When Netflix and Marvel first announced their deal — one which resulted in five original series and a crossover event — fans of the comic book empire’s movie efforts were excited to see the Marvel Cinematic Universe translated to the small screen. But other than a few sly references, Daredevil, Luke Cage, and the other Netflix shows stayed in their own lane, content to explore street-level stories and all but disconnect from the larger MCU.
That strategy was relatively successful, but it won’t be the same approach that Marvel takes for its upcoming Disney+ shows. Speaking with ComicBook.com, Kevin Feige noted that all of Marvel’s Disney+ productions will be handled by Marvel Studios (the movie division) rather than the TV division. Therefore, they will connect to the MCU (Avengers, Iron Man, Black Panther, Thor) in ways that the Netflix shows never did.
