What Happened To What If’s Lost Gamora Episode?

I was confused, like many Marvel fans were, after watching yesterday's What If…? finale. All the promo images featured Gamora wearing Thanos armor, and she was a pretty big part of the pre-launch marketing for the series alongside Captain Carter and T'Challa Star Lord. And yet, this was not her episode, this was a big crossover event as different characters from different universes teamed up to fight Infinity Stone Ultron and save the multiverse. This included Gamora, who was plucked by the Watcher from her universe alongside Tony Stark wearing huge Iron Man armor, but it's clear something was weird here. Who was this Gamora and Tony? Did we skip an episode somewhere? We did, in fact, skip an episode. There were supposed to be 10 episodes of What If…? this season, including an episode that starred this version of Gamora and Tony Stark. But because of, you guessed it, COVID problems, this episode will not air until season 2 of What If…? arrives (which has already been greenlit). Polygon spoke to creator AC Bradley about what happened here, who confirmed the COVID issues with production. "Given the global tragedy of the pandemic, pushing an episode is nothing," she said.
