Netflix has been slowly killing its Marvel shows, apparently related to the upcoming launch of Disney's Disney + proprietary streaming service. Now Kevin Mayer of Disneys, the Direct Contracting Chair, has left the door open to revive these shows on his own channel as soon as he starts sometime in 2019.
"These are very high quality shows," Mayer told the Hollywood Reporter. "We have not discussed that yet, but I would say that's a possibility."
It is anything but a commitment, but there is certainly more hope for more consequences than previously thought. Netflix has stopped the shows gradually, mostly shortly after the release of the last season. It met Iron Fist, then Luke Cage and last Daredevil. Only Jessica Jones and The Punisher stop, but with Punisher's next season scheduled for January and JJ's coming soon, both are likely to appear for the Hack Block.
Disney has already announced a series of series for its own streaming service, including the original Marvel gaming series. These plans include a series that revolves around the favorite character Loki. It follows on from some Star Wars projects, including a series with Rogue One character Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) and another called The Mandalorian. These are some big plans that may make Disney even more reluctant to show more shows.
On the other hand, the Netflix series are already viewed critically. Daredevil game was especially celebrated for his first and third season, the latter ended with a cliffhanger. When Disney revives it, fans can see how this action pays off.
