In production

How much in production an animated project has to be so that it can become an article? BestDaysofMusic (talk) 15:55, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

We generally need to have confirmation that animation is underway and the actors are working on it, plus enough general coverage to meet WP:GNG. - adamstom97 (talk) 03:38, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

The actors are definitely working on it. Cal Dodd was doing voice work back in January.

Yes, but we in the process of animation, voice actors start recording, before sequences get sent to final animation rendering. We need to know that final animation has begun to move. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:34, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

S2 recordings happening - time to move?

Since we know Dodd has begun work recording on season 2, is that any helpful indication season 1 has to be, at least partially, on to final animation work which would allow a move? We'd definitely pass WP:GNG regardless. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:11, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

I don't know how much we can assume about that because they can get really ahead on writing and recording in animation, but it does suggest that they are confident enough that multiple seasons will be released and a good amount of animation work is likely to be done by now. Part of me feels we should just go ahead and make the move, but with the planned slow down of releases I am also cautious about getting too hopeful for things that have been announced but don't have a confirmed release date. - adamstom97 (talk) 18:43, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

While I do feel the series must be down the line in animation, I am skeptical at the rate for us to go off of given there has not been many updates regarding it, plus the current slow down going around. Part of me just isn't as confident we should make a move as I'd have hoped. Trailblazer101 (talk) 23:42, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Actors and characters

Can this source (about halfway through) be used to support some additional actors reprising their original roles? I'm half of the mind that they're just putting 2 and 2 together from the actors returning, and it isn't an "actual" confirmation. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:56, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

I'm leaning toward no on this one, as it appears to just be putting 2 and 2 together as you said. The voice cast of the original series was recently at C2E2 for a panel where they discussed some bits on both the original and revival, though I haven't had time to verify/add anything from it. I've found Big Comic Page and Popverse (needs a subscription) covered that panel. I saw BCP's discussed some cast returning with specified roles. Trailblazer101 (talk) 20:25, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Showrunner?

At least two news pages call DeMayo the series' showrunner and this one calls him both showrunner and head writer, even througth Marvel Studios wasn't hirimg actual showrunners until October 2023, and season 2 was already underway by then so maybe they refer to him as a showrunner due to him being the showrunner starting with season 2. So, how do we proceed? BestDaysofMusic (talk) 21:53, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

As stated in my removal of this change, Marvel's website and press material still refer to him as head writer for season 1. It seems far too early at the moment for season 2 production info to be released by them, so we should just wait to see how they formally credit him as we get closer to season 2's release, whenever that is. No change or adjustment should happen now. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:52, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Request For Page Protection

I've requested page protection here: [1]. David O. Johnson (talk) 20:09, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Main cast

Given that the show has opening credits like the 90s cartoon - evoling ones in this case - wouldn't it be better to separate between "Main" and "Recurring" characters? PanagiotisZois (talk) 00:13, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

That's a good idea. HannibalSnow (talk) 18:55, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Second para in lede

It doesn't make sense to me to single out that Ross Marquand plays Xavier, while the rest of the actors aren't referred to by their roles. David O. Johnson (talk) 04:14, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Xavier is mentioned in the lead so we indicate who plays him. It's not required but it is something we tend to do at other articles. - adamstom97 (talk) 08:27, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
