Jennifer Hale, the voice actress behind Jean Grey in X-Men ’97, has been dropping hints about the upcoming second season, promising fans a thrilling ride. While she remains tight-lipped about specific details, her playful warning to “buckle up” suggests that the narrative will be packed with action and surprises. The season finale of the first season left viewers on the edge of their seats with the introduction of formidable foes like Apocalypse and the potential return of fan-favorite Gambit, setting the stage for an epic continuation. Hale’s cryptic message to “keep reading” could imply that the storylines will delve deeper into the rich source material provided by the X-Men comics, offering fans a chance to engage with the lore on a more profound level.
The Marvel Animation panel at D23 provided a glimpse into the future of X-Men ’97, revealing that the second season will explore the formation of new mutant teams. The appearance of characters like Polaris and the New Mutants in the footage shown at D23 hints at the possibility of these characters forming a new iteration of the X-Men or joining other “X” teams. The mention of Forge’s mission to recruit more mutants to aid in the search for their time-displaced teammates opens up the narrative to include a broader ensemble of characters, potentially leading to the introduction of teams like X-Factor and X-Force.
With the confirmation from Marvel’s head of animation, Brad Winderbaum, that there will be “two other X teams” in Season 2, fans can anticipate a complex and dynamic season that will expand the X-Men universe within the animated series. The inclusion of these teams not only promises to bring new dynamics and conflicts to the forefront but also allows for the exploration of different aspects of the X-Men mythos. Given Polaris’ history with X-Factor and Cable’s connection to X-Force, it’s likely that these teams will play a significant role in the unfolding story, offering fans a deeper dive into the rich tapestry of the X-Men’s world.
