Exactly, TV shows make for a much better way to introduce and build on lesser known characters. Not only are they a less risky investment, but they also have a lot more time to build on the characters.

You start them off as a reoccurring guest stars on a bigger hero's tv show, and if they are well received, then you can give them their own TV show, and THEN if that does well you can start talking feature films, because by the time they have their own show they are certain to have the fanbase and public notice to pull off a movie.
