Looks like the New Mutants are likely coming to X-Men '97, the animated series:

This is really cool, I hope it comes true. I'd love for the New Mutants to fill up the school as supporting characters ala X-Men Evolution, plus it fits with the timeline of Magneto leading them.
So Sunspot and Magik are being introduced. TAS introduced Cannonball (S5), Karma (S4), Wolfsbane (S3), and Warlock (S5). All we're missing is Moonstar and maybe Cypher, then the roster is pretty much complete. (sorry Magma...)
Huh, I wonder if Jubilee basically joins them or if Generation X will also be introduced later down the line.
Wouldn't Jubilee simply get Kitty Pryde's role as the "senior junior X-men" to the New Mutants?
While X-men TAS used visuals introduced in the early 90's and is heavily associated with that decade, it's otherwise much more reflective of the 70's and 80's comics, characters and stories.
As such it's basicly 10 years lacking behind various parts, including the absence of a first generation junior team, which would mean that if they go that route, the New Mutants either have to be entirely ignored in favor of Generation X or they would have to take the place which said second gen junior team held in the comics at the time.

Mindful of the adaptation of the Demon Bear in the NEW MUTANTS movie, I wonder if making the Bear a more contemporary part of Moonstar's iconography is warranted. The bear as a form of avatar for her power instead of a nemesis figure. Its been toyed with in Hellfire gala fan art and beyond...a Spirit Animal to the Nth degree...
