The Remaining 'What If…?' Season 2 Episode Titles Have Been Revealed
Now you know what you’re getting each night for second Chanukah!
After a wait of over two years, Marvel’s What If…? finally returns for its second season in just a week. As previously reported, it’s going to be a holiday treat, rolling out daily until December 30. While three titles and two positions had already been confirmed, Friday saw the official socials release the schedule and confirm every title. Unfortunately none of the seven other premiseless titles got their premises released.
As revealed and screened at the premiere event, the season kicks off on December 22 with “What If… Nebula Joined the Nova Corps?” where “In a world where Ronan deposes Thanos long before the events of Infinity War, Nebula is recruited to join the Nova Corps. Desperate to escape her father’s shadow, she sets out to prove her detective chops.” December 23’s episode is “What If… Peter Quill Attacked Earth's Mightiest Heroes?” Quill’s circumstances are unclear but may be involving Ego. The third episode, releasing Christmas Eve, December 24 is “What If… Happy Hogan Saved Christmas?”. Screened at the premiere, it will tell “When Justin Hammer lays siege to Avengers Tower during the annual holiday party, there’s only one person left on site to stop him—Happy Hogan. But in setting out to prove his hero chops, Iron Man’s errand boy may end up transforming himself in more ways than one.” Christmas Day will finally see the release of the punted season 1 episode featuring Tony Stark stranded on Sakaar. Its title is “What If…Iron Man Crashed Into The Grandmaster?”
On December 26, we pick up on the note season 1 left off with Captain Carter very likely finding Steve and his Hydra Stomper in “What If…Captain Carter Fought the Hydra Stomper?”. December 27 brings us the introduction of 17th century Mohawk hero Kahhori, the first aspect of the season publicly discussed, with the confirmed title “What If…Kahhori Reshaped The Universe”. The world of heroes her empowering founds gets at least one more episode, but that’s not before Hela finds the Ten Rings in “What If…Hela Found the Ten Rings?”. Then comes “What If…The Avengers Assembled In 1602?”. The season finale airing December 30 is “What If Strange Supreme Intervened?” Which world event is he intervening on? We don’t know! The format of season 1 seems to imply he’ll get in on Kahhori’s world but that’s not quite confirmed.
Unlike season 1, we don’t quite have a full cast list of who’s reprising, so it seems we’ll be finding out as it airs. As for release times, the Marvel article about the premiere event says “every night”, but that doesn’t seem indicative when the normal traffic time is midnight Pacific.
