Fans have been waiting for a few years now for the X-Men to join the MCU! The mutant superheroes have not been on screen in live action since 2019′s Dark Phoenix, prior to Disney’s acquisition of Fox properties.

Now, fans are convinced that we could be getting an answer in an upcoming title, and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige is teasing when we could see the X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Keep reading to find out more… “The X-Men are as solid and as rich and as a great a concept in characters as exist,” he told Entertainment Tonight. “There’s the return of the animated series [X-Men '97] next year, which we’re very excited about.

I saw some new final episodes today, which really bring you back to that core of who the X-Men are and that soap opera that those characters represent.” “And then in live-action, people will see,” Kevin added. “Perhaps soon.” This “soon” could be as soon as THIS Friday (November 10) when The Marvels premieres in theaters!

In an ad for the upcoming movie, fans noticed that the “X” in “Comes Next” that shows on the screen stays for longer than the rest of the words, before fading away.
