With the first season of “X-Men ’97″over, Marvel has several other animated series in the works that could be set for release on the Disney+ service.

Both “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” and “Eyes of Wakanda” are on the way, but Marvel Animation chief Brad Winderbaum says it’s something else that will be the next animated Marvel effort to air – the third season of anthology series “What If…?”.

Speaking with ComicBook.com, Winderbaum indicates the new run will be the next to make it to air. More cryptically he seems to suggest this might be the last season as he describes it as a “culmination of a trilogy” with the Uatu character sounding like he achieves some sort of closure:

“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, and it really feels like you’ve gone through this amazing emotional experience with Uatu, in a way that’s…

What’s great about The Watcher is that he presents himself as uncaring, and cold, and just an observer, but he cares more than everybody [and] anybody. That is on full display in that third season.”

A first look at the third season was released shortly after the show’s second season wrapped late last year. Characters Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), Bill Foster (Laurence Fishburne), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), Agent Morales (America Ferrera) and Alexi Shostakov (David Harbour) will all appear.
