    Do you think The Gifted, Elektra, Daredevil (2003) and M.O.D.O.K. will join D+Star Marvell gallery? Thanks!

    1. ScionStorm January 2, 2021

      The Wolverine is out on Disney+. So Gifted, Daredevil and Elektra will probably just be out on regular Disney+ after they released the rest of the (non-R) X-Men films and Fantastic Four, whenever the current streaming contracts for them end. Now we just have to hope Disney+ can snag a streaming contract with Sony for their Spider-Man content. And those 2 Ghost Rider movies I guess.
