Sequels X-Men Live-Action TV Show in Development at Fox

I have no interest in legion but hellfire sounds really cool. I hope they go nuts with the 1960s fashion and don't desex the crazy costumes too much.

Can they use Emma and Sebastian again? It's not like they can get bacon and jones in to do it? Maybe this is a really clever way of uniting things so they can bring Sophie turner's Jean eventually and start building up to a proper dark Phoenix story?
 
Kevin Bacon has done TV and he probably would be involved if asked but it sounds like they want a female type villain
 
Ok, there is really something fishy about it...

I mean, Fox be like: "Look, we are making 2 tv shows, airing on our channels, produced by us, connecting to out X-movie universe, and we want them right!!"
Marvel: "Ok, if we co-produce it. And you know what. We will use our sites/media to promote it!"

Doesn't make much sense. I don't think Marvel got only money. I mean, it could've been better for them to make an animated show, merchandising, etc... they would have made hundreds of millions ...

But on ther other hand, it doesn't seem logical to give the FF rights for some tv shows, that could turn out bad and not last 1 season ...

I don't know what to think about this.

I think the best could happen is what Asteroid-Man said:
I think the best move might be to end the X-Men Universe after AOA and Wolverine 3 - they could relaunch the continuity with Marvel (the way Sony did) having X-Men and FF produced by Marvel with Fox putting in the money and making the money.
 
Everyone in one universe is the hopeful dream.

But the Fox X-Men universe is not ending anytime soon. Deadpool, New Mutants, Legion, Hellfire and Gambit are starting. It's just now expanding and signing Directors, writers and actors on board with deals. This isn't the Sony situation, a different deal would apply. If that was ever to happen it would more then likely include their current cast and the two would meet through a plot device.

I see and agree. But the point is, what is Marvel gaining? Why would they just do what they did?
Since the begining of the rumors for a X-Men tv show, I was certain that it won't happen, because I don't see Marvel gaining anything from it ... more like losing.
And, since I have been prove wrong, and it happened, I still don't see what Marvel is gaining ...
 
We don't know yet, but I think most of our bets are on F4. It's of no use to Fox. And It's worth it for Marvel just for the villains with Doom, Kang and Galactus.

And while others will disagree with me, the initial deal for Marvel and Fox was terrible. A new deal was ineveitable sooner or later with or without characters.

Whatever the deal was, hopefully this means the two will have a better relationship.

I have to say the 2 TV projects that are being talked about seem a lot smaller then I expected for a first x-men universe TV series, I'd have expected something like X-factor investigation before anything else

What was that one site who said it was X-Factor awhile back?

This is the most logical, yes.
But I really don't see the movie rights to such famous villains in exchange for 2 tv shows that who knows how they turn out and if they will even last a season.

I guess we have to wait and see how it turns out and what comes out of this deal.

What they're gaining is connecting the X verse to the MCU.

This can't be a coincidence. All these years, all we've heard is the bad blood between Marvel and Fox. Suddenly, Feige's in control of the MCU on film, Ike is out of the picture, and the Creative Committee is disbanded.

All of a sudden, Fox and Marvel agree to co-produce two TV series together in the X-Men universe.

I'm telling you, something's amiss. You combine that with the fact that FANTASTIC FOUR bombed to hell. Something's fishy.

On top of THAT, DAYS OF FUTURE PAST kind of gives a perfect way to connect the MCU to the X-Men universe.

Amen, I hope so!
I won't be suprised if one of those 3 mystery movies in 2020 is a collabration movie between Marvel and Fox (Fantastic Four movie; X-Men movie; AvX movie, etc...)
 
It wont happen, as i said the MCU doesnt have mutants, they have inhumans and marvel wont wanna hurt the integrity of their universe by suddenly retconnin mutants in

They could do a universe cross over story but it would probably only be done once or it could become silly and the idea of mutants somehow movin to the mcu universe could end up silly also

Money. Fox does the work, and Marvel takes a cut. Simple. They certainly aren't "losing" anything.
 
I doubt any sort of X-Men / Avengers team up is on the cards. A reboot would be necessary for it to work, and I can't see Fox doing that

I agree. But there is nothing stopping them doing a spidey type deal with ff etc...

That's a good point indeed.
But ... won't be better for Marvel to make an animated show, aired on some of Disney-owned channels, and then make merchandises out of them and make millions of $ just for them.
For those shows, not that only Marvel are involved, but the shows are on Fox-owned channels, in their universe, no psychical production by Marvel, etc ... What's the point?

:whatever:

There's not one thing in the MCU that says Mutants can't exist. In fact, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 1 revealed that S.H.I.E.L.D. had an entire database full of people with powers that the public didn't know about. Those people weren't Inhumans, as they were unknown until last season. Revealing Mutants wouldn't be any more difficult than Inhumans, Wakanda, or the existence of a talking alcoholic duck.

Totally agree!
Mutants can exist in the MCU, but they aren't that many so people don't know about them. They are something like a secret society.

Only if you reboot x-men can that work, if it's not a reboot which lets face it fox still have plans for the current franchise then you can't get away with that because The world knows mutants exist in the 80s

Yes, that's what I'm talking about. Mutants can easily be rebooted in the MCU. They are not many and they are some kind of a secret society, but solo X-Men film happenes, stuff happenes and now they are known to public.

See the thing about this is you can't count one universe and not another, so when you say something about the MCU which is on its 12th or 13th movie and it's 3rd TV series in continuity that have no mentioned mutants and then you have the fox X-Men universe where mutants are a pretty big deal and somehow you have to integrate those together in a believable way so very late in each of the franchises

It's not just about the MCU, it's also about the fox X-Men universe, are fox gonna give up their current one just so they can be part of the MCU?

There are loads of mutants in the X-Men universe, it's been building up since the 60s and you are convinced fox would reboot just for the MCU?

It would be great if it happened but it's just not very likely, there are way more obstacles in the way then just lets be friends and share

I don't see any reason to think the MCU is going to be involved in any future X-property with Marvel. The only thing this means for the MCU is the potential for the FF to return home back to Marvel.

No, I am convinced that X-Men are Marvel characters and that later (or sooner) they will be back where they belong. Same goes for FF.


And I will get my own movie! And I will be allowed to use the word "mutant" in the MCU boards on the site! :jd: That is .. when X-Men goes back to Marvel.
