Of all the Marvel characters we expected to get a Disney+ show, obscure horror monster Werewolf By Night would probably have been one of the least likely. But Marvel head honcho Kevin Fiege apparently has big plans for the character.

The Werewolf By Night Halloween Special premiered on Disney+ Hotstar today, and is directed by Michael Giacchino. The TV special is the first ‘Marvel Studios Special Presentation’ in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and stars Gael García Bernal as Jack Russell, a.k.a Werewolf by Night.
