#4. What Will The Second Season Be About?

From what we’ve seen from the trailer, it seems that What If…? Season 2 will feature some bizarre storyline just like the first. Firstly, we have the Avengers team in the 90s era, with familiar faces like Howard Stark, Hank Pym as Ant-Man, or Laurence Fishburne as Giant-Man. They’ll team up to restrain a 9-year-old Peter Quill, who recently discovered his Celestial powers.
Another storyline suggests that Nebula, now a part of the Nova Corps, is going on a mission to find a certain someone. Meanwhile, Tony Stark is cast on a barren island alongside Gamora, Valkyrie, and the Grandmaster. In other stories, we have Hela and Strange Supreme making their return, Wanda Maximoff teaming up with the Ten Rings, and Captain Carter to travel the Multiverse with The Watcher.

What If…? Season 2 also introduces to us a brand-new MCU superhero, Kahhori. Unlike the rest, Kahhori is an MCU original character, who was a member of a Mohawk tribe in the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Kahhori will gain her cosmic powers thanks to the Tesseract falling to Earth, allowing her to open space portals and such.
