LOS ANGELES — The X-Men are back this summer, fractured across time and facing their greatest threats yet!
Marvel Animation has released the official trailer for the second season of “X-Men ’97” ahead of its upcoming premiere on Disney+ on July 1.
The upcoming season finds the heroic mutant team divided and thrown across an ancient past, the present, and a distant future as they struggle to find a way back home. Meanwhile, back in the 1990s, rising mutants take hold during the team’s absence.
Returning voice cast members include Jennifer Hale as Jean Grey, Cal Dodd as Wolverine, Lenore Zann as Rogue, and Ross Marquand as Apocalypse.
Picking up from the events of Season 1, the trailer footage heavily features the mutant supervillain Apocalypse.
The trailer opens on a somber note with Rogue sitting beside Nightcrawler. “It’s hard to believe what’s not waitin’ for me,” Rogue says. “Someone I lost, someone special.” The trailer then shows Rogue with Gambit, whom she lost in Season 1.
An unseen voiceover explains the stakes of their new fight, noting that the team is scattered “from the start of Apocalypse’s reign, to the future at the height of his rule.”
Apocalypse himself vows to crush the heroes, stating, “The X-Men… I must strike them at their most vulnerable. The 1990s.”
The mission to unite the team receives commentary from Lucas Bishop, who declares, “We got to get the X-Men back. To the ’90s.” Rogue later adds, “This isn’t just about us. It’s about everyone we’ve lost.”
The trailer balances these stakes with a high level of action, showcasing a montage of fight sequences, fire scenes, and time-travel before grounding itself once more in the team’s core mission.
“From the beginning of time, to the reaches of tomorrow…we stand together. Right here, right now.” Nightcrawler says. “I believe in the X-Men.”
“X-Men ’97” Season 2 is available to stream on Disney+ beginning July 1.
