Marvel Studios' X-Men '97, an animated Original Series, coming in 2023 to
@DisneyPlus
. #DisneyPlusDay



Among those returning are Cal Dodd (Wolverine), Lenore Zann (Rogue), George Buza (Beast), Adrian Hough (Nightcrawler), Christopher Britton (Mr. Sinister), Catherine Disher (Jean Grey), Chris Potter (Gambit), Alison Sealy-Smith (Storm), and Alyson Court (Jubilee).

New voices will include Jennifer Hale, Anniwaa Buachie, Ray Chase, Matthew Waterson, JP Karliak, Holly Chou, Jeff Bennett, and AJ LoCascio, and we're assuming they'll be delivering their takes on both familiar characters and perhaps even a few additions who weren't part of the show the first time around.

Beau DeMayo will serve as Head Writer and executive producer on X-Men '97, while Jake Castorena and Charley Feldman have been tapped as supervising director and supervising producer respectively. Don't fret, though as X-Men: The Animated Series writers Eric and Julia Lewald and director Larry Houston will all return to the beloved property in consultant roles.

This is going to be terrible, why continue 90s x-men? It already had a finale that worked, it already told all the stories that it had to tell, there is no point in reviving x-men.

I defended the 90s animated X-men show and I think it's good but it's a product of its time, if they take that away it won't be the same show, it'll be a rehash that it'll either just be lame or try too hard to appeal to a jaded audience of 30 year olds who don't remember how the show actually was and just have vague memories and that's what they want.

I don't understand it either, but the original creators are behind it which is pretty interesting. I have so much love for the show that I'm definitely going to give it a chance, but it does seem a bit puzzling, as opposed to just making a new animated series.

The only thing that I would like to see is crossovers with the rest of the Marvel universe, seeing the 90s version of spider-man, hulk, fantastic four interact with the x-men would be great, we already know they are in the same universe. It'll be great to see Jubilee as a main character again though as well as the 90s designs.

The bad is the designs will likely be updated and not fully resemble their 90s look. If we do get other marvel characters they'd be the current MCU personalities like all animated shows have been even though Iron Man is very different from MCU Iron Man. I'm sure they would not acknowledge the Marvel Animated Universe from the 90s, especially not their Avengers team.

I find this puzzling too, but I will give it a chance. I'm surprised some of the original voice actors are returning. So do they ignore the last episode Graduation Day or they sticking with Xavier staying with Lilandra.

I wonder if this could be testing the waters for other old shows to return ("cough" Gargoyles "cough"). A few days ago I saw that Kim Possible could be getting a revival/sequel to the old show. But nothing was mentioned today.

As good as X-Men Evolution and Wolverine and the X-Men are, being better than the comics and movies produced at the time, the 90s one was the most commercially succesful and memorable. It's the Fred Wolf of X-cartoons whether you feel good or bad about it. It was also reran on Disney channels throughout the 2000s, so both us 90s kids as well as that decade's generation have grown up with it and now have influence in the industry.

Does the original show hold up at all? I grew up with X-Men Evolution and I’d love to see them do a season 5 and adapt the Dark Phoenix arc.

Of Course it does. The 90's show did arcs better than the damn Fox- Movies did. Go watch the 5 part 90's X-men Phoenix Saga that's all you need.

[Sumac]

Not keen on such continuation.
It'd certainly **** up some stuff.

[Leo656]

If a revival project gets them to issue the complete 90s series in a Blu-ray set then all's forgiven regardless of what they do going forward.

I know they all got single-season sets but I missed them and they're getting expensive now.

Christ would you shut up MR negativity.

[Coola Yagami]

Wow. They brought back that lame-ass 90s Magneto look.

Makes sense, Because of how Mojo World is all about producing media in the form of TV shows and movies, Video Games would be the next type of media they would cover.

Until further notice I have no faith in anything coming from the MCU. Admittedly Deadpool 3 does have me excited, but it feels like an outlier.

I’m not being obstinate, I love the MCU. At least I did at one point. Hopefully they can stop with the heavy-handed themes, rely less on quips, and slow down on the special effects. Heck, slow down on all production obviously. If things can get a bit more serious and focused then it’s actually exciting to think of what the MCU could be a few years from now.

This looks awesome. I hope that there will be a dvd release because I don't use any streaming services other than Pluto and Youtube. I already own all of the other X-Men cartoons so this will be a must buy.

[Cowabung-Gal]

The animation looks rather cheaply made, especially when you consider which major company is producing this show. The female characters (especially Rogue) have been given that new anti-male-gaze flat redesign to (effortlessly) appease the miserable activists (and unintentionally the religious Right which is hilariously ironic). The people in charge are diversity hires who have no real knowledge of the franchise that they’re writing about. 2020 identity politics and ideologies are being inserted into a show that is supposed to be set in the 90s.

Why should I be excited about this again?
