvel’s Kevin Feige revealed the premiere dates of the two series.
First up on the calendar is the much-awaited return of Loki. The sophomore outing of the Tom Hiddleston series is set to debut exclusively on Disney Plus on October 6, 2023, with the project picking up immediately where the first season left off.
Following hot on the heels of Loki is the debut of the Alaqua Cox starrer Echo, scheduled to arrive on Disney Plus on November 29, 2023. What makes this series particularly exciting is the fact that all episodes will be available for streaming on the same day, allowing fans to binge-watch the entire season in one go.
For now, Marvel is gearing up to release Secret Invasion, which hits Disney Plus on June 21st. Developed by Kyle Bradstreet, Secret Invasion stars Marvel veteran Samuel L. Jackson, who reprises his role as Nick Fury, with Ben Mendelsohn joining him as the shape-shifting alien Talos.
How Marvel is adapting Secret Invasion
Secret Invasion is based on the comic book storyline of the same name, which was created by Brian Michael Bendis and Leinil Francis Yu . The story revolves around a group of Skrulls, an alien race that has the ability to shape-shift and take on the appearance of anyone they want. The Skrulls have infiltrated Earth’s society and are secretly replacing key figures with their own kind in order to take over the planet.
The Secret Invasion comic book event was a huge success and is widely regarded as one of the best Marvel storylines of all time. The Disney Plus series is being led by Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn, focusing on the aftermath of the events of Spider-Man: Far From Home and other Marvel projects.
The full Secret Invasion cast also includes Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, Kingsley Ben-Adir as Gravik, Emilia Clarke as G’iah, Don Cheadle as James “Rhodey” Rhodes and Martin Freeman as Everett K. Ross. Olivia Colman, Dermot Mulroney, Killian Scott, Christopher McDonald, Carmen Ejogo and Charlayne Woodard are also on board in undisclosed roles.
