The new X-Men ’97 series will potentially have crossovers with other beloved Marvel animated shows from the 90s.
During Screen Rant’s exclusive interview with Marvel Studios Head of TV, Streaming, and Animation, Brad Winderbaum – while promoting the arrival of X-Men ’97 on Disney+ this week – was asked about potential crossovers with other 90s Marvel shows. After it was noted that X-Men: The Animated Series “was a bigger part of a shared universe with Marvel animated TV shows during that era,” and thus that X-Men ’97 could follow suit, Winderbaum said the following:
Brad Winderbaum: X-Men ’97 fits directly into the continuity of the 90s animated shows, and as you know, there were some awesome crossovers, most notably with Spider Man[: The Animated Series.] I will say that if you remember the awesome cameos from the original show, you’re going to be happy in X-Men ’97, without going into spoiler territory. [laughs] It’s an exciting timeline to explore that ’90s world!
