It's a great time to be a Marvel fan.
Following the drought of content in 2020, this year has brought fans WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. But the best part? Marvel is just getting started.
In addition to Black Widow (finally!) releasing in theaters on July 9, the studio also plans to release Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings, The Eternals, and Spider-Man: No Way Home which may or may not be a Spidey ensemble.
But before fans head back to theaters, Marvel's next Disney+ series Loki is set to drop on June 9. And due to its time-traveling aspects, the God of Mischief himself, and Owen Wilson's debut in the MCU, fan anticipation is at an all-time high.
MCU WATCH PARTIES FOR THOR AND AVENGERS: ENDGAME ANNOUNCED FOR DISNEY+
In anticipation of the upcoming release of Marvel's Loki series on Disney+, the House of Mouse has scheduled weekly watch parties to tide fans over.
Each Wednesday, fans are encouraged to watch a specific MCU film featuring the God of Mischief and Tweet along using #LokiWednesday.
Here's a look at the "Loki Wednesdays" Schedule:
- May 12 at 5 PM PT: Thor
- May 19 at 4 PM PT: The Avengers and Thor: The Dark World
- May 26 at 5 PM PT: Thor: Ragnarok
- June 2 at 4 PM PT: Avengers: Infinity War & Avengers: Endgame
WEDNESDAYS BURDENED WITH GLORIOUS PURPOSE
Marvel's latest sizzle reel celebrating what the MCU has been until now and what the studio has in store also emphasized the shared experience that fans have had in theaters.
And even though the world isn't quite back to normal just yet, it's headed in the right direction and fans will be able to assemble in theaters again.
But in the meantime, an event like "Loki Wednesdays" allows fans to interact with one another and have somewhat of a shared experience from a distance while also promoting this new Marvel story.
And just maybe, the time between now and Loki's own time-traveling series will pass a little quicker!
