The Final Season of What If…? Arrives on Disney Plus This December

Explore Alternate Marvel Universes in What If’s Final Season

As fans eagerly await the return of X-Men '97, they won't have to wait much longer to see the third and concluding season of What If…? arriving on Disney Plus. This upcoming season is set to introduce one of Marvel’s mutants to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) in an especially spectacular way.

Anticipating the season's debut on December 22nd, Disney Plus has released a new trailer that highlights different universe tales with slightly altered incarnations of familiar MCU characters. Viewers will find Shang-Chi, played by Simu Liu, envisioned as a cowboy, while Kathryn Hahn's Agatha Harkness dons a celestial flapper outfit. Additionally, the Avengers transform into a super sentai squad equipped with interconnecting robot suits. This kind of creative chaos continues to define the series’ reputation as an exhilarating viewing experience.

Marvel's What If…? Explores New Dimensions with Iconic Characters

A particularly intriguing twist this season features Storm, voiced by Alison Sealy-Smith, adopting the identity of a Mjolnir-wielding Thor. This storyline echoes Marvel’s comic saga where figures from different realities join the Thor Corps, all under the command of Doctor Doom, acting as enforcers within his domain.

Initially, What If…? seemed like a standalone anthology with little connection to the larger MCU narrative. However, with the franchise expanding into new series and films, What If…? is increasingly being seen as an unexpectedly significant link within Marvel's ongoing saga.
