The untitled Jimmy Woo series is a potential American television series created for the streaming service Disney+, based on the Marvel Comics character Jimmy Woo. It is intended to be part of the television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produced by Marvel Studios, sharing continuity with the films of the franchise, and would be a spin-off from the series WandaVision (2021).

A series centered on Randall Park's Jimmy Woo had a pitch written by Stephen Sean Ford in February 2021.

Production

Development

After the release of " We Interrupt This Program", the fourth episode of the Disney+ series WandaVision (2021), in late January 2021, Stephen Sean Ford suggested a spin-off series centered on Randall Park's character Jimmy Woo to be made for Disney+. He described it as following Woo "working weird cases" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) in the style of a "fun X-Files". Ford said he did not want to promote anything with the series and just wanted to direct one of the episodes, and suggested that Peyton Reed, the director of Marvel Studios's Ant-Man films, help make the concept, ^[1] as Park debuted as Woo in the film Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018). ^[2] Early the next month, Ford revealed that he would shortly begin writing his pitch for such a series, ^[3] but it was unclear if he had set an official meeting with Marvel Studios regarding it. ^[2] Some commentators suggested the series could co-star Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis, also from WandaVision, and be an adaptation of the comic team Agents of Atlas; ^{[4] [2]} Park expressed interest in both and said he wanted to work with Dennings again on such a project. ^[4] WandaVision creator and head writer Jac Schaeffer said she was not opposed to the spin-off idea and said it was among the series she would consider signing on to run. ^[5] In May 2021, Schaeffer signed a three-year overall television deal with Marvel Studios to develop additional projects for the studio's Disney+ content. ^[6]
