Marvel has finally confirmed the canon status ඣof its Netflix shows – and it turns out they are part of the MCU after all. 

Disney Plus features an official timeline for the MCU, with each project in chronological order. The Netflix shows – that's Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Defenders – are now part of the lineup, confirming they're part of the 🔴mainline canon (as spotted by ). 

Their canon status was unclear for quite some time, even as Charlie Cox's Daredevil has popped up in the MCU projects 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: No Way Home, She-Hulk, and Echo, while Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin had a part in Hawkeye (and also shows up in Echo). The shows themselves are fairly standalone, aside from vague references to the wider MCU (including to the Battle of New York, as depicted in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Avengers). 

Daredevil and Jessica Jones are sandwiched between I Am Groot and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Age of Ultron in the streamer's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel timeline, while Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Defenders fall between Ant-Man and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Captain America: Civil War

Daredevil is soon getting a Disney Plus reboot, too – while the show underwent a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:major overhaul behind the scenes, D'Onofrio has confirmed that the new series, titled Daredevil: Born Again, will 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:soon be getting in front of cameras

You can catch up with Daredevil and Kingpin with all episode𝄹s of E💙cho streaming now on Disney Plus, however. Next up for Marvel is Deadpool 3, which arrives this July 26.
