Marvel Is Working on a Theatrical Animated Film That Could Be Related to ‘X-Men ’97’

As a gamer who grew up watching X-Men ’97 and has been following Marvel‘s animated projects closely, I can’t help but feel a wave of excitement at the rumors circulating about a potential feature-length animated movie. If these rumors are true, it would be a dream come true for many of us who have longed to see our favorite mutants on the big screen again.


Regardless of the debates about the project and its impact on the long-standing X-Men series narrative, X-Men ’97 turned out to be a significant triumph for Marvel. It served as a blast from the past for fans of the original series, it retained the same animation style as the initial series without any major modifications, and it boasted an engaging plotline.

The reasons behind Marvel’s satisfaction with the final product and the upcoming second season have made many fans joyful. However, with the chatter about future projects lately, it appears that Marvel may not be planning to stop at just this series, or any series for that matter.

It’s been whispered by some recent reports that Marvel might be producing an animated film intended for cinema screenings. The details about this movie are still under wraps, but there’s speculation it could tie in with the X-Men ’97 project, making it quite exciting!

Thanks to Deadpool and Wolverine, along with several significant announcements such as Robert Downey Jr.’s return, the Marvel rumor mill has been buzzing quite actively. Given this context, we’ve got some fresh gossip for you. According to The Cosmic Circus podcast, Marvel might be working on a significant animated project. It could potentially tie in with the X-Men ’97 series.

Titan: Could it be that Marvel Studios might release an animated movie as part of their upcoming series in theaters?

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m pretty hyped! They’re cooking something Marvel Animation related, destined for the big screen. But here’s the thing, I don’t know the details yet. Based on my speculations, it could very well be none other than X-Men ’97.

Jace: Any word on other future Marvel animated projects that could be happening?

Alex: For the moment, we’re concentrating on the known ones. As for those unknown, I’ve heard a rumor about a potential Eternals series styled like an anime, but as far as I know, it was still in the pitching phase last time.

Din Djarin: Could it be that they might unite the horde and the annihilation wave in the future, perhaps when Annihilus arrives or makes an appearance?

Alex mentioned that although the Horde is recognized within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), they’ve been in a state of inactivity so far. However, their debut is expected to take place in the movie known as “Eyes of Wakanda.”

Wade: Do you know if season 2 of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-man is still happening?

Alex: Yes, it’s still in development.
