X-Men '97 Season 1 Review
Premiering on Disney+ on March 20, ‘X-Men ‘97’ will pick up from where season 5 of the original series left off in 1997. The series consists of ten episodes with updated animation in the same style and features returning voice talents such as Cal Dodd, Lenore Zann, Alison Sealy-Smith, and George Buza reprising their roles. For those who grew up on the original 90’s cartoon, the anticipation for this series is high.
‘X-Men ‘97’ not only captures the heart and soul of the original but adds elevated animation and gripping storylines that’ll leave audiences wanting more. The familiar intro is refreshed but is still very similar to the 1992 series. Once the theme song kicks in, you’ll feel like you’re transported right back to that era, once again watching the characters you’ve grown up with.
The series will premiere with two episodes, then one episode releasing weekly
