What Time Does ‘What If…?’ Come Out on Disney+?

What If…? is almost here—and there is no rest for Marvel fans, not in 2021! The fourth Marvel Studios series this year is unlike any we’ve seen before. There’s the fact that What If…? is an animated series, sure, but the subject matter is also a wild departure from the MCU we all know and love. Springing out of the chaotic end of Loki Season 1 not even a month ago, What If…? uses the entire Marvel multiverse as its playground. Each episode will tell a story set in another one of these many, many different realities—realities where one tiny change has major ramifications. What if Peggy Carter got the super soldier serum? What if Black Panther was taken to outer space to become Star-Lord? Those are just some of the questions waiting to be answered and explored!
