Marvel Exec Brad Winderbaum updates fans on the various animated series in production, Eyes of Wakanda, Spider-Man, What If? Season 3 and X-Men 97′ Season 2. Winderbaum appeared on the latest Official Marvel Podcast. Whilst nothing too revealing, the head of streaming, television and animation did provide a small update on the known animates series in production.
Eyes of Wakanda
“Eyes of Wakanda, more than any other show we’re doing in animation, ties directly into the MCU. This is a story about Wakandan history. It’s produced by Ryan Coogler and directed by Todd Harris who is one of our longtime storyboard artists who I first met when he designed the Hulk vs. Thor fight in Ragnarok.”
“It’s an awesome show. The action is insane and the storytelling is fantastic. It’s both about the history of Wakanda, but also expands into the greater MCU at different time periods. If you’re a fan of the movies, I think this show is going to be a real treat.’
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man
“There are twists and turns in that show that are amazing, but the real power is the ensemble, is the neighbourhood. The showrunner is Jeff Trammel who made a show called Craig of the Creek which is a kid’s cartoon that spent seasons in the connected backyards of this neighbourhood and had this whole mythology that grew out of it and characters you grew to care for over the course of the series.”
“He’s amped that up in such a major way playing with characters like, not just Peter Parker, Nico Minoru, Lonnie Lincoln, and my personal favourite, Harry Osborn, and others that flesh out this teenage ensemble. It’s really incredible.”
What If? Season 3
“What If…? season 3 feels like the completion of a trilogy. It takes us to places you’d never expect. It goes beyond the first two seasons in its exploration of the Multiverse and it pulls in characters that are very unexpected. Also, it has what I think is an extremely moving and fulfilling culmination for Uatu, The Watcher.”
It sounds like this is the final season of What If? at least for now, if this is the culmination for Uatu?
X-Men 97′
Finally Winderbaum has some teases for what to expect in X-Men 97′s Season 2.
“We’ve got big plans for the second season. I’ve already seen all the animatics and we’re well on our way to creating something that hits the heights of the first season. I know the first season is an emotional ride; that ride continues in a very X-Men fashion in the second season.”
