Following the release of ‘X-Men ’97’ a promotion related to the show was posted by Marvel Studios on social media prompting fans to call Jubilee’s phone number after which a cryptic message would play.
Fans who dial Jubilee’s phone number, 914-361-5397, will hear a pre-recorded message from the hero, inviting them to hang out at the X-Mansion in May. Jubilee rushes off, implying she’s heading for another mission. Marvel Studios provided no further context, leaving the interpretation of Jubilee’s message open to speculation.
Then it was revealed that Airbnb has introduced an X-Men-Themed house in Westchester County, NY, resembling the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning from X-Men ’97. It features rooms like Beast’s lab, the War Room with Cerebro, and the Danger Room. The house accommodates eight guests with four bedrooms, five beds, and 2.5 bathrooms. Reservations are open until May 13.
It’s likely that mansion and the reservations will be connected to the finale of the show in some way since it corresponds to the release date of the final episode.
You can check out the video of the X-Mansion below.
The video of the house looks a bit “AI generated” due to the unique color palette and the fact that the house was modeled to look like the 2D world.
Airbnb’s X-Mansion experience offers visitors the chance to:
- Train in The War Room
- Try on Cerebro’s helmet
- Experiment in Beast’s lab
- Recreate Wolverine’s iconic meme
- Receive a diploma from Professor X’s study
To recreate the ambiance of X-Men 97’s mansion, Airbnb collaborated with Microsoft to repurpose old operating systems for working boomboxes. Every prop and room in the house was painstakingly hand-painted to resemble the 2D animated world, with each prop taking about an hour to paint.
