What If...? season 2 is very nearly here, and one of the most intriguing episodes is "What If... Kahhori Reshaped the World?" That's going to rewrite the MCU's history and add a brand new character to the franchise that, if nothing else, we'd expect to be a central figure in this animated series moving forward. 

There's a chance she'll appear in live-action, of course, and we now know who is voicing Kahhori: Echo and Reservation Dogs star Devery Jacobs. In the Disney+ series, she'll play Bonnie, a childhood friend of Maya Lopez's who reunites with her as an adult. 

We also have the official synopsis for the episode which reads, "After conquistadors lay siege to her tribe, a young Mohawk woman ventures into the Tesseract-powered waters of the legendary Forbidden Lake to recruit the forces of Sky World to help save her people."

In March, we learned that Kahhori will be a newly created character for this series and the MCU. In "What If... Kahhori Reshaped the World?" the show will ask what would happen if the Tesseract fell to Earth and landed in the sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy before the colonization of America.

The Tesseract is set to take on a new life and a new mythology, transforming a lake into a gateway to the stars and leading Kahhori, a young Mohawk woman, on a quest to discover her power.

Written by Ryan Little, the episode was created in close collaboration with members of the Mohawk Nation like historian Doug George and Mohawk language expert Cecelia King to ensure cultural authenticity. The story will be told in the Mohawk language and is informed by the history of the Akwesasne region in what is now upstate New York.

"Season two of 'What If...?' continues the journey as The Watcher guides viewers through the vast multiverse, introducing brand new and familiar faces throughout the MCU," reads a brief synopsis which was released alongside a trailer last month. "The series questions, revisits and twists classic Marvel Cinematic moments with an incredible voice cast that includes a host of stars who reprise their iconic roles."

"Featuring fan-favorite characters this season like Nebula, Hela and Happy Hogan, episodes are directed by executive producer Bryan Andrews with executive producer AC Bradley as head writer."

What If...? season 2 starts streaming on Disney+ starting December 22. In the spirit of the holiday season, we'll get to unwrap a new episode nightly for nine nights.
