Summary:
Superheroes torn from the pages of Marvel Comics come together in the aftermath of tragedy in a continuation of X-Men: The Animated Series, which completed its run in 1997. Following the loss of their leader, Professor Charles Xavier (voiced by Ross Marquand), the X-Men face new challenges that could tear them apart. The weight of responsibility rests on the shoulders of Beast (George Buza), Cyclops (Ray Chase), Gambit (AJ LoCascio), Jean Grey (Jennifer Hale), Jubilee (Holly Chou), Rogue (Lenore Zann), Storm (Alison Sealy-Smith) and Wolverine (Cal Dodd). As anti-mutant sentiment grows, Xavier's sworn enemy Magneto (Matthew Waterson) fills the void to usher in a dangerous new era
Why watch X-Men '97?:
Get ready to have that theme tune stuck in your head once more, as X-Men: The Animated series has been revived in the new, hugely popular X-Men '97. Picking up right where the original show left off, this new iteration brings back many of the same voice actors and sticks to the show's original animation style, while dusting off the cobwebs and giving everything a fresh lick of paint.
What has been created is a hugely nostalgic experience for fans of the original show, but also a dramatic, exciting and fresh new adventure in its own right, which continues to take the characters to unexpected places and deliver shocking moments that no one will see coming.
