In an interview with Variety, Kevin Feige has hinted towards X-Men characters joining the MCU in the near future.
When querying about the Fox-Disney merger and what it means for the MCU Feige told Variety that things are looking “very, very good.”
He elaborated, explaining “We’ve been told it’s looking very, very good and could happen in the first six months of next year,” Feige explained of the heroes. “The notion of the characters coming back is great. It’s nice when a company that created all these characters can have access to all those characters. It’s unusual not to. But in terms of actually thinking about it and actually planning things, we haven’t started that yet.”
The Fox-Disney Merger is expected to be finalised in early January and hopefully, fans will be given what they want in the near future.
