Feige is producing these new Disney+ shows himself, so things will certainly happen on them that will be followed up in the movies.
Of course people won't have to watch the TV shows to understand the movies, but then again it seems like they don't bother to explain what happened in the movies, either. But we'll probably be able to see a character in the movies and know that they first appeared in a TV show, like the adult Monica Rambeau.
