In honor of Stan Lee's 100th birthday, Marvel announces a documentary celebrating the beloved comic book writer, set to debut on Disney+ in 2023.
Marvel announces a Stan Lee documentary is coming to Disney+ next year. The Marvel Cinematic Universe, the highest-grossing film franchise of all time, was built on the foundation of iconic comic book characters co-created by Lee and artists Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, including Spider-Man, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, and Nick Fury.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Now, on what would have been Lee's 100th birthday, some surprising news has been revealed. At the end of a sizzle reel comprised of Lee's many MCU cameos, Marvel announces that an original documentary titled Stan Lee is coming to Disney+ in 2023.
In terms of Lee's towering legacy, he left behind a massive imprint on modern superhero comics and cinema, so there is plenty for the documentary to cover there. During Lee's earlier years at Marvel Comics, he pioneered a more naturalistic approach to superhero comics through the introduction of his characters and later challenged the unreasonable restrictions imposed by the Comics Code Authority, resulting in the CCA altering its policies.
The Stan Lee documentary's purpose and tone will likely be similar to former MCU star Robert Downey Jr.'s recent Netflix documentary, "Sr.", which recounts the life and career of his late father, Robert Downey Sr., who was an influential underground filmmaker. The documentary finally earned Downey Jr. his first 100% Rotten Tomatoes score, and now, the newly announced Stan Lee documentary has a chance to earn similar critical acclaim.
