New Marvel Animated Universe: Following the cancellation of Marvel's Avengers Assemble, Marvel has signed a deal to produce six new animated series for the Disney XD channel.

The new animated series focused on Captain America will premiere in July 2013, on Disney XD. The show's animation will be largely influenced by the animation style used for Avengers Assemble; the tone will also be familiar between both shows. The show will focus on the character of Steve Rogers as he adjusts to a modern world, whilst working with S.H.I.E.L.D. members such as Hawkeye, Falcon, Agent 13, Black Widow, Nick Fury, Jimmy Woo, Jasper Sitwell and Maria Hill.

The Mysterious Doctor Strange
The show based around the sorcerer supreme will focus on Steven Strange and Wong recruiting and training the young Clea, all whilst battling the forces of darkness. The series will feature a The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes animation style and will explore Doctor Strange's secretive origins. It is expected to premiere on Disney XD, in August 2013.

Ultimate Avengers
The series was announced following the cancellation of Marvel's Avengers Assemble and is expected to premiere on Disney XD in mid-2014. The show's writers have confirmed that the show will feature elements pulled from both the Ultimate and mainstream comics.

Deadpool Unchained
This will be a new take on the animated universe with a very comedic centered superhero who never fails to do the right thing. The show's animation has been described as "cutting edge" with a balanced mix of CGI and 2D work.

Unannounced projects
Rumours have lead to speculation that the remaining two shows could be based on any of these characters: Thor, Ant-Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Silver Surfer, Nova or Ghost Rider.
