Have their powers 'blocked' by a psychic, X-men have those. Logic. I am not saying is completely smooth , but if a way to show mutants have been always there, even though I don't think the audiences care that much as long they have wolverine running around with the avengers.
Can we have a black Jean or Black Emma in the MCU. I want this to happen if the deal goes through. Just to shake things up.
Also if MCU xmen/Mutnats are not BORN with the X-gene then they are Mutants/Xmen IN NAME ONLY. No experiment bs, No accident BS, no Alien Nuhuman cocoon BS too and any other forced ways.
I agree with the X-men being already established and I think you can introduce the idea of mutants as a concern that was under the supervision of a particular dept of S.H.I.E.L.D. behind the scenes.
I would like to see the MCU take on the X-men have them addressing some of the earlier villains they faced like Moses Magnum, Count Nefaria & the Ani-Men, Arcade, etc. Magneto should be held for a big introduction, maybe even present him as a larger threat for the greater MCU.
IMO, it feels like a waste to just erase the Fox era... I think that the Liberty Island incident could be fused over into the MCU to show the X-men have been active and around when we see them in the MCU, but I doubt that will happen.
I always stated that with Charles being the most powerful telepath on the planet, and with Cerebro, he could definitely keep the X-men off S.H.I.E.L.D.'s radar or at the very least cover their tracks...

You know, I've been thinking for a while now that if they do recast Tye Sheridan and Sophie Turner, then it would be far more interesting if both Scott and Jean are black in the MCU. With all three of Cyke/Jean/Storm being black, it definitely drives home the X-Men as minority superheroes angle when the three best and brightest poster children of the team are African-American or African.
Emma however is meant to be the deconstruction of the blonde ice queen/HBIC/"wild Jezebel seductress"/Aryan woman with too much power due to her looks, so it makes sense why she'd remain blue eyed and blonde. Unless they go for a Nicki Minaj type deal with blonde wig, blue contacts etc. I'm not totally opposed to the idea.
Its not just the Xmen already being established,its mutants. Mutants already existing in the MCU world all this time is just the lazy way out, and would cause a mutant sized plot hole in the MCU. The MCU has gone too far for something that significant to have happened.
