Does X-MEN ’97 animated revival take place in the MCU multiverse?

With the Marvel Studios logo sitting prominently atop X-MEN ’97, it’s natural for one to ponder if the animated revival will find a way to connect itself with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.Having the multiverse come into play with ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ and ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’, it’s easy to see how animated worlds can exist within the greater MCU.

Speaking with The Direct, series head writer Beau DeMayo had this to say about the possibility.

“The one thing I can say towards that is, I know sometimes we say, No comment,’ and it’s like, ‘They’re just being obstinate.’ I’m gonna go with no comment here because part of the surprise will be finding that out when you experience the show,” he said. “I can’t speak to marketing, but I think there is a degree of—you will be asking that question.”

X-Men ’97 will premiere on Disney+ next year.
