While there’s still some uncertainty as to how Marvel TV will fit into things after Disney finishes acquiring Fox and we see the Disney+ service really get going, it looks like they’re going to get some projects onto Hulu. The deal that was struck will definitely have people remembering how Netflix got their Marvel TV deal underway as there are four animated series announced that come together in a team-up special.
The big project that will get the most recognition in the mainstream, which is weird to say, is the Howard the Duck series. It goes back to the comics and has Kevin Smith and Dave Willis involved in it.
The next show is Marvel’s Tigra & Dazzler Show where Chelsea Handler will serve as an executive producer and will write it with Eric Rivinoja. The premise involves the two trying to get their lives together in Los Angeles.
Marvel’s Hit-Monkey and Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. are going to have Josh Gordon and Will Speck running it with Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum. The Hit Monkey is described as “a pissed off Japanese snow monkey who tries to take on and take down Tokyo’s crime underworld with the ghost of an American assassin by his side” while MODOK focuses on the supervillain with ego and family issues.
All of that will come together with the crossover special The Offenders.
