Earlier today, Marvel Entertainment has released its official trailer for the upcoming animated series “What If…?” slated to stream over at Disney+ next month. In case you missed it, here’s a look at the 2-minute video.
The trailer begins with a very familiar scene from MCU’s initial film, Iron Man, where Tony Stark is faced with the mortal danger caused by his own company’s manufactured weapons. Then out of nowhere, Killmonger appears single-handedly throwing the rogue rocket out of the way and presumably making friends with the future Iron Man.
True to its title, the What If…? series explores the seemingly infinite possibilities of a Marvel cinematic multiverse, told from the perspective of the enigmatic Uatu the Watcher. And for the first time since the release of other MCU and Disney+ series such as WandaVision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and Loki, LEGO has revealed its first sets inspired directly by an MCU Disney+ series. We can expect a couple of LEGO Marvel tie-in sets in the likes of the LEGO Marvel Captain Carter & The Hydra Stomper (76201) which is now available for pre-order over at LEGO Shop@Home. And the LEGO Marvel Tony Stark’s Sakaarian Iron Man (76194), slated to be released in August. On top of these sets, we can also expect the arrival of a new LEGO Marvel CMF Series directly inspired by this wave of Disney+ shows. These sets are both scheduled to be released on August 1, with the LEGO Marvel Collectible Minifigures (71031) expected to be officially revealed.
Stay tuned for more updates, and while waiting, let’s continue to enjoy the latest Loki series over at Disney+.
