It seems if Marvel has its way, there’s going to be no shortage of more “X-Men ’97” episodes in the near future.
Eric Lewald, a story editor/writer on the original 1990s “X-Men” animated series and an executive producer on the current show, says Marvel’s TV & streaming chief Brad Winderbaum is over the moon with their series.
In an interview for POC Culture, Lewald says Winderbaum wants “X-Men ’97” to continue for many years, and he’s all for it:
“Brad’s [Winderbaum] bursting up and down, and you know he wants to do 10 [seasons], and we want him to do 10. We want eight years from now to be having more conversations like this about Season 10. With 60 years of comics and all these characters, there’s really no limit.”
Fellow executive producer Larry Houston confirmed the production team is already actively developing additional seasons, and Marvel has already verbally confirmed a fourth season.
Houston’s own aspiration is to match the original series’ run of five seasons. The second season kicked off on July 1st on Disney+ and will continue for the next few weeks.
