The first bloody trailer for the upcoming Disney+ animated series, “Marvel Zombies,” has been released.
The four-episode series was released on September 24th and will be Marvel’s first TV-MA animated series. The trailer introduces the official Marvel debut of Blade Knight, an undead violence, dismembered limbs, and Moon Knight and Blade variant, Blade Knight, who slices undead ghosts from Thunderbolts in a flashy display of swordsmanship. Todd Williams voices the classic Wesley Snipes character who reappeared in “Deadpool & Wolverine” and Vampire Slayer, the highly anticipated hero Variant of Mahershala Ali, who first announced he’ll be appearing in an undeveloped film in 2019.
“Marvel Zombies” began as season 1 of “What if?” It reconsidered Marvel’s universe as a zombie nightmare. MCU characters such as Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop, Jimmy Woo, Yelena Belova, Okoye, Captain America, Wanda Maximoff, Namor, and Avomination will be re-appearing in “Marvel Zombies.”
Voice cast includes Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Florence Pew, David Harbor, Tessa Thompson, Sim Liu, Aukwafina, Hailey Steinfeld, Wyatt Russell, Randall Park, Iman Verani and Dominic Thorne.
In Season 1, episode 5 of “What if?”, the Avengers and almost the entire world are infected with the zombie virus brought to you by Janet Van Diine from the quantum realm. The first victim is her husband Hank Pym, followed by her daughter, Hope Van Dyne (aka Wasp, aka Ant-Man). Many of the other Avengers turn into brain-eating corpses such as Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Wong, Hawkeye, Falcon, and Wanda Maximoff.
“What if?” episode, a team of humans including the “What if?” hornet, Spider-Man, Winter Soldier, Hulk, Sharon Carter, Okoye, and Ant-Man talking head in an Ant-Man bottle must escape the onslaught of zombies. Eventually, some of the survivors die, and the Hulk sacrifices himself to stop the extremely powerful Wanda Zombies, who have magical powers thanks to Mindstone. Humans flee to Wakanda, but the cliffhanger bullies Zombie Thanos with having an almost finished Infinity Gauntlet.
Robert Kirkman, creator of “Walking Dead,” created “Marvel Zombies” in 2005 as a comic book series. The show is created by Brian Andrews and Zeb Wells. Executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Dana Vasquez-Eberhardt, Bryan Andrews, Zeb Wells, and producers.
