Marvel Studios announces Zodiac for Disney+ in 2028
Marvel Studios announced Zodiac at New York Comic Con, a new Marvel Television series for Disney+ planned for release in 2028.
- In the official post on X, Marvel said Zodiac is coming to Disney+ in 2028; an exact release date has not been revealed.
- According to IGN, the series is being described as a spy project, but Marvel has not shared an official synopsis, cast, or character list yet.
What happened
Marvel Studios announced Zodiac on October 8, 2026, during New York Comic Con. In the studio’s official post on X, the account wrote: “JUST ANNOUNCED AT NYCC: Marvel Television’s Zodiac is coming to Disney+ in 2028.” That confirms it as a Marvel Television title and sets 2028 as the planned release year. The post does not mention an exact premiere date, episode count, or any further production details.
IGN reported that Zodiac is being positioned as a spy story, later described as a spy thriller. The same report also suggests that SHIELD could play a role, but Marvel has not officially confirmed that detail. There is still no concrete synopsis, cast list, or information about the main characters. No official showrunner, director, or writers’ room has been named in the available sources either.
According to IGN, Marvel wants to begin casting in the coming weeks, with filming currently planned for next year. Actor names, a production location, and a specific start date for shooting have not been announced. That means the series is currently confirmed mainly as an announcement with a broad release window, rather than a fully detailed production.
Taken together, the Marvel Studios post and the IGN report make it clear that Zodiac is being positioned as a Disney+ series. The available information suggests Marvel used NYCC to introduce a new television project under Marvel Television, but the studio has not yet provided any additional official details about the tone, setting, or place within the wider MCU.

Background
Zodiac is a new Marvel Television series in Marvel Studios’ Disney+ lineup. The only officially confirmed release detail in the available sources is the year 2028; more information about the story, cast, and production is still to come. Marvel has not confirmed any characters, plot details, or links to earlier MCU projects in the shared information.
The available sources also leave a number of open questions around the series. It is not known whether Samuel L. Jackson will be involved as Nick Fury, despite speculation in reporting about a possible SHIELD focus. It is also unclear whether SHIELD will actually be the central organization in the series or whether that is simply the source’s interpretation. Details such as the filming location, episode count, and a precise release plan within 2028 are also still missing.
For now, Zodiac is simply an officially announced Marvel Television project with a Disney+ release planned for 2028. The October 8, 2026 announcement and IGN’s follow-up reporting are the only concrete sources for the current information. More details on casting, production, and story will have to come from Marvel Studios later.
