Twitterati's mixed reactions to the Werewolf by Night teaser release

The Disney fan event witnessed the unveiling of multiple shows and films, their release dates and more. Among other things, exclusive footage from The Marvels, coming to cinemas on July 28, 2023, was released. Marvel also announced that the upcoming Fantastic Four film will be directed by Matt Shakman and will hit screens on November 8, 2024.

Marvel fans took to Twitter to express the multitude of emotions they experienced with the release of exclusive looks and information on upcoming projects. However, not all were impressed by the release of Werewolf by Night teaser.

Another user called the upcoming special a sequel to Twilight, and wrote:

The Werewolf by Night trailer followed a black-and-white format that brought back memories of the horror films from the 1970s and 1980s, Twitter users noted, and added that the gore portrayed in the clip would be a first for Disney-owned Marvel. Some users were ecstatic and shared their nostalgia on social media.

However, not everyone was happy with the seemingly new developments in the Marvel universe, and termed the black-and-white format the studios' "cheap-looking parody comedy." Other users expressed disappointment in terms of the presumed shorter duration of the special.

Even amid such aspersions regarding the special, some other fans and users looked on the brighter side and spotted the Man-Thing from the Marvel comic books, the Time Variance Authority, and drew a potential Moon Knight crossover reference.
