Ben 10,010 Air Date and Episode Synopsis Revealed

The episode description for the first season 5 movie event special of the Ben 10 reboot, Ben 10,010, has been revealed. 

"In a distant future, where Gwen is President of the United States, the earth is under attack by an alien horde. Gwen leads the resistance against the threat. Ben, on the other hand, has been out of touch with his family for a long time. After being persuaded to come out of retirement, the grown-up Ben returns to the past to ask young Ben for help. Only together can they repel an attack that threatens the future."

The synopsis reveals that Gwen is the President of the United States in the future, which may be a callback to what Ben 10,000 said in the Ultimate Alien episode Ben 10,000 Returns, in which he stated that Gwen was the President of the Earth, following him.  

In the reboot, Gwen has been seen holding a presidential campaign in Vote Zombozo.

Similar to the original series, Ben 10,000 is gonna be somewhat bitter and less cheerful compared to his youthful self. Unlike the original, he'll be the one going back in time instead of young Ben going to the future first. Could we perhaps see Ben 10,000 as Clockwork?

Previously, Ben 10,000 and Clockwork has been seen on a mural in Cartoon Network studios, who at the time were assumed to not appear in the reboot and were just drawn for fun. Other interesting characters on the wall included Rex Salazar, Goop, Jetray (who hasn't appeared at the time), Alien X and Vilgax in his true form.

Ben 10,010 is confirmed to air in European countries on February 27, 2021.
