Marvel Television has reportedly placed three shows, Nova, Strange Academy, and Terror, Inc., on hold. Sources at Deadline indicate these projects lacked official greenlights and their future remains uncertain, though not definitively canceled. Marvel's strategic shift in priorities is the cited reason.
This change coincides with Marvel Studios' upcoming Disney+ series, Daredevil: Born Again. Brad Winderbaum, head of streaming and TV at Marvel Studios, recently confirmed the studio's exploration of reuniting the Defenders—Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist—for future projects.

Marvel Studios is currently prioritizing the development of numerous shows, but as Winderbaum stated to Screen Rant last year, the studio is exercising caution in selecting future projects.
The Nova series postponement is particularly surprising, especially considering Ed Bernero's recent attachment as writer and showrunner just two months prior, with the series previously confirmed for Disney+. (See IGN's comprehensive Nova coverage for details.)
Strange Academy, anticipated to center around Doctor Strange's magic school with Wong as headmaster, is also affected. Information regarding Terror, Inc. remains scarce.
Confirmed Marvel TV release dates include: Daredevil: Born Again (March 4th, Disney+), Ironheart (June 24th, Disney+), and Wonder Man (December, Disney+). Following Captain America: Brave New World, three MCU films are slated for release this year: Thunderbolts (May) and The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
