Marvel’s Kevin Feige announced that even once the deal between Disney and Fox will be done it will take years for any Marvel characters from Fox to appear in the MCU.
Could the X-Men finally be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe? CNBC dropped quite the scoop on Monday afternoon, revealing Disney may be gobbling up the majority of 20th Century Fox.
The new report from CNBC reveals 20th Century Fox has been holding talks over selling portions of the company to Disney...
Although X-Men: Apocalypse and the latest Fantastic Four reboot were fairly notable disappointments for 20th Century Fox, the studio is doing pretty, pretty, prett-ay good in the Marvel department. Thanks to the critical and commercial success of Deadpool and Logan, Fox’s X-universe has been revitalized, and even if the next X-Men movie underperforms, they still have New Mutants, X-Force and Deadpool 2 on the way — and it looks as though that may be the tip of the iceberg.
Flame off? After Fantastic Four’s hugely disappointing opening earlier this year, Fox initially claimed they were still moving ahead with a sequel, keeping the planned June 9, 2017 release date. But, after a closer look at the situation and perhaps a good dose of common sense, Fox has removed Fantastic Four 2 from their release schedule.
Yesterday, we learned that 20th Century Fox had worked out a new accord with Marvel permitting the studio to ferry one of its hottest properties into the lucrative land of milk and honey that is television. Fox has announced plans to develop two shows spun off from their X-Men franchise, one about an elite organization of mega-rich mutants called Hellfire and another about David Haller, a.k.a. the son of Charles Xavier, a.k.a. Legion. A new report from Den of Geek (still awaiting confirmation from Marvel) suggests that there may be an unknown flip side to this deal that would place The Fantastic Four, one of Marvel’s most iconic properties, back in their portfolio with another big-screen project to follow.
After getting universally panned by critics, Marvel's Fantastic Four reboot came up short in this weekend's box office, taking in an estimated $26.2 million and coming in second to last week's No. 1, Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation, which took in $29.4 million in its second week in theaters.
