WHAT IF? Poster Reveals The "Guardians Of The Multiverse" - Possible SPOILERS

A new poster for Disney+'s What If? has been spotted out in the wild, and it seemingly confirms plans for a new team to assemble in the Marvel Cinematic Universe - the Guardians of the Multiverse...

Up until now, it looked a lot like What If? would simply tell the stories of alternate versions of familiar faces from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, a newly revealed poster has teased possible wider consequences for the series as a new team is brought together by The Watcher.

Are you ready for the Guardians of the Multiverse?

As you can see below, the group is comprised of Peggy Carter/Captain Britain, Erik Killmonger, T'Challa/Star-Lord, Gamora, Black Widow, Doctor Strange, and an alternate version of Thor. 

That's quite the lineup, but what threat could lead to Uatu travelling through the Multiverse to assemble this team in this animated series? That remains to be seen, but What If? just got a whole lot more intriguing, and is likely going to have bigger consequences for the MCU than we initially suspected. After all, The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels have had an impact on what we've seen in live-action, so chances are the same will be the case here too.

Check out this new poster for What If? below, and keep checking back here as we'll hopefully have more to share with you soon.

I saw something about Feige saying the series will basically retell the infinity saga, so maybe they’ll be up against some alternate version of Thanos?

@dracula - I think the killmonger here is gonna become black panther. Maybe he's from the same universe where tchalla gets taken by the ravagers.

Out of all the alternate universe stories revealed in the trailer I am only interested in Zombie Captain America and Peggy's Captain Britain!

@KanchaCheena - gotta admit I don't like the premise of these. The point of what if is that it's the same universe you know, but this one pretty plausible but distinct thing happens. Peggy getting the serum is the only one following this philosophy. But why would the ravagers take tchalla when the whole reason for being on earth at all was to take Peter? And I really don't see how it works to say "winter soldier but cap becomes a zombie". I'm actually kinda interested in the evil Dr strange, since it implies he runs into another strange who could be from the mcu.

"And I really don't see how it works to say "winter soldier but cap becomes a zombie"

I think it ties in with the stuff we have seen of Nick Fury.

The Super Soldier serum is what re-animates Cap after he is removed from the Ice. Then he causes havoc in the shield base and Winter Soldier is sent after him.

Would be cool to see a flashpoint type marvel world, like all these small changes being thrown into one world like

How would the Infinity Saga go without Steve Rogers as Captain America and if T'Challa wasn't on earth.

What if Banner had failed to change and died at the end of the incredible hulk

A lot of small changes would obviously make things end very differently

What If

Rhodey had been taken by the Ten Rings

Banner had been cured

Tony had not discovered the new element

Frost Giants had won the war

Hydra had prevented Captain America's creation

Thanos had come to earth with Loki

Before I was completely cool with them moving forward without T’Challa but now I think I really want them to recast him. T’Challa is such an important character and I know it’s going to be hard for people to accept some who is not Chadwick but there’s so much that T’Challa adds to the MCU.

@JonAwesome - Or at least find a voice actor who can do a spot on impression of Chadwick's T'Challa and show T'Challa suited up for some sequences to give him a lingering presence in the MCU.

@JonAwesome - I think that a recast should happen, but I say give it a bit of time. I don’t think Black Panther 2 will be called Black Panther 2. Tbh it might be a great way to basically be a launching point for the Wakanda series. Do that for a few years before a recast so there could be more of a definitive plan to recast when the time is right.

Off topic, but anyone see what’s happening on Twitter? #MakeTheBatfleckMovie is trending with over 100K tweets, and it’s crazy... these guys are talking as if WB screwed him over and cancelled his movie.

They do know he dropped out because of his own personal issues, right?

@DaHyro - no they don't. Because they're a bunch of selfish, entitled pricks
