The future of the X-Men on the big screen

[Kurolegacy]

Imo, XMen will never join the MCU. I think Disney and/or Feige don’t want them to join. If they did want them to join, they would have did it immediately.

Then I for one am glad that you’re not in charge of incorporating them in. They just acquired the full rights to one of the biggest franchises within their film juggernaut, holding nearly every piece of the MU at their fingertips. They no longer have to skirt around things like the use of the word mutant or even use of certain characters. And if you’re saying that it’s impossible to fit them in, tell that to literally every new IP that came to be added to the MCU even as late as Phase 3, even squeezing Captain Marvel into the universe and saying she’s been there all along.

I can see the X-men joining the MCU (like 90% sure). Bringing in the X-men this late in the game is gonna be trickier than most other franchises but its still doable.

Wish we had more news on our mutants but this article only mentions that Feige is glad they are home, nothing noteworthy though unfortunately.

"We spent 12 years at Marvel Studios really embracing and digging into all the stories of characters who had never been brought to the screen before, but there would be times when we’d have a supporting player or a reference point or something for a movie and legal would go, ‘don’t forget that characters on that other list and you don’t have access to it.' I’m not talking about Professor X or Wolverine, but there are thousands of characters in those brands and we’d shrug and go okay and figure out another solution. It will be nice to not have to do that."

FOX only focused on maybe 15-20 characters in 20 years. X-MEN is a big universe!

Makes sense to me.

I was both really excited about seeing them but my logical side of the brain was like...pump the brakes, they haven't even release that Sansa Stark Fox Men movie yet. lol

I'm ready for the Feige X-Men...but I can wait a few more years for a spectacular intro to the MCU.

Stop bickering please. People can have an opinion.

I think them joining the mcu late is actually a blessing for Disney. If the mcu starts to cool off in popularity or sales after endgame, the xmen will be an ideal franchise to reinvigorate things.

I would say that really only focused on 4 to 5 characters but who's counting lol

I meant as far as appearing in the movie. Guess that doesn't really count as focus though.

yes exactly lolol. (^_^)

I think is not going to happen, we’ll never see the xmen in the mcu. There is no logical way to introduce them in the mcu.
I don’t care that you have a problem with my opinion, but you don’t have to be nasty and insulting.

There’s plenty of ways to introduce them. It’s comic book movies. They don’t have to make logical sense.

It does have to make sense within it's own setting. "Magic A is Magic A" and all that.

At the end of the day, all things considered, I can't wait to see what Feige and all of these awesome directors that Marvel Studios pulls in, can do with the X-Men.

It's like Hickman coming back or something.

I don't see an issue with adding mutants to the MCU the Avengers, FF, Spider-Man, and Dr. Strange all predated the X-Men in the actual Marvel Universe.

In the Marvel Universe for centuries the mutant population was extremely small like only a handful at a time so most lived in the shadows either thinking they were unique or knowing there weren't enough mutants to fight back if persecuted. It wasn't until around the time of the formation of the X-Men that the mutant population blew up and the general public went from thinking mutants were the occasional "freak" to a race and possibly next step in human evolution. I don't see why this wouldn't work for the MCU and I mean heck they could use the snap as a reason saying that some of the people returned had a dormant X-Gene activated by their return.
