MarvelStudios has finally announced whenDeadpool & Wolverinewill be streaming on Disney+. 2024 was one of the biggest years for Marvel Studios, following a few struggles in 2023 forthe Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline. Not only did Ryan Reynolds' Wade Wilson make his way into the MCU, butDeadpool & Wolverine, also featuring Hugh Jackman back as the beloved X-Men hero, became one of the biggest box office winners of the year.
Disney+ recently unveiled a new Marvel Studios sizzle reel confirming multiple releases for upcoming Marvel TV shows on the platform. However,the streaming service also gave the last big remaining update forDeadpool & Wolverine, with the Phase 5 movie officially starting streaming on Disney+ as of Tuesday, November 12.
The sizzle reel for the Marvel TV shows includes brand new looks atDaredevil: Born Again,Ironheart,What If…?season 3,Wonder Man, as well as the new animated seriesYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,Eyes of Wakanda, andMarvel Zombies. WhileDeadpool & Wolverinewas the only MCU theatrical release for 2024,2025 will be a different story, as multiple films are set to arrive for both Phases 5 and 6.
What This Means For Deadpool & Wolverine
FollowingDeadpool & Wolverinedebuting nearly four months ago,Marvel Studios have taken a longer time to get the release out on Disney+, as they continued its theatrical run while passing additional milestones at the worldwide box office. At the time of this story’s publication,Deadpool & Wolverinehas already hit Digital Download, while its home media release happened on October 22. But for audience members who prefer their MCU content through Disney+, November 12 will mark the end of a considerable waiting period.
At the same time, it makes sense why Marvel Studios waited as long as they did forDeadpool & Wolverineto land a Disney+ release date. From its critical reception about the overall story to allthe Marvel cameos inDeadpool & Wolverine,the Phase 5 movie became a big cinematic event for 2024, bringing more people back into theaters. However, with that in mind, it will still be fascinating to see howDeadpool & Wolverineperforms on Disney+, especially worldwide, and whether futureupcoming MCU releaseswill mirror this release time frame.
Our Take On Deadpool & Wolverine’s Disney+ Release Date
IfDeadpool & Wolverineis any indicator, should future MCU films likeThe Fantastic Four: First StepsandThunderboltsin 2025 face similar success, the audience may need to start expecting the same amount of waiting whenever those movies hit Disney+. It might also show that Disney, in general, is trying to get people to move away from the idea of skipping seeing something in theaters only to be able to see it on Disney+ a month later. But thankfully, as of November 12, there will be even more opportunity available for audiences to watch and reliveDeadpool & Wolverine.
