Marvel Admits The MCU Is Too Much To Watch

We’re fine with this: a return to the quieter stories like the first Iron Man would be preferable to almost every show and film involving saving the world.

But Marvel already had these kinds of grounded stories on Netflix with Daredevil, Jessica Jones, The Punisher, and Luke Cage, and it seems Disney is belatedly realizing Disney+ subscribers also crave grittier characters and stories.

If Echo is any indication, Marvel Spotlight may deliver some of the grittiest MCU content of all: the show is notably the first Marvel show to get a TV-MA rating.

That means this and future Spotlight shows could get even darker than the aforementioned Netflix shows, all of which were basically the opposite of kid-friendly.
