The Rotten Tomatoes scores for previous X-Men movies paint a clear picture of the franchise's trajectory under Fox's stewardship, ultimately highlighting the necessity for its conclusion. Movies like Dark Phoenix and The New Mutants received dismal scores, indicative of their failure to resonate with both critics and audiences.

What's Going On With The MCU's X-Men Movie?![]()
The anticipation surrounding the MCU's upcoming X-Men movie is palpable – though the studio has proffered no plot details or casting announcements. However, Marvel Studios has strategically introduced several mutants within the existing MCU, laying the groundwork for the integration of the X-Men into this expansive cinematic universe. Deadpool & Wolverine will likely be the first major project to directly address the X-Men’s place in the MCU, serving as a farewell to Fox’s X-Men franchise and transitioning Deadpool (and perhaps others) into the MCU.
Deadpool & Wolverine could serve as a bridge between the two cinematic universes, satisfying fans' desires for continuity while opening up new storytelling avenues for Marvel. However, Marvel initially indicated that it wouldn't alter its existing plans to accommodate the introduction of X-Men, suggesting that the incorporation of mutants into the MCU might be a gradual process. This implies that X-Men '97 could be the primary outlet for X-Men content in the immediate future.
