According to Comicbook.com, all Marvel, Disney+ and animated offerings will be under the Marvel television banner, while any animated series will be under the Marvel animation logo. According to Kevin Feige (The Marvels, The Avengers), this is the result of corporate reshuffling.

“It’s all still under Marvel Studios, which is not the case with the previous incarnation of Marvel Television. One reason we wanted to do that is so that the animation team—the Marvel Animation team that just did X-Men ’97—has a bunch of great shows ready and coming out,” Feige told Comicbook.com.

Feige also said that the newly created separation communicates to audiences that the television series is a different type of entertainment. “Then with Marvel Television, to focus it so that people realize that like the comics, you can tap into something interesting. It’s not all required viewing. There’s a sense of where people say superhero fatigue or have to say they’re doing homework, but these are all individual stories meant to be singular entities. The connectivity is a bonus and something people like.”

The next piece of upcoming content in the MCU is Deadpool and Wolverine, starring Hugh Jackman (Logan, X-Men) as Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds (The Proposal, Free Guy) as Deadpool, Matthew Mcfadyen (Spooks, Pride and Prejudice) as Paradox, Emma Corrin (My Policeman, The Crown) as Cassandra Nova, Morena Baccarin (Greenland, Homeland) as Vanessa Carlysle, Karan Soni (Creep, 7 Days) as Dopinder, Leslie Uggams (Fallout, American Fiction) as Blind Al, Brianna Hildebrand (Playing with Fire, Trinkets) as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Stefan Kapičić (Slotherhouse, Tears for Sale) as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Rob Delaney (Rocketman, Bombshell as Peter, Aaron Stanford (X2, Tadpole) as Pyro and Lewis Tan (Mortal Kombat, About Fate) as Shatterstar. Feige is set to produce the series, along with Reynolds, Shaun Levy (free Guy, Arrival), and Lauren Schuler (Logan, You’ve Got Mail).
