Just when comic and superhero fans thought they neared the pinnacle of Comic adapted movies it has been revealed that Disney and Fox are finally in negotiations to give their fans what they've been waiting for all along. Disney and Fox studios are in talks to bring return The X-Men to their rightful place in the marvel cinematic universe.
The X-Men are an important staple to the marvel universe, with several members even serving as Avengers over time. With 9 installments the franchise has been a hit and miss provoking a reboot to the franchise in hopes of correcting the inconsistencies and stark contrast from its source material. While the MCU has successfully dominated the superhero movie genre, and as exciting as this news may be, there have been the occasional missteps. Thanks to the separation of the X-Men from the established universe. For example, the retcon of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver from being mutants in Avengers Age of Ultron and the non mention of the mutant Magneto being their father. There's also the issue of Quicksilver dying in the MCU, while simultaneously being introduced to the X-men universe during the 70s as a teenager and returning during the next installment set in the 80s.
The only remedy to this situation is likely to be the introduction of its own version of the multiverse. Previous mistakes aside, hopes remain high that negotiations end well with the X-men joining the MCU, as the next great storyline that can both top the civil war storyline and appropriately incorporate the X-men is the Avengers vs X-Men arc. Which will actually align nicely following the next installment of the X-Men franchise; a much needed redo of the Phoenix saga. However, until the official announcement we will have to wait and see what the ultimate decision will be. Until then we can look forward to Avengers Infinity War which will hit theaters May 4, 2018.
