The Marvel TV universe is expanding.
A new live-action series called Zodiac is set to debut on Disney+ in 2028. Brad Winderbaum, the head of Marvel Television, Animation, Comics & Franchise, made the announcement at Marvel Television and Marvel Animation’s New York Comic Con panel on Thursday.
“It’s a spy thriller,” Winderbaum said. “And for anyone who knows the comics, if you look closely at this title design, you’ll see a few clues about where we’re going.”
Zodiac is set to start shooting in London in spring 2027.
“I can’t tell you anything else about it yet because it’s a secret,” Winderbaum said during the panel. “We’re going to start casting it in a couple weeks.”
This new series marks the first live-action Marvel show announced since 2025’s Ironheart. The series Wonder Man premiered in January but was eventually canceled despite originally scoring a second season renewal and an Emmy nomination for its star, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
As for upcoming Marvel series, VisionQuest is set to premiere on Disney+ Oct. 14. It marks the end to the trilogy of shows that also includes WandaVision and Agatha All Along. Daredevil: Born Again, meanwhile, will return for its third and final season in 2027.
Disney is the parent company of ABC News, Disney+ and Marvel Television.

This is real, this is me, I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be — to watch the new teaser trailer for Camp Rock 3.
Disney has released the second teaser trailer for the third film in the Camp Rock franchise. It finds the Jonas Brothers returning as the brothers of the fictional band Connect 3, and will premiere to Disney Channel on Aug. 13 and Disney+ the next day.
While the first trailer focused on the familiar faces of Joe Jonas, Kevin Jonas and Nick Jonas, this new teaser showcases the next generation of campers taking center stage. It also features a first look at the film’s new song “One Beat Away.”
Camp Rock 3 follows Connect 3 as they lose the opening act for their major reunion tour. The band returns to Camp Rock with the hope of discovering the next big thing.
“As campers vie for the chance to open for their favorite band, tensions rise, and friendships are tested, leading to unexpected alliances, revelations and romances,” according to an official synopsis.
New cast members in the third film include Liamani Segura, Malachi Barton, Lumi Pollack, newcomer Hudson Stone, Casey Trotter, Brooklynn Pitts, Ava Jean and Sherry Cola.
The trailer shows Segura’s Sage finding Mitchie Torres’ old songbook covered in dust.
“I’m gonna be Connect 3’s opening act, and nothing’s gonna throw me off my game,” Sage says before she’s knocked to the ground by Barton’s Fletch.
Veronica Rodriguez directs Camp Rock 3 from a script by Eydie Faye. The Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato all executive produce the new film, although Lovato will not reprise her role of Mitchie. Wizards of Waverly Place star Maria Canals-Barrera is returning to portray Mitchie’s mother, Connie Torres.

Tom Cruise is trading action for dark comedy in his new film Digger.
The film, out on Oct. 2, follows Cruise as Digger Rockwell, described in a synopsis for the movie as “the most powerful man in the world” who “embarks on a frantic mission to prove he is humanity’s savior before the disaster he’s unleashed destroys everything.”
“This is a story about power, greed — about responsible and being irresponsible,” Cruise told ABC News’ Chris Connelly in an interview about his character. “He’s trying to control things that are just — you can’t control it. It’s not going to happen.”
When the film’s official trailer was released in July, many saw Cruise’s transformation as Digger for the first time. In the trailer, the actor is almost unrecognizable in prosthetics and costume.
Also starring in the film are Sandra Hüller, John Goodman and Oscar winner Riz Ahmed.
Ahmed recalled working with Cruise and described the feeling on set as “intimidating.”
“For the first few days, I didn’t have to act,” he told ABC News. “It was intimidating to be on set. With him as Digger Rockwell, there was this hurricane, this kind of operatic character coming at you 100 miles per hour.”
Hüller also weighed in on working with Cruise and said, “He wants to know what other people think. We could collaborate on that very much, so we were creating things together. The mood on set was so special and always positive and playful. It could have gone on forever. That’s my memory of it. We really had a lot of fun. I really had a lot of fun.”
Cruise told ABC News that he first heard about Digger eight years ago after meeting with director Alejandro G. Iñarritu, who previously directed The Revenant and Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance). Cruise said it was also the same day as the first shooting day for Top Gun: Maverick.
Leading up to filming for Digger, Cruise was wrapping up filming on Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.
Ahmed reflected on the actor’s work ethic and nonstop energy.
“He was doing that kind of thing,” Ahmed said. “When we were in rehearsal, we were all exhausted. And Tom’s like, ‘All right, I’m getting in the water tank now.’ The what? He’s going into a sub-zero temperature water tank to do a true-life stunt for a mission. He’s gonna fly himself there on a helicopter! There’s just a relentless kind of dynamo energy here that’s inspiring to be around.”
Cruise said, “It’s so fun, because I’m learning constantly.”
The actor, who has starred in eight Mission: Impossible films, Edge of Tomorrow, War of the Worlds, Jack Reacher and more, has become synonymous with high-octane, high-energy action films.
And before playing Maverick in the 1986 film Top Gun, Cruise starred in the romantic drama Endless Love, the coming-of-age teen comedy Risky Business and more, cementing himself as a leading man in Hollywood.
But prior to making a name for himself in Hollywood, Cruise worked a number of odd jobs, including being a superintendent’s assistant in New York City, working on daily maintenance of a building.
“I would have to go down and fix their stuff and I was a handyman before, I had many jobs growing up,” he said. “I had to go down and fix their heat, I shoveled the ice every day, I made sure that the garbage was taken out, yeah I took care of it. Whatever you need.”
Reflecting on his film career, Cruise called it a “real gift.”
“I dreamed of a life to be able to do this for the rest of my life as a kid,” he said. “And every day, I’m thinking, ‘You know what? I can’t control what’s going to happen. But what I can control is I can just do the best I can.'”
