After the success of X-Men ’97, Head of TV, Streaming, and Animation Brad Winderbaum confirmed that Season 3 of What If…? could be the next Marvel Animation show on deck. However, there’s a hint that it could also be the final installment.

What If…? Season 3 Might Be The Last Chapter

During an interview via Comic Book, Marvel’s very own Brad Winderbaum revealed that What If…? Season 3 might come up next in the slot. He also mentioned something that teased the show’s conclusion.

What If…? Season Three is — that might be the one that comes out next, in terms of animation. That is the culmination of a trilogy. We’re actually close to completing that one.

Winderbaum shared fans can expect The Watcher to present himself as “uncaring, and cold, and just an observer,” although he cares for everybody. The Marvel TV head also said that it “feels like you’ve gone through this amazing emotional experience with Uatu.” All of these and more will be on full display in Season 3.

Director Bryan Andrews previously shared his excitement for the third installment. He claimed that “there’s no way people can guess what’s coming” and that they tried to push the genre a bit in this one. He further explained via Marvel: I’m super excited about some of the ones that are coming up. There are a few that are just fantastic. I think everyone’s going to nerd out because we get to push. And one of them’s going to sell a lot of toys.

This is surely a great way to advertise the show as fans would definitely want to collect merchandise of their beloved characters. Apart from this, the director also teased that Season 3 will be a continuation for characters all the way from Season 1. He would not say which one but “that one’s turning out to be quite hilarious,” he quipped.

Some fans are demanding the continuation of the show as it opened a lot of subjects and stories that can be further explored. Others wish that the third installment be better than the previous ones.
