There are currently handfuls of all kinds of podcasts and Youtube channels covering all things Marvel, but now Marvel themselves wants to jump in on the podcast space.
Check out the announcement for The Official Marvel Podcast:
Dive into the Marvel universe for the latest news, interviews, and exclusive surprises on The Official Marvel Podcast! Marvel’s stars and creators talk about what’s coming up next and celebrate the legacy of their favorite Marvel adventures and characters.
The first big guest for the show is the studio’s president Kevin Feige who should have some interesting insight on what we should expect down the line. I would also love to listen about some behind-the-scenes details and how they’ve been course-correcting after every entry since Endgame came out in theaters.
For now, it seems that podcasts have become a staple when it comes to adding audience engagement. We know all about after-shows, but podcasts for series like The Last of Us and House of the Dragon allow for more free-flowing discussion and we get to listen about more in-depth discussions as compared to carefully written and edited articles.
With a franchise as secretive and as vast as Marvel, a podcast would be the perfect venue to cover anything that was incoming, from upcoming films like Deadpool and Wolverine to games like the hotly anticipated Overwatch clone, Marvel Rivals.
No official release date has been announced for The Official Marvel Podcast, but we should expect it to launch sometime later this year.
