X-Men ’97 Cast on the Legacy of First Class Mutants & Original Animated Series
Переглядів 161,244
Місяць томуDiving deep into what Marvel fans can expect from X-Men 97, the cast of the animated Disney Plus series sit down with Akeem Lawanson and IGN. Cal Dodd (original voice of “Wolverine”), Lenore Zann (original voice of “Rogue”), Holly Chou (the new voice of “Jubilee”), A.J. LoCascio (the new voice of “Gambit”), and Ray Chase (the new voice of “Cyclops”) discuss what it feels like to see the return of the series, the challenges they faced, and the attraction of the original X-Men animated series. The original #XMen animated series did such a great job of adapting some classic X-Men story lines, and now we get to see new stories being told and forged in the classic style of the original series.

Cal voicing Wolverine is like Kevin Conroy voicing Batman the Animated Series.

Yeah and Steve Blum as Wolverine is like what Bruce Greenwood is for Batman What makes Cal great is that his Wolverine sounds Canadian
@MetalArcade Місяць тому

@teddybeer6206 Місяць тому
That's my opinion as well. As far as I'm concerned, Cal Codd IS Wolverine. This is the ONLY Wolverine who's actually voiced by a Canadian.

My theory on how Rogue and Magneto could "touch" is once she has some of his powers, she instinctively creates a magnetic force with the same polarity as his. They are two magnets pushing each other apart & that gives her the sensation of touch without actually touching.

It’s nice to have the original voices for Wolverine, Rogue, Storm, & Beast back after so long. If they really planned of bringing back Spider-Man TAS, it should be called Spider-Man 98. Because that is when the show last ended. Be nice for the old voices for Peter, Cat, Venom, Carnage, & Norman to finished where they left off. While probably having some new voices for the other characters. Like having MJ, Harry, Dr.Connors, & Doc Ock being voiced by their voices from Ultimate Spider-Man.

To answer the question about future seasons: I'd introduce the Phalanx Covenant/Generation X. It calls for the (re)introduction of Emma (and her associated drama with Scott/Jean), the romantic tension between her and Banshee, and the formation of Generation X--the big new title introduced in the mid 90's. We'd also see a bunch of characters new to the canvas, like Skin, M, Synch, and Penance. This could also start a spinoff with Jubilee headlining. The Age of Apocalypse would also be awesome as well. We'd see revamped relationships (Magneto and Rogue are not only together, but have a kid), new characters (Nate Grey/Dark Beast--well, maybe not him), and an epic, possibly seasons-long storyline.
