Marvel has finally (officially) unveiled a first look at Daredevil’s return, the Thunderbolts, Ironheart, and Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk.
This morning Marvel revealed a new trailer celebrating its 85th anniversary. In the clip, Marvel both pays homage to the late Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko in archival footage interviews and photos. But interspersed in its retrospective look at the first issues of Spider-Man and the Avengers comics and Marvel Cinematic Universe clips of Iron Man Deadpool, and the X Men—signaling where Marvel has been in the latter half of its 85 years—is a brief peek at where the comic book juggernaut is headed next. More specifically, we got a sneak peek of Charlie Cox’s Daredevil as he’ll appear in Born Again, the Thunderbolts, Riri William’s reprisal as Ironheart, and an eyeful of Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk.
Celebrating 85 years of Marvel, thanks to you, True Believers.

As mentioned earlier, this isn’t the first time this trailer has graced the internet. In fact, Marvel accidentally tweeted and swiftly deleted this first look extravaganza last week. Folks who were in attendance at San Diego Comic-Con also got a peek at the above characters so, if anything, the video today is for all the fans who couldn’t make the trip and didn’t catch ripped versions of the trailer floating around the internet. Kudos to you.
In the meantime, Marvel fans can look forward to seeing each of these iconic characters in action in their respective upcoming projects. The closest of which being Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World, coming to theaters on February 14, 2025. Next up is Disney+’s long-awaited revival of Daredevil, Daredevil: Born Again, coming to the streamer that following March. Likewise, The Thunderbolts is slated to release on May 2 and Ironheart long-delayed show will premiere on the Disney+ sometime in 2025 as well.
