X-Men 97 release date: The animated series is coming back to TV thanks to the release date of X-Men ’97. The new show will be a straight follow-up to the popular show from the 1990s that nerds like us watched all the time. What could be better than a bowl of Cap’n Crunch and some experiences with Wolverine? Good job.
Lots of the X-Men heroes are coming back for more. Wolverine, Jean Grey, Cyclops, and more. But this time, the X-Men heroes will be fighting with Magneto because the end of season 5 left us hanging.
This story is very different from what we’ve seen in the X-Men movies, and it’s a good place for people who are interested in Marvel’s mutants to start. To get ready for the return, we’ve been to and from the Danger Room to find out all we can.
X-Men ’97 Release Date Speculation
This movie, X-Men ’97, will come out in early 2024, but we don’t know the exact date yet. Marvel likes to mix things up and keep us guessing.
At first, X-Men ’97 was supposed to come out in the fall of 2023. However, a big change to the Marvel series on Disney Plus has shook things up, delaying the return of the world’s favorite mutants.
This has affected the release dates of Daredevil season 4, Agatha, Echo, and more. Really, it’s hard enough to watch Marvel movies in the right order without all of this.
It wasn’t completely surprising, though, because the series hadn’t gotten many updates in a while. Now we have to guess what “early 2024” might mean, but it looks like it will be out in the spring. A set date should show up soon.
Which Actors are in X-Men ’97?
Most of the voice actors from the famous 1990s show will be back for X-Men ’97 to bring the characters to life.
Fans of the show from the 1990s will be glad to hear that Cal Dodd is back as Wolverine. George Buza is back as Hank McCoy, Alison Sealy-Smith is back as Storm, Adrian Hough is back as Nightcrawler, Chris Potter is doing voice work for Gambit, Catherine Disher will be back as Jean Grey and Christopher Britton is Mister Sinister.
The cast list for X-Men ’97 right now:
- Cal Dodd as James Howlett/Wolverine
- Lenore Zann as Anna-Marie Raven/Rogue
- Chris Potter as Remy LeBeau/Gambit
- Alison Sealy-Smith as Ororo Munroe/Storm
What is Going to Happen in X-Men ’97?
The story of X-Men ’97 picks up right where the first series left off, a few months later, in a world that feels better about mutants. This means we’ll find out what happened after Magneto and the mutants left Professor Xavier.
The humble leader avoided death by going to Shi’Ar with Lilandra. Those who knew and loved him had to wait to see if he would ever come back. (Yes, the show finished with the Poochie joke from The Simpsons.) That weird ending was good because it left a lot of loose ends that the writers could pick up later.
We also know that Wolverine and Storm will take charge of the group, and Magneto still has some power even though Xavier officially left him in charge. Mister Sinister, who always wants to destroy the X-Men, will be their biggest enemy.
Is There a Trailer for X-Men ’97?
X-Men ’97 doesn’t have a trailer yet, but one should be out in a few months.
While waiting for the premiere of the X-Men 97, you can watch more shows in the same genre. Some examples of such shows are Far From Home Season 2 and Loki Season 2.
Does X-Men ’97 Belong to the MCU?
As of now, the official word is that X-Men ’97 will not happen in the main storyline of the MCU. But people have different ideas about what this really means.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness shows that Professor X (at least the Patrick Stewart version) and the mutants live in a different time period and look like they did on the show in the 1990s.
If you include the world, then X-Men ’97 is most likely part of the MCU, but not in a way that changes the main story. Will there ever be a link between them? Captain Carter was first shown in What If…? and then came to life in Multiverse of Madness. It’s been done before, but with something like the X-Men, it’s a little harder to make the jump.
Conclusion
X-Men ’97 is set to return to TV in early 2024, following the popular 1990s show. The show will feature the X-Men heroes, including Wolverine, Jean Grey, Cyclops, and more, fighting Magneto.
The cast includes Cal Dodd as Wolverine, George Buza as Hank McCoy, Alison Sealy-Smith as Storm, Adrian Hough as Nightcrawler, Chris Potter as Gambit, Catherine Disher as Jean Grey, and Christopher Britton as Mister Sinister. The story follows Wolverine and Storm, with Magneto still holding power.
