X-Men ’97’ is still capturing everyone’s attention, and the newly released trailer for Season 2 has caused a huge buzz online. The trailer revealed a major character return – something fans have been anticipating, even with hints in previous motion comics and the upcoming Tokon storyline – and also brought some surprising news about the show’s future on Disney+.
Good news! Season 3 is confirmed, and there’s plenty more to come!
Larry Houston, the original director of the X-Men animated series and now an executive producer on X-Men ’97, announced alongside the trailer release that Disney+ has already ordered a fourth season. Even better, he indicated the show is planned to continue for many years to come!
Marvel Producer: X-Men ’97 Likely to Stick Around For Generations
Eric Lewald, a key writer and producer on X-Men ’97, explained the show could potentially run for generations, saying, ‘We’re committed for as long as people keep watching – even until our great-grandchildren’s grandchildren are around.’ He said this when discussing the long gap between the original series and the recent reboot.
This is huge news for what many consider the best show and reboot on Disney+. It connects beautifully to storylines starting in Avengers: Doomsday, and for video game fans, the previously mentioned Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls game will launch in August. All of this builds towards an exciting future for the X-Men, starting in 2026.
Even better news: production on Season 4 of X-Men ’97 is already underway, suggesting Season 3 is finished! Season 2 premieres on Disney+ on July 1st, and thankfully, the long wait between seasons is over. We now have a clear release schedule, meaning fans can expect a new season every summer from now on.
When Will New Seasons of X-Men ’97 Be Released?
Houston explained that the gap between seasons will now be just one year, a significant reduction from the previous two-and-a-quarter years.
This is fantastic news for fans of X-Men! It sounds like Marvel is really committed to X-Men ’97 and plans to continue the series for a long time – perhaps even indefinitely. They’re clearly moving quickly with writing, production, and editing, which suggests a long-term commitment.
According to Houston, the next installment is about a year away, and the one after that will follow a year later. Production is currently on track, largely because they’ve thoroughly reviewed and provided feedback on all the scripts and storyboards for Season 3. They’re already well into developing Season 4, offering notes on those scripts as well, which shows how far ahead the team is working.
Season 2 of X-Men ’97 will feature a reality-bending war with Apocalypse, causing massive changes across the X-Men’s animated timelines and potentially impacting the future of the Marvel universe as we know it. Prepare for unexpected twists – like Christmas happening in the summer – as this new storyline promises something every Marvel fan will enjoy.
