Let me just say right now if they have *any* intention *whatsoever* to tackle the Phoenix storyline again, then it MUST be a series because you simply cannot do that story and expect the same literary and emotional payoff with characters you’ve only known for a single movie or even just three movies.
We’ve seen it royally screwed up twice already. If TPTB are going to try it again, let’s hope they’re smart enough realize the above.
There are so many ways to introduce mutants. This is 20/20, but The Snap or Blip was the perfect time for mutants to just “show up”.
If you consider the multiverses, the MCU could introduce mutant characters from the Fox days as new scenes with the current actors in new scenes or as flashback like sequences using old footage. The beauty is that since no universe is exactly the same, that in the end they can have new actors play mutants and explain it that way.
I’d like to see them do a TV series that introduces mutant characters in an episodic way and then have it end or lead to a movie event.
I was a huge Xmen fan from my childhood in the 80s and 90s. They and spider man were the rock stars of the marvel comics. With the new phase in the mcu they could certainly use a good xmen storyline. I truly think they need it to keep the mcu relevant and interesting. Too many changes have made the mcu kind of bland after endgame. I believe they should bring hugh jackman in as old man logan and introduce a younger wolverine after that. Perhaps his daughter from Logan. There are ways you can have hugh jackman at the same time someone else.
