Marvel fans have had no shortage of content to enjoy so far this year, especially on the small screen, where the MCU has delivered several hit TV shows. After new seasons of Wonder Man and Daredevil: Born Again dazzled fans around the world, Marvel shifted gears to animation for its latest release, X-Men ‘97. There is only one episode remaining in the second season of X-Men ‘97, but there is no cause to be concerned about the future of the show. Not only has X-Men ‘97 already been picked up for Season 3, but the show has also been officially renewed for Season 4. Marvel Studios Head of TV and Streaming Brad Winderbaum has expressed a strong desire for the show to be around for years, too, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see future seasons of the show beyond 2028.

One of the stars from the first two seasons of X-Men ‘97 is Gui Agustini, who voices Roberto Da Costa, aka Sunspot. Collider’s Maggie Lovitt recently caught up with Agustini for a quick chat after an event for X-Men ‘97 Season 2, and when asked if there was any particular comic story he wanted to see adapted into the show going forward, he told Collider: “So, I think I would love to have Cannonball come in and be part of this world somehow, and show a little bit of the bromance that they have in the comics with the New Mutants.”

He continued, also revealing another Season 1 character he would like to see back in the future: “Also, one of my favorite scenes is with Sunspot and Deathbird. In the first season, she makes an appearance, and I’m hoping she can come back, and maybe we can have a little something like in the comics and create a little drama between the three of us with Jubilee.”
