The theme song is in our heads already. Classic '90s cartoon X-Men: The Animated Series has been revived under a new title – X-Men ’97 – and it’s coming to Disney Plus in 2023.
As per The Wrap, X-Men ’97 will "pick up" where the original series left off and will include several returning voice cast members.
The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf writer Beau DeMayo heads up the writing staff, while the link to X-Men: The Animated Series remains unbroken thanks to the presence of OG writers Eric and Julia Lewald acting as consultants.
Nothing else has been revealed other than a snazzy Nineties logo and a 2023 release window but our childhood dreams have come true: X-Men: The Animated Series is back – and we couldn’t be happier. And sorry for getting the theme song stuck in your head for the next month.
Elsewhere on Disney Plus Day, the House of Mouse has released an Obi-Wan Kenobi series sizzle reel, announced multiple new Marvel TV shows, and there’s even a look at the all-new Predator prequel, Prey.
