"Marvel's What If?" (Disney+ Animated Series) News & Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Shading - check,

Color - check,

Looks great to me.

Summer 2021 is far though, but then time flies fast, it's crazy

Collider has a slightly more detailed description of the D23 What If?... footage.

Black Star-Lord? I wonder if that means the Ravagers picked up another kid or Ego wanted someone else .

I thought the Steve as Iron Man story went alongside Super Soldier Peggy, but it sounds like it might be the Iron Man episode.

Doesn't seem like there's any kind of hard chronology/continuity with these What If's since the Marvel Zombies one also sounds like it happens during First Avenger .

I was definitely expecting Disney to bring their A-Game for the only original Marvel cartoon on Disney+, especially since it's MCU-related .

Kinda makes me feel bad for the normal cartoons though .

It's silly that I never thought of Marvel Studios going the CG route when I thought of what the animation style for What If? would be like.

I wonder who's doing the animation. Disney in-house? Polygon Pictures?

It's going to be such a long wait to see this show.

I wonder if the series would be over after they knock out an episode for all the movies that have done already.

If this isn't a one-and-done, I guess they could just do different What Ifs for the Infinity Saga...the possibilities are endless .

Hopefully, we won't have to wait another decade or so for another 20+ MCU movies and series for this to have a 2nd season.

I am a little surprised they will actually have 23 episodes from the start. It's just an odd number to me, I guess.

Sorry Thanos, not everything can be perfectly balanced with an even number .

What If? does seem like endless potential for stories, even if the source material is limited to just the movies.

I guess the only other limiting factor would be whether they can get the movie stars back. I'm kind of amazed they were able to get as many back for this as they did.

Trailer leaked online. It looks pretty good. Animation style sorta reminds me of Armored Adventures.

I was actually reminded of Star Wars: Resistance/Tron: Uprising.

Just wanted to add a quick note that discussing the footage is fine, but posting it, sharing a link or mentioning where to find leaked versions of it would be against the rules of this forum. Unless it's released online by an official channel. Leaked stills from the D23 footage would also be allowed.

I still haven't seen lots of Resistance it but whenever I see a clip, Armored Adventures is the first thing it reminds me of.

Did the character designs look pretty much like the MCU?

Pretty much exactly, give or take a more stylized visual for the actors/actresses.

I haven't noticed this reported on other sites, but it looks like they also announced some of the crew for What If?....

A.C. Bradley (Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia) as head writer, and Bryan Andrews as director.

Trollhunters is a good pedigree to be coming from .

Bryan Andrews (filmmaker) - Wikipedia

Bryan Andrews is pretty good considering his work on Samurai Jack, Jackie Chan Adventures, My Life As A Teenage Robot, and Sym Bionic Titan, among other projects.

 

[bigdaddy313]

This is why I feel Kevin Feige should run everything especially the answer to the last question.

 

[RoyalRubble]

A minor point, but Dominic Cooper briefly comments on reprising his role as Howard Stark for What If?....
