Ray Chase, Jennifer Hale, Alison Sealy-Smith, Cal Dodd, J. P. Karliak, Lenore Zann, George Buza, A. J. LoCascio, Holly Chou, Isaac Robinson-Smith, Matthew Waterson, Ross Marquand, and Adrian Hough star as members of the X-Men. Sealy-Smith, Dodd, Zann, Buza, and Hough reprised their roles from the original series. The revival was announced in November 2021, with DeMayo and Castorena attached. DeMayo wanted to continue the original series' soap opera-style relationship drama and update its social commentary to match contemporary society. The season adapts several comic book storylines, including 2001's "E Is for Extinction" by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely as part of developing the X-Men for a post-9/11 audience. Voice recording and animation work began by the official announcement, with the animation being provided by Studio Mir and Tiger Animation.
The season premiered on the streaming service Disney+ on March 20, 2024, with its first two episodes. The other eight episodes were released weekly until May 15. A second season was confirmed in July 2022.[1][2]
