Marvel Studios ' Brad Winderbaum offered some insights into just how much Marvel Zombies connects back to the What If … ? Season 1 episode .
Even though Marvel Television’sWhat If … ?will enwrap up its run later this calendar month with its third time of year , the ( undead ) emotional state of the animate anthology series will " live " on in October 2025 with the premiere of the four - episode , telecasting - MA - stag animated spinoffMarvel Zombies . Of course , one of the first questions that gets asked in these situation commonly has to do with whether or not new viewers would need to go back and watch something that antecedently aired to understand what ’s operate on . Marvel Television and Marvel Animation headBrad Winderbaumaddressed that during an interview withEWin support ofWhat If … ?Season 3 hitting Disney+ screen on December 22nd with the first episode ( with subsequent episodes dropping daily ) .
" If you remember that zombies episode from time of year 1 [ S01E05 : " What If … Zombies ? ! " ] – that is very much like the part 1 prologue for this colossus , larger-than-life event that is come out next class , " Winderbaum share , adding that those who postulate a refresher or have n’t watched it yet should " definitely " do it before October . But what if you choose to dive right in without doing any " homework " ? As Winderbaum sees it , the series works on two unlike levels – you could watch just the four episodes and enjoy the level that ’s lay out , or you could watch theWhat If … ?episode for more of a " bigger picture " savvy of what ’s going down .
" It marry right in . It is the same universe . If you ’ve never find that episode of ' What If … ? ' you do derive at the universe from a unlike angle . So you could just determine the four episodes of ' Marvel Zombies ' come in completely blind because it does tell its own story . But if you do get laid that instalment of ' What If … ? ' and what chance in it , it does connect alone to that episode , " Winderbaum explained .
