Marvel Studios "What If?" animated series will explore alternate scenarios from The Infinity Saga


By now, many know and have seen what Marvel Studios has planned for the next couple of years with their official reveal of their "Phase 4" plans last weekend at the 50th annual San Diego Comic-Con. That includes the upcoming "What If?" series for Disney + - the very first animated series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and exploring "alternated realities" where decisions are made differently and characters explore differents paths and adventures that were not presented in the MCU films.

According to Kevin Feige, that's exactly the focus of the first season of the show - which will explore the first 23 films that make up Phases 1-3, aka The Infinity Saga.

"Right now, we’re focusing on for the first season, everything you know about the 23 movies in the Infinity Saga and adding one twist to them and seeing how everything turns out different."

One of the plans for "What If?" of course is turning Peggy Carter into the Super Soldier instead of scrawny Steve Rogers - as Feige mentioned again in an interview with Screen Rant. Also confirmed during the Hall H panel of Marvel Studios is that several actors and actresses who played these iconic roles in their respective films will be back - meaning Hayley Atwell and Chris Evans will reprise their roles as Peggy Carter and Steve Rogers!

What If? will hit Disney+ sometime in Summer 2021
