I Watched All Four Episodes of Marvel Zombies on Disney+, and I Wish It Had More Brains to Go with Its Hyperviolent Brawn

Marvel Zombies premieres as a four-episode R-rated series on Disney+, praised for its gore but criticized for weak plot and character development, according to early reviews.

  • On September 24, 2025, Marvel Zombies premiered on Disney+ as a four-episode mini-series released all at once and Marvel Animation's first TV-MA project.
  • Picking up five years after the What If...? Zombies! episode, Zeb Wells and Bryan Andrews developed the series, which shifted from a planned two-hour film due to Spider-Man rights.
  • More than 15 MCU actors return, including Iman Vellani, Dominique Thorne and Hailee Steinfeld, as Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop / Hawkeye and Riri Williams / Ironheart lead a globetrotting quest with frequent gore and a large finale.
  • Critics recently noted the series' gore drew praise even as its plot drew criticism, highlighting inconsistent voice actors and a short runtime that hindered character development.
  • Marvel Animation's bold turn into adult horror positions animation as a playground for wild MCU ideas, bringing Blade Knight fully into the MCU and spotlighting Phase 4 and 5 MCU characters to boost spin-off interest.
