What If…? S02 Event Brings X-Men, Wakanda, Spider-Man Series News

Monday night's What If...? Season 2 screening also included looks at X-Men '97, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man & Eyes of Wakanda.

Marvel Studios spotlighted animation in a big way on Monday night, hosting a screening of two all-new episodes of Disney+'s upcoming What If…? Season 2. With the second season set to hit screens in ten days, EP Brad Winderbaum (head of streaming, television & animation for Marvel Studios), director/EP Bryan Andrews, writer/EP AC Bradley, and writer/producer Matthew Chauncey took part in a Q&A where they not only offered more insight into the anthology series but also dropped some other big animation news. In a sizzle reel that was screened, Eyes of Wakanda was first revealed. Throughout Wakandan history, brave warriors have been tasked to travel the world retrieving dangerous vibranium artifacts. This is their story. In addition, footage from X-Men '97 and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (previously "Spider-Man: Freshman Year") were also included in the preview. Here's a photo gallery from the event:
