- Diving deep into what Marvel fans can expect from X-Men 97, the cast of the animated Disney Plus series sit down with Akeem Lawanson and IGN. Cal Dodd (original voice of “Wolverine”), Lenore Zann (original voice of “Rogue”), Holly Chou (the new voice of “Jubilee”), A.J. LoCascio (the new voice of “Gambit”), and Ray Chase (the new voice of “Cyclops”) discuss what it feels like to see the return of the series, the challenges they faced, and the attraction of the original X-Men animated series. The original #XMen animated series did such a great job of adapting some classic X-Men story lines, and now we get to see new stories being told and forged in the classic style of the original series.

Cal voicing Wolverine is like Kevin Conroy voicing Batman the Animated Series.
Yeah and Steve Blum as Wolverine is like what Bruce Greenwood is for Batman
What makes Cal great is that his Wolverine sounds Canadian
Love Steve Blum too
That's my opinion as well. As far as I'm concerned, Cal Codd IS Wolverine.
This is the ONLY Wolverine who's actually voiced by a Canadian.
@@JOVONO
The fact that Cal actually is Canadian helps.
In what way?
Watch the internet go crazy when 90s Spider-Man appears in an episode.
Facts! 😎
Will he show up?🤔
Hell yes
Oh man, it's the rumor
Don't...don't give me hope!!!
Jesus...i was 100% certain Gambit and Cyclops were the same voice actors too. Amazing job there.
Would have been an a miracle if Cyclops's actor did return, considering he passed away in 2020.
Gambit has been recast, though his OG voice actor will still be apart of the series as Cable.
This is awesome to see the faces behind the characters 👏👏👏... Awesome...
@@thesilverblack708OG VA for Cable became new Villain FOH Carl Denti known as X-cutioner
Wow so they rotated voice actors around? Wish they kept the same ones but that’s a pretty cool alternative.
So who is who now? Plz help me
Can't believe that Cal Dodd still interprets Wolverine perfectly after all these years
He’s the best at what he does.
And what he does isn’t very nice.
@@twosense7723 bub.
Rogue screaming and saying "Get Out of My Head' will forever be burned in my mind😂😂
You couldn’t replace Lenore playing Rogue! She used her own voice and still sounds fabulous!
Proof in hand: episode 5.
@@Gargoyle_75 Still sad about that... She's a treasure!
She sounds more like her now than on 97. The ADR did not do her justice. Hopefully this is fixed for season 2.
She was incredible. Ep 5s final line made me cry. And she kept it up for the rest of the season. Goated
Cal’s Wolverine is as iconic as Kevin Conroy’s Batman
im 41 and just so happy we get the X-Men Animation back!
Same I'm 41 as well.
Me too
Early 80s kids. We were all in elementary school or junior high running home to catch it on fox 5
And the story is peak again too
Born in the 90s and now I’m in my 30s, it’s a new era and rebirth that X-Men from the 90s is back 26 years later. 🥹❤️
It kinda looks like the cast has dressed up reminiscent of their own characters. That’s dope! 😀
The actors new and old are doing fantastic. Seriously.
Damn! The way Ray rips that line about Gambit and the beignets! That's incredible.
He sounds like the original
Ray Chase honors Norm Spencer perfectly and same goes with Matthew Waterson honoring David Hemblen.
Ray Chase Voice of The Winter Soldier from Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 is now finally picked cyclops in X-men 97
Is he also Nuivelette in Genshin impact?
@@akombalasau4022 Yes he is!
@@julesdedoro9950he's Noctis from Final Fantasy 15 too
@@rohanbesra4831 and later he appeared in DLC Tekken 7 as guest fighter in Season 2 alongside Geese Howard from Fatal Fury in season 1 and season 3 Main Antagonist from the walking dead series.
100% best wolverine voice hands down
His voice actually _improved_ with age. It’s surreal and very rare!
Yes and his Wolverine is the most Canadian sounding as well
For me, him, Hugh Jackman and Steve Blum are equally great as Wolverine
Wished that Cal picked up the picture frame and caressed Jean Grey's picture lol
@@ytuser_3122 1. Dodd 2. Blum 3. Jackman
The WE CAN TOUCH! Between Lenore and A.J. Was priceless.😂Gambit and Rogue are endgame!🤙🏽🤎💙🩷💚💛
Well, this sentence makes full sense after episode 5.
Absolutely heartbroken 💔😢
Now I'm Heartbroken 😭
Cal Dodd will always be Wolverine's voice in my mind. X-Men the Animated Series and the Capcom Marvel fighting games cemented Cal into Wolverine's character.
Tornado Claw! Lives rent free in my mind.
BERSERKER BARRAGE!
Batman, Power Rangers, and Marvel were Fox Kids' Dynamic Trio
With Merry Melodies and Steven Speildberg serving as excellent support.
Wolverine is one of the few fictional characters to have a perfectly cast voice actor & perfectly cast movie actor play him. Cal even looks like a real life wolverine
The craziest thing about Cal is that he used to be a David Cassidy-type pop singer in the 70's.
Cal Dodd, Hugh Jackman and Steve Blum are the best actors for Wolverine
The cast not knowing how popular (read: how much money) the show was at the time is so Saban
Im just happy jubilee finally gets her time back after all the movies shoving her to the back
Jubilee is the GOAT
Jubilee wasn’t in the comics originally that’s why she was sidelined in the movies
Jubilee was in the comics wtf are you talking about?
She made her comics debut in 1989 which was literally three years before the 90’s X-Men animated series
They even shoved her to the back in this interview
She was shoved because originally in the comics, it was Kitty Pryde/Shadowcat who was in her place. They got Jubilee instead after the first pilot flopped.
Lenore is my heart. Rogue forever
What an awesome interview. I'm so glad this series has come back, now we can get to know the voice actors better and they can in turn receive their flowers
Nothing but LOVE for the cast of X-Men 97. They are doing an amazing job. 🥰
as soon as Lenore Zann spoke, it feels like it's '97 all over again❤❤❤
My theory on how Rogue and Magneto could "touch" is once she has some of his powers, she instinctively creates a magnetic force with the same polarity as his. They are two magnets pushing each other apart & that gives her the sensation of touch without actually touching.
Probably
That's always the way it made sense to me
Ray Chase - does he sound like Cyclops all the time? cause that voice is *chef's kiss*
Perfect portrayal of Wolverine; short and grumpy with a thick Canadian accent
Cal will forever be the greatest wolverine. Not even Hugh Jackman lived up to his portrayal of the character
its really sad that they didnt receive all their fanmail
I'm so happy we get X-Men '97. The og just had so much influence on my imagination and geekiness to come lol. And the new series is great !
It's great to see both cast members new and old and hear how they felt about the original series and this continuation. Akeem did a great job with this interview being both a fan and a professional at the same time.
Akeem is the best IGN interviewer, tbh
Absolutely fantastic interview. Seeing all of them bring back that energy and spark of the OG X-Men brings joy to my heart.
Best voice of Wolverine in history
X-Men 97 truly is a masterpiece!😆🙌🏽🔥🟡🔴
This show is a massive success! It has become a hit!
No surprise there. After decades, we finally have the REAL X-Men back in the mainstream.
nah they've got the picture frame of scott and jean
wow rogue va still got it
FYI when they say “top 2 animated” series, the other one is Batman the animated series if it wasn’t obvious. Both shows at the same time was a hell of a time to be alive.
If it was another, would you be angry? :P
My heroes. X-Men, Spider-Man, Batman Tas, Justice League, and AMH. All classics. Best shows.
The classic lineup!
16:50 « Jean! Jean! Jean! JEAN! JEEEEEAAAAN!!!!! » 😂
Jean-gle Bells
Jean-gle Bells
Jean-gle All The Way 🤣
Love Lenore's Rogue Letterman Jacket. Now, all that's missing are her X-Men earrings she was wearing in a previous interview.
The old and new cast are iconic
My younger self (decades ago) and my present self are freaking out and loving all of this! ❤🎉
yOUR YOUNGER SELF IS YOU.
Why wasn't Alison Sealy-Smith a part of this interview? She's one of the few original cast members too
Maybe not on the area.
Because she's still sad about her power loss.
Probably just a scheduling issue.
The whole cast has been bombarded with interview requests lol
She is not the original but she voice matched her completely to the point it is her own.
This is so cool. Loved their voices in the original.
Just watched Cold Vengeance again. Such a great performance from Cal
Lenore Zann will ALWAYS be Rogue to me sugah.
I'm curious as to why they didn't let Chris Potter play Gambit. Imo he's just as iconic as Rogue or Wolverine's voice.
Catherine Disher also curiously didn't reprise her role as Jean Grey either.
Even weirder is Chris Potter is still part of this new show but voicing a different character. Maybe he's busy doing other things and cannot commit fulltime.
@@fv6125 Chris Potter actually voices Cable in the new series instead of Gambit. Catherine Disher is in the new series as well, she voices Valerie Cooper. It's strange that both came back to the new series but didn't reprise their old roles.
The actor for Rogue is fresh af in that custom letterman. My apologies for not being familiar with your game
voice acting on the show was incredible!
Take a bow ray chase
Cal and Lenore are amazing people, meeting them was a dream come true .Well worth a ticket to a Con if they are going
Fantastic interview 👏
Most animated series I've grown out of, but X-Men '97 is genuinely engaging. Just picked up the entire original series and look forward to watching it again.
Well, x men 97 is the first project of Marvel in being considered a masterpiece since endgame, so, get ready, u're gonna be around for a while guys!! this has to last at least 10 seasons!! fan base is gonna support this and not let it go
this is the best thing disney has done since infinity war. its like having a piece of a childhood back... brought back as strong as possible. you guys are dope.
Really fun interview 😊
If Capcom make another marvel vs Capcom, they have to use these guys.
Didn’t catch his name, but interviewer killed this 🏆
Akeem
Thank you 🙏🏾
yay! interviews with the cast
Batman and X Men the top 2
do you know what list they are referencing? cause IGN's own list has x-men at #13. batman at #2
Big shout-out to Akeem's mother for lending him her glasses for the interview.
you're a fake fan. those are Stan Lee specs.
well, you guys are gonna win a Emmy just from episode five.. rogues voice actor MVP
It’s nice to have the original voices for Wolverine, Rogue, Storm, & Beast back after so long. If they really planned of bringing back Spider-Man TAS, it should be called Spider-Man 98. Because that is when the show last ended. Be nice for the old voices for Peter, Cat, Venom, Carnage, & Norman to finished where they left off. While probably having some new voices for the other characters. Like having MJ, Harry, Dr.Connors, & Doc Ock being voiced by their voices from Ultimate Spider-Man.
THANKS for this!!!!
that gambit voice actor can be exactly like Remy/gambit himself...sad that the other OG voice actors are gone...excited that we get renewed for 2 new seasons
Not all the OG voices are gone. Most like OG Gambit (Chris Potter) and OG Julibee are voicing other characters because one thing or another. For instance, Chris Potter will voice Cable and OG Cable voiced X-Cutioner.
Fox really did them dirty
Love the framed picture of Cyclops and Jean. Great touch
Hi Sugah
ray did a helluva job with cyclops sounds exactly like the former actor that passed away
hiding the fan mail jus to keep their wages down is outrageous
This show is lit!!!! Please keep up the phenomenal work. My entire family are ecstatic for the airing of the show…
This is Awesome! I'm so Happy They're back & I'm Happy for them.👍🏾
Batman, X-Men, and Gargoyles will always be my holy trinity of 90's animation.
Can't argue with that. That's a great lineup.
Wow they are great humble and genuine and passionate
The tease to Spiderman TAS happened in the first episode and it will happen. They will bring back John Semper Jr.
This makes me so emotional 🥹🥹
Legends
Why does Cal Dodd sound more like the old Wolverine here then on the show? Weird.
Is it just me or does Ray Chase’s Cyclops sound exactly like when Chris Parnell VA’s a confident Cyril Figgis? 😅😅😅
"Here's my voice audition reel mon ami ... remember it"
We all know why xmen TAS is still popular, its all because of rogue 😏
hardly ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Love how they all have visual aspects of their characters
Dude voicing Gambit could definitely play him in movie adoption as well. Disney pleas! 🥺
Solo Gambit Movie coming next year upcoming MCU Mutant Saga
You trying to give Channing Tatum a premature heart attack😂
He was Marty McFly in Telltale's BTTF games.
@@adamoxenif he dies, he dies - Omega Red probably
@@murk4552 🤣🤣🤣
I’m about to turn 30 real soon and I’m already in love with X-Men. And Disney recently recreated X-Men ‘97? I’m all in!
This rules,i cant get enough of X-men
Wait...thats NOT the o.g voice for cyclops??? Great job man!
Yeah, sadly the OG voice passed away in 2020.
Ray Chase (new VA) has been killing it in the anime industry, and he's now a fantastic Cyclops!
Hes no longer breathing. Hes gone. Passed away. Ups and Daisies. Ash to ash dust to dust. Flatline. HE DEAD
Ray Chase is the same age as me and he’s from Freehold NJ 😲 he did Scott perfectly
X Men was the first series that got me into comic books and Manga and anime.
These guys are rockstars!!!
I'm very surprised to hear them say they were unaware until 3 years in it was a hide. It was a massive phenomenon before the 1st season ended.
Wolverine and Rogue's voices along with Storm's are arguably the most iconic ones in the show.
Jennifer Hale is the definitive Jean now! Been a fan of here since Spider-Man TAS
97 is the best xmen stuff that even exist.
X Men is the greatest show
They all resemble their characters!
This is great ❤❤❤
Wolverines animated face looks like his voice actors.
They low-key didn't want to say the corporation undercut them to save money
Jean Jean Jean Jean!!! 😂😅
This is so dope
