What if…? In the trailer for Season 3, however, a beloved Eternals hero made a surprise appearance.
One of the episodes from Marvel’s last series What If…?, in 2024 would net them a major Eternals costumed character who has not appeared in the MCU in many, many years.
Characters that have appeared in previous MCU entries are presumably going to figure heavily into What If…? ’s final and third season, and the trailer revealed some surprising newcomers.
Among the anticipated returns are Mysterio, the villain from Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Paul Bettany’s return as White Vision after his character was last seen in the Disney Plus series WandaVision. Furthermore, it has been announced that Storm, a famous X-Men character, will make a historic appearance in What If…? Season 3.

What If Season 3: Which Eternals Character Is Returning?
The season 3 trailer also indicates that some version of the Eternals’ “What If” Kingo will appear in the animated series’ final season.
At the 0:32 mark of the clip, Kingo (Kumail Nanjiani) can be seen appearing in the background as Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) shouts, “It’s showtime:

Kingo’s Role in What If Season 3
The part Kingo plays in What If…? Although the details of Season 3 are yet unknown, the trailer indicates that he will make an appearance in an episode that focuses mostly on Agatha Harkness and heavily features Arishem.
Because of her capacity to absorb powers, Agatha is terrible news for the other Eternals. In this episode, she may have been able to accomplish this for most of the squad, except for Kingo, which explains why he seems to be the only Eternal still alive.
It’s possible that Kingo decided to serve Agatha because he knew she was too strong for him, particularly after she used up the majority of the Eternals’ abilities to become a formidable cosmic entity.
Kingo may have decided to enlist Arishem’s help to fight Agatha since he has eventually grown weary of her persistent haughtiness.
However, what about the scenario in which Kingo seems to call forth the Uni-mind? He might eventually learn that other Eternals—possibly Druig and Sprite—are still alive and that they have joined forces to create the Uni-mind as a last-ditch effort to vanquish Agatha.
What if…? Disney+ will launch Season 3 on Sunday, December 22.
