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.

The New Mutants

Release Date: February 22nd, 2019

Cast and Crew: Writer/director Josh Boone (Fault in our Stars) is helming the film, which stars a cast of some of the biggest upcoming young actors around – including Anya Taylor-Joy (Split), Maisie Williams (Game of Thrones), Charlie Heaton (Stranger Things), Henry Zaga (Teen Wolf) and Blu Hunt (The Originals).

Plot: Drawing inspiration from the classic “Demon Bear” arc from the comics, The New Mutants follows five teenage mutants – Magik, Wolfsbane, Cannonball, Sunspot and Mirage – as they’re attacked by an evil entity while institutionalized in a psychiatric asylum.

Due to the success of the horror-themed teaser trailer, The New Mutants is currently undergoing extensive reshoots in order to make it “more frightening.” An unknown new character is also being added.

Gambit

Release Date: June 7th, 2019

Cast and Crew: Channing Tatum has been attached to play the Ragin’ Cajun, taking over from X-Men Origins: Wolverine‘s Taylor Kitsch, since 2014. In that time, three directors have boarded, and then departed, the project – namely, Rupert Wyatt, Doug Liman and Gore Verbinksi. Lea Seydoux was also set to play Gambit’s love interest Bella Donna Bordreaux, but the current word is that Lizzy Caplan has eyes on the role.

Plot: Initially, Gambit was set to fill a Valentine’s Day slot, similar to Deadpool, but was pushed back by four months when Fox decided to rethink the direction they wanted the movie to go in. The latest report claims that Gambit will have a “heavily comedic tone” and employ the structure of a heist pic. It looks like the lighter-hearted efforts of the MCU will be a big influence here, then, as it’s being described as a “summer Marvel movie.”
