by X-Men fans received great news from Wolverine actor Cal Dodd on the upcoming animated series X-Men ’97 in the MCU.
After What If…? and I Am Groot as the third canonical animated series in the MCU, X-Men ’97 will pay homage to the style and “earnestness… [and] emotional sincerity” of the original X-Man: The Animated Series that served as its inspiration.
The involvement of Dodd, who portrayed Wolverine in both the original and follow-up series, would undoubtedly aid in bridging the gap between the two.
X-cited Thanks to a video announcement from Dodd, X-fans now have even more cause to anticipate the series.
From Wolverine Star: Huge X-News
The voice work for X-Men ’97’s previously reported second season has officially started, according to a tweet from Wolverine actor Cal Dodd.
In the content of his tweet, Dodd referred to the recording session as “GREAT!” and included the hashtags for the show and Disney+.
“Yesterday. Studio. Season 2. GREAT session!
In the accompanying video, he later referred to the start of the season as “just the beginning” and addressed the audience with Wolverine’s distinctive “bub”:
“Cal Dodd, voice of Wolverine from ‘X-Men ’97.’ The beginning of Season 2, I say, just the beginning. Strap your seatbelts on, bub. Later.”
Two more seasons of the animated X-Men are planned.
Fans of X-Men: The Animated Series should rejoice in the knowledge that there will be at least two seasons of the new X-Men show, which will feature significant participation from the original cast and creative team.
Dodd’s video also verifies Wolverine’s participation in both of the show’s previously announced seasons, which is wonderful news for followers of “the best there is at what [he does].“
The word “bub” is used in the trailer to imply that Wolverine’s personality traits and eccentricities from the original series and the comics will also be present in the new programme.
Perhaps additional details regarding the first season will emerge now that a second season has been confirmed. The majority of what fans know comes from statements made at San Diego Comic-Con in the summer of 2022, and only a small portion of the cast has been confirmed.
Fans may anticipate the show on Disney+ in the fall and can catch up on all the seasons of the original series, which are presently streaming on the site, until additional information is released.
