During yesterday’s big Disney+ Showcase at the D23 Expo, the Mouse House shared a first-look image from the upcoming Marvel animated series What If…?, which features Hayley Atwell’s Peggy Carter as Captain Britain from a story that will reimagine the MCU had Peggy undergone the super soldier treatment rather than Steve Rogers; check it out here…
Among the What If…? footage shown to those in attendance was a shot of the Winter Soldier battling a zombified Captain America (confirming the earlier speculation about a Marvel Zombies story) and Steve Rogers suited up in some Iron Man-style armor, while it was also confirmed that the series will consist of 23 episodes – the same number of MCU movies released to date. Whether or not that means each movie will have its own specific episode is yet to be confirmed.
