Fans worldwide are buzzing today after Marvel Animation dropped a highly anticipated sneak peek at their upcoming Disney+ series, “Eyes of Wakanda.” This short but impactful teaser has given us our first real look into the animated anthology, set to explore the rich and untold history of the most technologically advanced nation on Earth.
Slated to premiere on Disney+ on August 27, 2025, “Eyes of Wakanda” is an exciting departure for Marvel Animation, as it’s confirmed to be set within the sacred MCU timeline. This means the events and characters we see will have a direct impact on the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, adding layers of depth to the lore we already know and love.
The series will delve into the stories of the Hatut Zaraze, Wakanda’s elite “War Dogs” or secret agents, tasked with retrieving dangerous Vibranium artifacts that have been discovered throughout history. From what the teaser hints at, we’re in for a globe-trotting spy-espionage adventure spanning centuries, offering glimpses into different eras of Wakandan prowess and the challenges they faced to protect their secrets.
The animation style itself looks striking, with a hand-painted aesthetic that promises to be a visual feast. The voice cast is equally impressive, featuring talents such as Winnie Harlow, Cress Williams, Patricia Belcher, Lynn Whitfield, Steve Toussaint, Anika Noni Rose, and many more.
Executive produced by Ryan Coogler (director of Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), this series is clearly in good hands. Coogler, alongside showrunner and director Todd Harris, seems poised to deliver a fresh and captivating perspective on Wakanda, moving beyond just the Black Panther mantle to showcase the brave warriors who shaped its hidden destiny.
Get ready to uncover “many secrets” when “Eyes of Wakanda” arrives on Disney+ this August. We can’t wait to see the untold stories of this legendary nation unfold.
