Marvel shared a sizzle reel on its official Twitter account that offered first glimpses of Ironheart, Daredevil: Born Again, and Thunderbolts*. However, the 60-second video was quickly deleted.

The video, which celebrates 85 years of Marvel movies, TV shows, and comics, pays special homage to Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko. The clip also features a young Kevin Feige referring to Marvel as "The House of Ideas." In a brief red carpet interview included in the montage, Tom Hiddleston reflects on being cast as Loki, saying, "Marvel is this massive canvas through which all of our humanity is explored."

The reel also shows quick snippets of Ironheart flying, Charlie Cox's Daredevil staring intensely at the camera, and the Thunderbolts team arriving in an elevator. Although Marvel removed the touching tribute from social media shortly after posting it, it's likely to be reuploaded soon.

Ironheart, a six-episode spin-off from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever starring Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, is slated for release on Disney Plus in December 2025. Daredevil: Born Again, with Charlie Cox returning as the titular character, is set to premiere in March 2025 with two seasons already ordered. Thunderbolts*, featuring Florence Pugh and Sebastian Stan, is scheduled to hit theaters on April 30, 2025 (and yes, the asterisk is part of the title).
