Summary
- The release date for The Marvels on Disney+ is likely to be similar to previous MCU movies, with a minimum 45-day window between theatrical release and streaming arrival.
- The earliest potential release date for The Marvels on Disney+ is December 23, 2023, just in time for the holidays.
- However, The Marvels could also follow in other MCU movies' footsteps and arrive on Disney+ three months after its theatrical release, which would be around February 10, 2024.
The Marvels' Disney+ release date window is likely to be similar to previous MCU movies from Phases 4 and 5. Released on November 10, 2023, The Marvels follows up on multiple MCU titles, mainly Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, WandaVision, and Secret Invasion. Hence, its release date had to raise anticipation for the crossover, but also stay close to those previous MCU movies and shows to keep the audience hooked. With The Marvels' confirmed budget being one of the highest in the MCU to date, its theatrical release period is key to its success before Disney+ brings the movie to streaming.
One of The Marvels' biggest challenges is precisely merging the MCU's theatrical and Disney+ stories together, leaving Ms. Marvel and WandaVision to explain who exactly is the MCU's Kamala Khan and where Monica Rambeau's powers come from, but also keeping the context easy to understand for viewers who haven't caught up with the shows yet. The Marvels also needs to work as a direct sequel to 2019's Captain Marvel, weaving Carol Danvers' nearly 30-year absence from Earth into the plot's background. Although, when The Marvel arrives on Disney+, watching all the protagonists' MCU journey so far might become easier.
The Marvels Can Release On Disney+ As Early As December 23, 2023
The MCU has kept a release window of at least 45 days between each movie's theatrical release and its respective Disney+ arrival. This has worked for movies as commercially successful as Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, so it's possible that Marvel Studios will do the same with The Marvels. Taking this into account,
the 45-day window for The Marvels since its November 10 theatrical release would be Thursday, December 23, 2023, just in time for the holidays.
