Given the intense and naturally violent premise of the series, it makes sense that Marvel Zombies will be rated TV-MA. The episode of What If…? that precedes the upcoming show was not TV-MA, however, so it’s likely that the full series will be more graphic than said episode.
In the tweets below, you can see both the protagonists and antagonists of the series. The villains include zombie versions of Abomination, Scarlet Witch, Captain Marvel, and more. On the other hand, the pictured heroes include Shang-Chi, Kate Bishop, Jimmy Woo, and Red Guardian.
