Films
The X-Men film series includes twelve superhero films. The first three focus on the conflict between Professor Xavier and Magneto, who have opposing views on humanity's relationship with mutants. While Xavier believes humanity and mutants can coexist, Magneto believes a war is coming, which he intends to fight and win.[17][18]
Bryan Singer directed X-Men was released on July 14, 2000 with the team roster of Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Cyclops (James Marsden), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), Storm (Halle Berry) and Jean Grey (Famke Janssen).[19][20] Singer returned for the sequel X2 released on May 2, 2003 with Iceman (Shawn Ashmore), Rogue (Anna Paquin) and Nightcrawler (Alan Cumming) joining the team. Singer left the franchise to direct Superman Returns and was replaced by Brett Ratner directed X-Men: The Last Stand released on May 26, 2006 with Beast (Kelsey Grammer), an original member of the team joining with Angel (Ben Foster), Shadowcat (Ellen Page) and Colossus (Daniel Cudmore) adding to the roster.[21][22] Critics praised Singer's films for their dark, realistic tone, and their focus on prejudice as a subtext. Although Ratner's film was met with mixed reviews, it out-grossed both of its predecessors.[23]
In 2009, Underworld writer Kevin Grevioux stated that the series' protagonist, Selene, and the series as a whole, was based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name.[24]
Two spin-offs were set before the original three films: X-Men Origins: Wolverine which is an origin story of Wolverine that was directed by Gavin Hood, was released on May 1, 2009,[25] and X-Men: First Class which follows young Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender) with the original Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Havok (Lucas Till) and Banshee (Caleb Landry Jones) as the original team, directed by Matthew Vaughn was released on June 3, 2011.[26] Other movies include a further Wolverine spin-off, The Wolverine, directed by James Mangold, set in Japan, was released on July 26, 2013 and X-Men: Days of Future Past, a sequel to both the original trilogy and X-Men: First Class, with Singer returned to direct, was released on May 23, 2014.[27][28]
The spin-off Deadpool which features Colossus (Andre Tricoteux and voiced by Stefan Kapičić) and his X-Men trainee Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand) was released on February 12, 2016 and a sequel to Days of Future Past titled X-Men: Apocalypse was released on May 27, 2016 with Mystique leading the team with Beast, Quicksilver (Evan Peters), Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Nightcrawler (Kodi Smit-McPhee), Cyclops (Tye Sheridan) and Jean Grey (Sophie Turner).[29][30] A Wolverine sequel titled Logan with Mangold returning was released on March 3, 2017 set in the year 2029.[31] A sequel to Deadpool titled Deadpool 2 with returning X-Men members Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead and features Yukio (Shiori Kutsuna) as a member and Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) as a X-Men trainee while also features cameo appearance of Professor X, Cyclops, Quicksilver, Storm, Nightcrawler and Beast was released on May 18, 2018.[32] Simon Kinberg wrote and directed a sequel to Apocalypse titled Dark Phoenix and was released on June 7, 2019 with the roster from Apocalypse.[33] Another spin-off titled The New Mutants is scheduled for release on August 28, 2020. An adaptation of X-Force was also in development, with Jeff Wadlow writing and Drew Goddard directing X-Force and Josh Boone directed and co-wrote the screenplay with Knate Gwaltney for The New Mutants.[34][35]
Marvel Studios launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2008, focused on the Avengers and their related characters, whose film rights they still owned. Marvel was then bought by Disney in 2009, but could not use the X-Men or their related characters. However, an alternate version of the Nick Fury post-credits scene in Iron Man had him specifically say "As if gamma accidents, radioactive bug bites and assorted mutants weren't enough".[36][37] Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch were an odd case, as they had strong ties with both the Avengers and the X-Men. The studios negotiated a deal so that they could both use their own versions of the characters; the Scarlet Witch would go on to become a semi-regular character, appearing in three subsequent films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[38] On December 14, 2017, Disney announced its intent to acquire 21st Century Fox's film and television studios, including the film rights to the X-Men franchise.[39] Disney CEO Bob Iger later confirmed that the X-Men would be integrated into the MCU alongside the Fantastic Four and Deadpool stating "We're also looking forward to expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe to include X-Men, Fantastic Four and Deadpool".[40][41] On July 20, 2019 during the San Diego Comic Con, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige announced that a film centered on mutants, which will be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is in development.[42] When asked if the film will be X-Men-titled, Feige said that the terms "X-Men" and "mutant" are interchangeable, and said that the MCU's take on the franchise will differ from 20th Century Fox's.[43]
