Marvel Studios has set a new milestone with Eyes of Wakanda, the first Disney+ series of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) Phase 6. The animated Black Panther spin-off spans more than 3,000 years, marking the largest time jump ever covered in an MCU streaming project.
The four-episode series explores key moments in Wakanda’s history, beginning in 1260 BC and ending in 1896 AD. Episode timelines include “Into the Lion’s Den” (1260 BC), “Legends and Lies” (1200 BC), “Lost and Found” (1400 AD), and “The Last Panther” (1896 AD). In total, the narrative covers 3,129 years.
Previously, the longest time span in an MCU Disney+ series was Agatha All Along, which stretched from 1750 to 2027 — a difference of 277 years.
While Eyes of Wakanda sets a streaming record, the overall MCU record still belongs to Eternals, which depicted events across 7,000 years. Some fans also point to Loki, which jumped through history from Pompeii in 79 AD to the far-future “End of Time,” though much of that story unfolded outside the traditional timeline.
The new series features performances from Winnie Harlow, Larry Herron, Jacques Colimon, Steve Toussaint, and Zeke Alton. Actor Cress Williams, known from DC’s Arrowverse, also joins the MCU as a major villain.
Eyes of Wakanda is part of Marvel’s Phase 6 rollout, which began with The Fantastic: First Steps. Upcoming titles include Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Avengers: Doomsday, Secret Wars, and Vision Quest, among others.
