* While the character is associated heavily with the ''What If...?'' comics, and his species was introduced in ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'', Uatu the Watcher being confirmed as the narrator of the Disney+ series ''WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021'' is something that came as a surprise to a number of fans due to his association with the ''Fantastic Four'' IP, and by extension, those film rights. Most fans expected the characters to start being integrated at a much later point than 2021, in cameo capacities, but Uatu is the lead protagonist. He will become the third character from the Fox-Marvel library to be integrated into the MCU.[[note]]Although Ego the Living Planet was the first overall due to an agreement between Disney and Fox, Uatu is specifically tied to the Disney-Fox merger.

** Comicbook/MonicaRambeau of all people plays a big role in this series. Like Woo, she was only introduced as early as ''Film/CaptainMarvel2019'' as a young, but as a bright kid during the events of that film. As such, this series shows her having grown up significantly since her debut, now played by [[TimeShiftedActor Time Shifted Actress]] Teyonah Parris.
** [[spoiler:Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver appearing was a shock since he died in ''Age of Ultron'' but hadn't been seen since...but that's not the unexpected part. What's most unexpected is that he's ''not'' played by Creator/AaronTaylorJohnson; he's played by ''Creator/EvanPeters'' aka ''Peter Maximoff'' from the FOX ''Film/XMenFilmSeries''.]] [[spoiler:This ends up being subverted when it turns out Peters' character is actually a magically controlled victim of Agatha Harkness who isn't actually either version of Quicksilver, so it was ultimately just a CastingGag.]]

* [[Characters/MarvelComicsLoki Loki]] as the star of his own Disney+-series would count as unexpected, as the series was first announced in November 2018 - shortly after the theatrical release of ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' where Loki was KilledOffForReal by Thanos. Than, ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' came out and revealed that Loki won´t be BackFromTheDead but the series would center around an AlternateSelf from a branched timeline.

* [[Characters/HawkeyeKateBishop Kate Bishop]] is set to debut in the ''Hawkeye'' series where she takes up Clint's mantle. Because she's rather recent, the rest of the Young Avengers haven't debuted yet, and many assumed that Clint's daughter Lila Barton would be the MCU's equivalent to Kate Bishop, it was a surprise.

* ''ComicBook/MoonKnight'' getting his own series on Creator/DisneyPlus might just take the prize for least expected announcement in 2019. Not only is he a pretty damn small-time character in the comics with only a few short runs to his name, but the width of difference between those takes has left many people wondering what exactly they plan to do with him and what niche he's meant to fill going forward. Even those who ''were'' expecting him probably raised an eyebrow at him being added to Disney's proprietary streaming service given the Moon Knight mythos is packed to capacity with family-unfriendly content, to the point many expected that if he ''did'' show up it would be on Netflix with other shows based on similarly adult franchises. Indeed, Disney+ got a parental lock and site-wide update notifying that it would be hosting hard [=PG-13=]/[=R-rated=] content just in time to keep the enhanced violence of ''Moon Knight'' not that widely available for minors.

* Nobody expected ''Ms. Marvel''[='s=] villains to be based on the book [[spoiler:''ComicBook/ClanDestine'']]. The characters are extremely obscure thanks to very limited appearances (maybe a grand total of 20-odd issues altogether); and they have zero connection to Kamala -- in fact, the last time they appeared (in a handful of Annual issues in 2012) was before Kamala had even ''existed'' (her series launched in 2014).
