X-Men 97 Season 2 Team Lineup With SR's D23 Overlay

Disney+ screened the first X-Men ‘97 season 2 footage while previewing what’s coming up in the popular Marvel animated show. One of the biggest Marvel Studios projects in 2024 was the arrival of X-Men ’97, serving as a continuation of X-Men: The Animated Series. After a successful first season, the world is now actively waiting for X-Men ’97 season 2, which has yet to get a premiere date on Disney+.

At Marvel Studios’ D23 2024 presentation for Marvel Animation, where Screen Rant is in attendance, X-Men ‘97 season 2 was one of the shows they brought. After the big ending to X-Men ‘97 season 1, the first season 2 footage was finally presented to the crowd. Check out the full description below:

During the footage that was presented for X-Men ’97 season 2, it was revealed that a couple of new faces will be coming into the fold. One of them is Danger, based on the Danger Room from the X-Men mythology, which is where the mutants train in the X-Mansion. It has been known in the comics that the Danger Room gains self-awareness and takes a more physical role in the mythology.

While she was one of the X-Men characters featured in X-Men: The Animated Series, there will be a bigger focus on one of Magneto’s many children in X-Men ’97 season 2. Lorna Dane, a.k.a. Polaris, will show up in X-Men ’97 season 2, after making a cameo in season 1 where viewers saw an older version of her. At the time of this story’s publication, a voice actor for Polaris has not been revealed for X-Men ‘97 season 2.

At this point, it seems very likely that X-Men ’97 season 2 will not be arriving until sometime in 2025, given how Marvel Studios may be rolling out Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Eyes of Wakanda, and Marvel Zombies first. However, that doesn’t mean that Disney+ couldn’t put out a new X-Men ’97 season 2 trailer before 2024 is over. For now, the world can relive X-Men ’97 season 1 exclusively on Disney+.
