I don't think Disney is going to touch the phoenix. Which is a shame because they could have done it right.

After Fox has done it twice, there's no way Disney will do it again but the bright side is, then that means Jean stays around in the MCU much longer than she would have if they were to adapt the DPS.
Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”

I mean, they're not wrong. This has been the case for a long time. They had to nerf Nate Grey on at least two occasions. Ditto for Haller. They're both psuedo reality warpers. If I'm not mistaken, they once said Nate at full power could fight a fully powered Phoenix. You shouldn't want Jean on that level, because no one ever stays there. Either they get nerfed or written out, sometimes both.
By 2028, After 3 succesful MCU X-Men movies and 2 crossover movies the audience will have completely forgotten there were FOX movies before (of course it's a joke, but the audience is quite like that) and by the 5th movie they will be doing their phoenix arc just right and despite the changes to the story, we will feel that they kept the essence of the story!
do you guys think her role in age of x-men will be good?
