The Remarried Empress live-action series debuts November 4 on Disney+ and Hulu, with the first four episodes arriving that day and two new episodes each Wednesday through the November 25 finale. The main trailer and key visual are out, and the cast is led by Min-A Shin, Ji-Hoon Ju, Se Young Lee, and Jong Suk Lee.
The Remarried Empress is a web novel and webtoon that Disney+ and Hulu are adapting as a Korean original live-action series. The adaptation's first marketing beat came on July 27, 2026, when the two services released a teaser poster showing Min-a Shin as Empress Navier in a red gown inside a church, with a key line from the webtoon. The poster committed the series to a fall premiere.
On September 17, 2026, Disney+ and Hulu released the main trailer and key visual ahead of the November 4 debut. The trailer introduces the four central characters through dialogue. The release plan is unusually front-loaded: the first four episodes arrive on November 4, followed by two new episodes every Wednesday through the November 25 finale, for 10 episodes total. Min-A Shin, Ji-Hoon Ju, Se Young Lee, and Jong Suk Lee star.
The webtoon also circulates as reading material independent of the adaptation. A June 30, 2026 roundup of new manga and manhwa volumes listed The Remarried Empress alongside The Fake Alchemist, Vagabond Definitive Edition, Insomniacs After School, Blade & Bastard, Girl Crush, and Lycoris Recoil. That column singled out Vagabond Definitive Edition Vol. 5 for its art and storytelling, not The Remarried Empress.
