The four-episode series *Marvel Zombies* premiered on September 24, 2025, and is packed with nods to the wider Marvel universe, especially its movies. These references add an extra layer of enjoyment for fans.
Here is a complete list of references and easter eggs that made this series stand out.
Here are all the major MCU references in Marvel Zombies:
- Red Guardian vs Captain America- This iconic sequence saw the Red Guardian finally face off against at least more than half of Captain America (his lower half was severed by his own shield).
- The North Institute- After its part in 2020’s Back Widow, The North Institute in Ohio made an appearance in Marvel Zombies.
- Ms. Marvel v Captain Marvel- Interestingly, this turned Ms. Marvel’s narrative on its head with Kamal Khan having to take on Captain Marvel’s undead version in the dark MCU timeline.
- The Hulk Containment Cell- A reference to the original Avengers, where a cell was built to contain the Hulk in case he went into his rage mode. Zemo activated a containment cell on Namor that was originally meant for the Hulk.
- What If…? zombie survivors- This clever move saw how Marvel Zombies integrated What If…?’s zombie episode into the narrative. Marvel Zombies episode 3 opened by revealing what happened to the survivors of that episode from What If…?
- The Watcher- The Watcher also returned to this project in his familiar role, connecting it to other Marvel animated projects.
- Wanda chasing after a kid- This time, Wanda wanted Ms. Marvel’s powers to amplify her own. This is a reference to Multiverse of Madness, where Wanda also chased after a kid, but for completely different reasons, of course.
- Zombie Thor v Infinity Hulk- A great reference to the iconic Thor: Ragnarok fight scene, this reference saw an upgraded Thor taking on an upgraded Hulk.
Referencing these sources is a great way to acknowledge their influence while still keeping this work fresh and original.
Marvel Zombies is now streaming on Disney+.
