Marvel’s Supernatural Corner Heats Up: WEREWOLF BY NIGHT 2 Gets a Promising Update
Marvel’s creepy fun supernatural corner of the MCU is stirring again as Werewolf by Night 2 is reportedly in development, and it might be leading us straight into the Midnight Sons.
It’s been nearly two years since Marvel Studios dropped the surprise hit Werewolf by Night on Disney+, introducing fans to Jack Russell (Gael García Bernal), Elsa Bloodstone (Laura Donnelly), and the lovable swamp beast Man-Thing.
The Halloween special was a awesome stylistic curveball and still stands as one of Marvel’s most critically praised Disney+ projects, currently holding a 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes. So naturally, fans have been waiting (and asking) for more.
Now, according to a new report, that wait may finally be paying off. Marvel Studios is said to be developing multiple supernatural-themed projects designed to feed directly into the long-rumored Midnight Sons film.
One of those projects is the sequel to Werewolf by Night. That means Jack Russell is likely howling at the moon once again, and this time, it could be alongside even more supernatural heavy-hitters.
The report aligns with an earlier claim that Marvel has already brought on a writer for the Midnight Sons script, though exact story details remain under wraps.
There is, however, a rumor circulating that Ghost Rider could lead the team in the MCU.
For those unfamiliar, the Midnight Sons comics gathered characters like Ghost Rider, Blade, Moon Knight, Doctor Strange, and Elsa Bloodstone to fight occult threats. With Marvel already dabbling in the supernatural, it seems the pieces are quietly being put in place for a full-on supernatural saga.
While Marvel hasn’t made any official announcements, this latest development suggests the studio is ready to pull the trigger on its darker, weirder corner of the MCU, and Werewolf by Night 2 might just be the key to unlocking it!
