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.

Multiple Man

Recommended Videos

Release Date: Unknown (2019/2020?)

Cast and Crew: James Franco has signed up to play Jamie Madrox, the mutant who can create copies of himself – the character was previously played by Eric Dane in X-Men: The Last Stand. Franco will produce alongside Simon Kinberg, while Wonder Woman‘s Allan Heinberg is set to provide the script.

Plot: Franco’s Multiple Man movie will most likely derive from Peter David’s X-Factor and Madrox comics, in which Jamie Madrox ditches his X-Men code name and starts his own private investigation agency, known as X-Factor Investigations. Following on from Fox’s other X-Men spinoffs that mash superhero movie tropes with another genre – e.g. the Western-infused Logan – this will probably be a Marvel neo-noir detective drama.

Kitty Pryde

Release Date: Unknown (2019/2020?)

Cast and Crew: Deadpool‘s Tim Miller is sticking with the X-Men franchise as he’s set to helm this solo movie for Kitty Pryde. What’s more, Marvel comics legend Brian Michael Bendis has signed on to write the script. It’s too early to say who will star in the pic, but Ellen Page – who played the role in both The Last Stand and Days of Future Past – has said she would love to do more with the fan favorite.

Plot: Seeing as Kitty is a hugely beloved character, she’s had a long and storied history in the comics – so it’s difficult to say exactly what storyline Miller and Bendis will be most inspired by. Kitty has traditionally worked best as part of the X-Men team as well, which means we’re unsure just how she’s going to lead her own movie. We’re not even certain if it will feature her dragon sidekick Lockheed, as that character is set to appear in The New Mutants.
