First things first, because those of you who count yourself amongst "Real Steel" fandom are likely flipping out at the news that a series is in the works, and are no doubt wondering exactly when you'll be able to stream it. The short answer to that question is that we have no idea when the "Real Steel" series will make its Disney+ debut as Disney brass has yet to announce a release date. That's mostly because the series has only just been announced, and it is currently so early in production it's literally impossible to know when it might be ready to hit the Disney+ platform.

Unfortunately, that also means it'll probably be some time before we actually get to see what the series' creative team has in store. Per Collider, "Real Steel" is so early in production the creative team hasn't even found a screenwriter yet. The good news is that the series will reportedly try to bring back much of the behind-the-camera talent who helped make the first film such a thrillingly original experience, including producer's Shawn Levy (who also directed "Real Steel"), Robert Zemeckis, Susan Montford, Jack Rapke, and Don Murphy.
