However, the San Diego Comic-Con 2023 brought forth reassuring news for fans. Beau DeMayo, the show’s executive producer and chief scribbler, confirmed that the team is actively working on the second season for Disney+. As DeMayo enthusiastically reported, the first season is in its final phases of post-production while they are “literally writing the season finale for Season 2”. His words brimmed with pride as he hailed the tremendous effort of his “small, but very dedicated team” using almost guerilla-style tactics to bring the series to life as per The Direct.
DeMayo stated,
“It’s like I said in there, we’re just in post [production] on Season 1. Literally writing the season finale for Season 2 right now. It’s going well. I could not be happier. It’s a gargantuan effort with a truly like guerilla tactic, small, but very dedicated team.”
DeMayo’s statement undoubtedly warmed the hearts of fans, especially those who were nostalgic about the original animated series from the 90s. The first season, promising a run of 10 episodes, is much awaited. Notably, it features the vocal talents of Ray Chase voicing Scott Summers/Cyclops, Cal Dodd as the iconic James “Logan” Howlett/Wolverine, Alison Sealy-Smith portraying Ororo Munroe/Storm, and Jennifer Hale lending her voice to Jean Grey. While the precise release date is still a secret, the anticipated premiere has fans buzzing for its debut later this year.
X-Men ‘97’s Renewed Venture Balances Nostalgia and Modernity
The entertainment domain is known for its unpredictability, and there’s a small caveat here. The success of the inaugural season will likely determine the journey ahead for Season 2. If the debut season doesn’t click with viewers and struggles on the streaming platform, Disney and Marvel may reconsider rolling out the next installment.
Given the illustrious legacy of the X-Men: The Animated Series, the new X-Men ’97 carries the weight of expectations. This renewed venture has a dual responsibility: to evoke the nostalgia of the original while presenting a fresh and contemporary take to appeal to newer generations. The reveal of a second season has brought about feelings of jubilation, reassurance, and eager anticipation, suggesting a bright path ahead.
Fans of the X-Men lore are in for a nostalgic ride with X-Men ’97. The commitment of the creators is evident, and all fingers are crossed, hoping that this revival captures the magic and allure that the original series held for so many. Only the streaming numbers and audience reception will determine if this blast from the past secures its future on Disney+.
