description What If...? Overview

What If...? is an animated anthology series produced by Marvel Studios that premiered on Disney+ in August 2021. Each episode explores alternate scenarios within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, imagining how events might have unfolded differently if key moments were changed. The series is narrated by Jeffrey Wright as the Watcher, a cosmic observer who monitors these alternate realities without interfering.

Many actors from the live-action MCU films reprise their roles in voice form, and the first season's ninth episode brought together characters from across the alternate timelines for a team-up story.
