Seems to be confirmed season 2 will be this year.
Marvel's What If Season 2 Receives Promising Release Update

 

Marvel's What If...? Season 2 2022 Release Confirmed By Writer

 

I mean....I will watch it, sure. But am I pumped for it? Not really. Last season was fairly meh. Worst MCU product to date. Heck, I would rather watch a garden variety episode of Agents of SHIELD or Cloak & Dagger than What If based on last season. Def cannot muster the same enthusiasm as I can for likes of Secret Invasion or Armor Wars and such

 

Today, Chadwick Boseman, received an Emmy nomination for his work as T'Challa in What If.
FINGERS CROSSED!

 

Liking the Asgardian content.

 

Oh **** yeah. 1602 was one of the first Gaiman works I ever read.

 

My interest overall on What If is fairly low. But you know what I think would be a cool use of this show? Assuming the end up doing Battleworld for Secret Wars, I would love to see a full What If season about Battleworld. Make every episode about a different section of Battleworld using the variants who will be in the movie.

 

That would actually be pretty cool and now I want this to happen lol. They did announce a season 3 was greenlit at SDCC and given season 2 is gonna come early 2023, I could definitely see a season 3 being ready by summer/fall 2025, before Secret Wars releases in November.

 

Apparently the storyboards for 3 episodes of the 2nd season leaked online (the usual Reddit spoilers forum).

But the 3 episodes seem to be about (guesses from the Mods)...

Spoiler

What If the Red Guardian joined the Avengers
What If Surtur invaded Earth instead of Asgard
What If Yondu took Quill to his father.

I was only able to look at the 1st one before the pages stopped loading (I assume they got taken down). If anyone wants more info, you can check out the comments on that particular thread. The descriptions of the 3rd episode seem particularly interesting.

 

What If? Season 2 Bringing Back Major Marvel Star

 

They already fired everyone from Spider-Man: Freshman Year and seemingly cancelled season 2 (AKA Sophomore Year).

And now there are rumors that there are more animated things that might be in trouble. What If will probably only be renewed if season 2 performs really well.

 

That's not good. Between this and WB, it seems we're gonna see less animated projects coming out.
