MCU X-Men stuff.

Kee-rist, there hasn't been any movement on this since my post "The Mutants! (?)" three friggin' years ago.

Okay! First, the movie.

They've got a screenwriter. 

Michael Lesslie, who did “The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes” and “Now You See Me 3”.

So, an actual nudge of movement has happened.

Next up: a director, and then actors.

We likely won't see this thing until after "Secret Wars" when the MCU gets rebooted "Crisis On Infinite Earths" style.

Now, where X-Men stands with Disney right now....

X-Men animated is back as "X-Men '97" and picks right up where the 90's one left off.

It's their most popular Marvel related show ever.

People are apeshit over it.

Some speculate animated X-Men will cross into the MCU, and become the new rebooted X-Men; some think at least animated Wolverine will become the one in "Deadpool & Wolverine".

Whichever is the case, or even if neither is the case, Disney/Marvel has seemingly come down on the side of them being called X-Men.

If reboot-X-Men is "The Mutants" after all this, I'd be shocked.

IMHO, it should be "X-Men (subtitle)" like "Spider-Man: Homecoming".
