What If…? is the new animated series from Marvel Studios released to Disney+ on Wednesday, August 11, 2021. The anthology series is on the comic book series of the same name and reimagines Marvel characters in stories you know from the MCU films that deviate into a different reality, or perhaps multiverse. For example: What if Peggy Carter took the Super Soldier serum and instead became Captain Britain? What if Steve Rogers was Iron Man instead of Tony Stark? What if T’Challa became Star-Lord? What if Thor was a villain? 10 What If…? episodes will cover these possible realities in the MCU and more. A new episode will drop every Wednesday for 10 episodes. Jeffrey Wright voices Uatu The Watcher, who narrates the series. At the same time, MCU regulars Michael B. Jordan, the late Chadwick Boseman, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, Jeff Goldblum, Paul Rudd, Jeremy Renner, Sebastian Stan, Toby Jones, Hayley Atwell, Chris Evans, Michael Douglas, Samuel L. Jackson, Mark Ruffalo, Taika Waititi, and many more will reprise their MCU roles.
