The third and final season of What If...? is nearly here, and Marvel Studios has released a new teaser (via ComicBookMovie.com) offering a clearer idea of what's to come later this month.
While a lot of this preview is devoted to previous episodes - as a way of encouraging fans to go back and watch them - we also see plenty of intriguing season 3 footage. That includes Storm wielding Thor's hammer Mjolnir, the return of Mysterio, and Red Guardian assembling alongside The Avengers.
We still don't know whether What If...? will finally tie into the wider Multiverse Saga with this final season, though we'd imagine Marvel Animation will do something to at least tease what's to come in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. Well, that's the hope, anyway (Captain Carter surely deserves a place in those stories).
"What If...? season 3 feels like the completion of a trilogy," Marvel Studios' Head of Marvel Streaming, Television and Animation, Brad Winderbaum, recently revealed. "It takes us to places you'd never expect."
"It goes beyond the first two seasons in its exploration of the Multiverse and it pulls in characters that are very unexpected," he teased. "It has what I think is an extremely moving and fulfilling culmination for Uatu, The Watcher."
