Widespread changes in the Marvel section on Disney Plus' official site could point to several delays across the MCU and beyond, as previous release date windows have been removed from each upcoming show’s description.
Since the turn of the year, Marvel fans have been met with news and statements from Disney's CEO Bob Iger and Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige regarding a shift in how the company handles its superhero business, with a renewed emphasis on quality over quantity. While that approach initially looked like it could only apply to a few new series announced more recently, the extent to which it will affect the MCU remains unclear.

Nevertheless, leave it to Disney itself to spark fan speculation. Over the last few days, some Reddit users noted that previous premiere windows for content like Marvel Studios' What If…? or X-Men '97 are absent.

The animated What If…? was initially planned for “Early 2023,” similar to the three live-action series whose release dates ranged from late 2023 to early 2024.

However, it’s still widely believed they will come out around the beginning and end of summer, respectively.
