The topic “Disney Reveals First Look at 2024 MCU Young Avengers Heroes’ Crossover” has two versions, a written one, and a video version below the written one.
The Young Avengers have come together aboard Disney’s latest Worlds of Marvel experience.
Originally introduced on Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Wish in 2022, Worlds of Marvel is a unique dining experience that features interactive shows and entertainment led by Marvel Studios stars.
Ahead of the Disney Treasure’s launch on December 21, Disney provided a preview of what to expect from its second-ever Worlds of Marvel experience, including a post-credits scene featuring the Young Avengers.
New Worlds of Marvel Show Features Young Avengers Team Up
During a media preview for the Disney Treasure cruise ship, the new Worlds of Marvel restaurant unveiled an exciting, never-before-seen scene featuring three young heroines from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) who are anticipated to be part of the Young Avengers.
Although Marvel Studios has not yet announced a project specifically focused on the Young Avengers, many fans believe it’s only a matter of time, and this scene may serve as a hint toward that future venture. The MCU already boasts an impressive lineup of teenage and young adult heroes. Additionally, the post-credit scene of “The Marvels,” where Ms. Marvel recruits Kate Bishop (who is Hawkeye), seems to set the stage for a potential Young Avengers movie or Disney+ series.
As fans continue to wait for Marvel Studios to officially greenlight a Young Avengers project, the Worlds of Marvel restaurant has offered a glimpse of what they might expect in the future.
In the brief clip, Tony Stark’s reliable AI assistant, FRIDAY, introduces the “youngest heroes.” This lineup includes Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez from “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” Kathryn Newton as Cassie Lang from “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania,” and Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams from “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” Riri is set to headline her own Disney+ series, “Ironheart,” in 2025.
Interestingly, the star of Ironheart mentioned Cassie Lang as her hope for a Young Avengers crossover. It remains unclear whether she was aware of this cameo at that time.
In the new scene, the trio is seated at a table on the upper deck of the Disney Treasure, specifically at the Mickey & Friends Festival of Foods.
Since they have been eating, this clip may serve as a callback to the Avengers post-credits scene while also hinting at what else guests can expect at Worlds of Marvel, and perhaps in the broader Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Marvel Studios' Young Adventures Confirmed?
Since the Disney Treasure has not yet begun public sailings, its Worlds of Marvel may have even more exciting scenes and heroes to reveal. Unlike the Disney Wish, which offers Worlds of Marvel experiences, the Disney Treasure features seven-night itineraries. This means the restaurant will present shows beyond just Avengers: Quantum Encounter, including the exclusive Marvel Celebration of Heroes: Groot Remix, available only on the new ship.
Although Disney’s various Marvel Cinematic Universe experiences, including Worlds of Marvel and the Quantum Encounter show, showcase talent from Marvel Studios and reflect the ever-evolving Marvel Cinematic Universe, they are not considered canon.
According to Imagineer Danny Handke, the Creative Director for Worlds of Marvel, Disney’s Avengers: Quantum Encounter exists as a variant of the main MCU timeline:
“We are kind of in our own theme park universe, and the Multiverse concept’s great because we’re a Variant of the main MCU timeline, so it helps everyone understand that. Canon is the official canon we see on screen and our park universe mirrors that, but our stories go in different directions, mainly because we as the audience are protagonists.”
This is why Iron Man is still alive at Disneyland’s Avengers Campus, Groot remains Baby Groot inside Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout!, and both T’Challa and Shuri hold the title of Black Panther in Wakanda.
However, just because Ironheart, Cassie Lang, and America Chavez haven’t canonically celebrated a victory on the deck of a cruise ship doesn’t mean we won’t see them assemble within the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
After all, Worlds of Marvel has a history of pairing heroes together before their films are released. For instance, the first interaction between Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel and Ms. Marvel occurred in Quantum Encounter, prior to the filming of The Marvels.
Disney is expected to reveal more details about the Disney Treasure’s Worlds of Marvel and its experiences in the coming weeks.
The Disney Treasure is set to set sail on December 21, 2024.
