Disney+ New Releases: January 2021

2020, cursed year that it was, represented the first turn of the calendar since 2009 that did not feature an entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With its list of new releases for January 2021, Disney+ is set to immediately rectify that. Not only is WandaVision the first new MCU installment since 2019’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, it’s the first ever Marvel television show from Marvel Studios’ reordering under content czar Kevin Feige.

WandaVision is set to premiere on Jan. 15 and will feature two beloved MCU characters Wanda Maximoff a.k.a. Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and The Vision (Paul Bettany). As the trailers reveal, this series will find Wanda and Vis living in domestic bliss in before discovering all is not what it seems. The series will pay homage to classic TV sitcoms and premiere new episodes each Friday.

WandaVision is understandably the only major Disney+ Original arriving this month (because when you’ve got Marvel, what else do you need?), but 10 new episodes of charming Jim Henson Company series Earth to Ned will be arriving on Jan. 1 as well.

Library titles of note include Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who! and The Wolverine on Jan. 1, Isle of Dogs on Jan. 15, and all four seasons of Dinosaurs on Jan. 29.
