In July we’re FCBD and probably a one-shot. Gillen’s hinted at a one-shot after Forever ends. So maybe he’s doing Giant Size X-Men? Or maybe two one-shots, a Krakoa Finale and Giant Size to set up the new run.

I thought FCBD was always in May?
“Not as good as I once was… but I’m as good, once, as I ever was.”
This Bleeding Cool article first claims that Gail Simone is rumored to be writing this 'Magik-centered storyline' in the summary, but when reading the actual article it's just idle speculation/wishing by the writer.
Article Summary
Tom Brevoort takes helm of X-Men titles, teasing a "back to basics" shift.
Illyana Rasputin's Magik poised to lead in the upcoming 'Blue Moon' saga.
Brevoort's past X-Men critiques hint at a fresh, possibly contentious approach.
Gail Simone rumored to write for the new Magik-centric X-Men storyline.
So how come we are hearing that Illyana Rasputin is to lead the new X-books that Brevoort is editing? Have we got it completely wrong (always possible) or has Brevoort decided to tackle his own prejudices head on, and go hell for leather for Magik? Is this Tom Brevoort's "one in a blue moon" chance to make such a change? I could see Gail Simone writing the hell out of Illyana, can't you?
Wait isn't Gail Simone to be writing FCBD May? Where did the news of Gillen come from lol
LOL!!! Folk losing their minds over a unsubstantiated BC article needs to check theyselves.
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
Yeah she's writing the Jubilee story in the FCBD issue. I think bigstupidjellyfish is referring to the below from Gillen's most recent newsletter:
"X-MEN STUFF
Immortal X-men ends in December. Rise of the Powers of X starts in January and X-men Forever (which basically continues Immortal X-men) hits in March. I've likely got another issue's worth of X-stuff in the mix, but after that it'll be the end of my time in the X-office and Marvel (at least, for now). Time for new things."

These things are never perfect but there is a good chance some of this article is true.
Bishop66, have you heard any rumors lately?
Fresh twist could be characters resetted to previous versions of themselves. Like what will happen to the Beast but for many using the Krakoan technology.
