Your Complete Guide To Every Marvel Movie Coming From Fox

When news broke late last year that Disney would be hoovering up 20th Century Fox, it was assumed that this spelled the death-knell for Fox's own corner of the Marvel universe, as the rights for the X-Men and the Fantastic Four would be returning to the Disney-owned Marvel Studios.

New Mutants 2&3

Release Date: Unknown (unlikely to hit before 2020)

Cast and Crew: Josh Boone says that he pitched The New Mutants to Fox as the beginning of a trilogy of linked but distinct movies, so presumably he’d like to write and direct all three. Similarly, the main cast of the first film – Taylor-Joy, Williams, Heaton, etc. – would probably return, too.

Plot: Boone has only hinted at his plans for a second and third movie so far, but has promised the intriguing premise that each of the New Mutants installments will play with the tropes of a different kind of horror movie. The first one, for instance, is effectively a haunted house story. Fans might want to temper their anticipation of these sequels, however. Given that the first film is still undergoing reshoots, it’s unlikely they’ll be out before 2020. Which means they may be for the chop if/when Disney takes over Fox.

But will the House of Mouse simply hit the big ol’ reset button and fold the X-Men universe into the MCU? It’s difficult to tell at present, but if that does happen, at least – going by all these movies in the works – the franchise will go out with a bang.
