An Avengers Vs X-Men Movie Is In The Works

«X-Men ’97» will debut on Disney+ in 2024 and serve as a continuation of «X-Men: The Animated Series.» However, The Cosmic Circus reports that it might be tied to the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe, with the franchise’s new X-Men reportedly being inspired by the character designs from the series. Elsewhere, there have been internal discussions about a mutant-themed series on Disney+ that will focus on the individual characters before integrating them into a team.

Of course, «Deadpool 3» will probably give us more answers pertaining to the X-Men’s upcoming role in the MCU. That movie will see Ryan Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth team up with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine for a multiversal adventure, one that could theoretically introduce us to X-Men from different timelines. It’s also worth noting that Laura Kinney (Dafne Keen), aka X-23, might be in «Deadpool 3,» potentially opening the door to the character leading a new generation of mutants, which was teased at the end of «Logan.» A standalone X-23 movie has also been discussed in the past, but a project of that ilk could realistically exist alongside a more traditional X-Men franchise.

As it stands, Marvel fans must be patient and see how events unfold in the coming months. But an «Avengers vs. X-Men» film, or any mutant-themed project for that matter, might be the injection of excitement the MCU needs following the mixed responses to some of its recent releases.
