X-Men ’97’s Cyclops Actor Addresses ‘Carrying the Torch’ in Norm Spencer’s Name

X-Men ’97 star Ray Chase discussed continuing the legacy of the late Norm Spencer as the voice of Cyclops in the upcoming Disney+ animated series.Chase delved into this topic in a post on X, commenting, “From all the research I could gather from interviews, Norm Spencer was an amazing, humble, deeply funny guy. I’m saddened he couldn’t be a part of this amazing continuation, but I am honored to carry the torch in his name. Thank you [head writer Beau DeMayo] and Meredith Layne for trusting me.” Fittingly, Chase’s post included a picture of Cyclops from the recently released trailer for X-Men ’97, which also includes Gambit, Rogue, and parts of Wolverine and Storm.DeMayo also talked about how Magneto taking over as leader of the X-Men tied into the battle between Children of the Atom and mutant bigotry, remarking that when he first came to this, he thought about the world of the ’90s, calling it “so much more simplistic than it is today.” He added, “[The X-Men] spent years telling humanity to embrace the future, walk into the future together. What happens when they get hit with a future they didn’t see coming? What does it feel like to be on the other end when you feel like that future is leaving you behind?”
