MCU fans are getting treated to first looks at Marvel Studios’ upcoming projects at New York Comic-Con, and leaks have already sprung out of the major convention. A brand-new Marvel logo was unveiled to attendees this week, revealing images from Captain America: Brave New World and The Fantastic Four: First Steps that include Red Hulk (Harrison Ford) and the superhero team’s robotic sidekick, respectively.
While attending New York Comic-Con, The Direct (via Discussing Film) published a first look at Marvel Studios’ new logo that features their upcoming slate of movies, TV shows, and games. Front and center is Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk, who makes his highly-anticipated debut in Captain America: Brave New World. It’s the clearest look at the anti-hero yet, and a striking resemblance to the Indiana Jones actor. Meanwhile, the logo also includes the first official look at H.E.R.B.I.E., a robot that will serve as the sidekick to Marvel’s first family in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The reveal comes soon after fans got a chance to see Joseph Quinn’s Human Torch in action in leaked set photos.
It’s unclear if Marvel will release anything else officially, but it’s safe to say the new logo is not the only thing the studio has up their sleeve for New York Comic-Con. Previously, Kevin Feige had shown fans a teaser for The Fantastic Four and Daredevil: Born Again at San Diego Comic-Con. Both trailers could be officially released to the public later this week, although an official Fantastic Four tease seems unlikely as the film is still in production. Still, expect more about the revamped MCU slate sooner rather than later.
The future of the MCU looks quite different from what it had last time Feige and co. announced the Multiverse Saga. Instead of releasing three films per year, as well as several shows on Disney+, Marvel Studios slowed down their output in 2024, only releasing the R-rated box office hit Deadpool & Wolverine in theaters. Of course, things will get ramped up a lot in 2025, but the measured approach from Marvel as of late is not a mistake. Next, fans can expect to meet the new Captain America on the big screen with Brave New World, while The Fantastic Four: First Steps finally makes it way back into relevancy with its MCU debut. Marvel’s response to DC’s Suicide Squad, Thunderbolts*, recently got a hard-hitting trailer teasing the movie’s arrival next summer.

“I think we hit on a really important discussion about cultural appropriation,” said the MCU actor.
On the Disney+ side of things, Marvel will look to go back to several shows, as Agatha All Along manages to impress audiences with unexpected connections to the MCU. Obviously, the big story is that Daredevil is finally getting a new follow-up with Charlie Cox back in the saddle for Born Again. Ironheart, which got delayed from premiering this year even though it was filmed well before several other MCU projects, is expected to hit the streaming service next year. Meanwhile, the Black Panther spinoff series Eyes of Wakanda is still on its way to Disney+ for a 2025 debut, although development has been kept under lock and key for quite some time.
Captain America: Brave New World (formerly titled New World Order) marks Sam Wilson’s first MCU big-screen appearance as Steve Rogers’ successor after receiving the suit and shield in Phase 4’s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Anthony Mackie returns as the titular Avenger alongside Danny Ramirez as Joaquin Torres, Carl Lumby as Isaiah Bradley, and Tim Blake Nelson as The Incredible Hulk’s former ally Samuel Sterns. Harrison Ford makes his MCU debut replacing the late William Hurt as Thaddeus Ross.
