From an article written by Josh Plainse on screenrant.com, ” What If..?’s Story Is As Important To The MCU As Other Marvel Projects.” So from executive producer Brad Winderbaum. Disney+’s What If…? is as important to the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe as any of Marvel Studio’s other projects. So unless you just were born yesterday I think everyone understands that of course What If is based on the Marvel comic book of the same name . It debuted in Marvel Comics in 1977 as an anthology series whose stories explore how the Marvel Universe might have unfolded if key moments in its history had not occurred as they did in mainstream continuity. It features Uatu, a member of a race of aliens called Watchers. from his base on the moon observing both Earth and alternate realities. He sort of narrates each episode and Jeffrey Wright will be filling the role in the Disney + show. The first What If story was ” What if Spider-Man had joined the Fantastic Four?” It presented an alternate version of events seen in The Amazing Spider-Man #1(1963). I of course saw the first trailer for What If…? and its about as far out there as ;possible. The first episode of the What If…? Disney + series will be Peggy Carter taking the super-soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers, while the second has Yondu abduct Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa instead of Peter Quill. In an interview with Deadline, VP of Production and Development at Marvel Studios, Winderbaum, actually gets into how What If will impact the larger MCU. ” It’s no coincidence that the show picks up after Loki. The multi-verse has erupted in every possible direction. What If…? gives us a chance to explore that…I think that without going into great detail, I can tell you that What If…? as a project, as a story that exists in the MCU, is as important as any other and is woven into that tapestry.” So we really do not totally know what we are getting into reviewing this Disney + show later this month but it should be interesting at the least. #What If…?, #Uatu, #the Watcher, #Peggy Carter, #Hayley Atwell, #Peter Quill, #T’Challa, #Black Panther, #Yondu, #Guardians Of The Galaxy, #Steve Rogers, #super-soldier serum, #Jeffrey Wright, #Marvel Studios, #Deadline, #Screenrant, #Captain America, #Spider-Man, #The Fantastic Four, #Marvel Comics, #Stan Lee
