After each film outgrossed its predecessor, a further ten films were released set in the same cinematic universe, with spin-offs including three Wolverine films (2009–2017), two Deadpool films (2016–2018), and two television series titled Legion (2017–2019) and The Gifted (2017–2019). The 2011 prequel X-Men: First Class acted as a soft reboot of the original franchise followed by its 2014 sequel X-Men: Days of Future Past establishing a new fictional timeline focusing on younger iterations of existing characters, continued into a full tetralogy by X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) and Dark Phoenix (2019). The stand-alone New Mutants concluded the series in 2020 after a 20-year-long run.

The X-Men film series has been well received by several critics during its run, with X-Men: Days of Future Past and Logan being their most acclaimed films and with both being considered to be two of the greatest superhero films ever made. With thirteen films released, the X-Men film series is the ninth-highest-grossing film series, having grossed over $6 billion worldwide.

In March 2019, Marvel Studios regained the film rights to the X-Men, along with the Fantastic Four and Deadpool, after Disney acquired Fox for $71.3 billion; they are planned to be integrated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). In October 2020, the films in the X-Men series, along with the Fantastic Four films, were rebranded as "Marvel Legacy films" on Disney+.[1] Patrick Stewart later reprised his role as Charles Xavier / Professor X from the series in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022).[2] Deadpool 3 (2024), a sequel to the X-Men film Deadpool 2 (2018), will integrate the series' iterations of Wade Wilson / Deadpool and Wolverine into the continuity of the MCU, respectively reprised by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.[3] A new film featuring the team, which will reboot the franchise for the MCU, entered the early stages of development in September 2023.[4]

Disney+ further updated branding of the X-Men series (alongside the live-action TV shows and animated series) in July 2023, giving it the title "Mutant Legacy", whilst the Fantastic Four films were retitled "Fantastic Adventures".[5]

X-Men (2000) edit

Main article: X-Men (film)

The film introduces Logan and Rogue into the conflict between Professor Xavier's X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants, led by Magneto. Magneto intends to mutate world leaders at a United Nations summit with a machine he has built to bring about acceptance of mutantkind, but he was not aware that this forced mutation will result only in their deaths.

In 1994, 20th Century Fox and producer Lauren Shuler Donner bought the film rights to the X-Men.[6] Andrew Kevin Walker was hired to write, and James Cameron expressed interest in producing.[7] Eventually, Bryan Singer signed on to direct in July 1996. Although he was not a comic book fan, Singer was fascinated by the analogies of prejudice and discrimination that X-Men offered.[6] John Logan, Joss Whedon, Ed Solomon, Christopher McQuarrie, and David Hayter wrote the script, with Hayter receiving sole credit.[6][8] Principal photography began in September 1999 in Toronto, Canada, and ended in March 2000.[9] The film was released on July 14, 2000.[10]

Stryker attacks the X-Mansion and brainwashes Xavier into locating every mutant on the planet to kill them. The X-Men must team up with the Brotherhood to prevent Stryker's worldwide genocide.

Hayter and Zak Penn were hired to write their own scripts for the sequel, which Singer would pick, with an aim to release the film in December 2002.[11][12] Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris were hired to re-write the script in February 2002, writing around 26 drafts and 150 on set.[13] Principal photography began in June 2002 in Vancouver, Canada, and ended in November 2002.

Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men story "Gifted", featuring a mutant cure, was suggested for the primary story. Matthew Vaughn came on board as director in February 2005[14] but left due to the rushed production schedule.[15] Brett Ratner was later hired as director in June.[16] Principal photography began in August 2005 in Vancouver, Canada, and ended in January 2006.[17] The film was released on May 26, 2006.[18]

In May 2000, Marvel Studios attempted to produce a Deadpool film as part of a distribution deal with Artisan Entertainment.[74] However, by 2004, Marvel was developing the film with New Line Cinema. David S. Goyer was set to write and direct and courted actor Ryan Reynolds for the lead role, but lost interest within months in favor of other projects.[75][76][77] 20th Century Fox acquired Deadpool the following year after New Line Cinema placed it in turnaround and was considering the spin-off in the development of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, with Reynolds being cast for the role.[75] After the opening weekend success of X-Men Origins: Wolverine in May 2009, Fox lent Deadpool out to writers with Donner acting as a producer.[78] Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick were hired to write the script in January 2010.[79] Robert Rodriguez was sent a draft of the screenplay the following June but did not pursue it, and Adam Berg emerged as a top contender to direct.[80][81] In April 2011, visual effects specialist Tim Miller was hired to direct.[82] Principal photography began in March 2015 in Vancouver, Canada, and ended in May.[83][84] The film was released on February 12, 2016.[85]

Legion (2017–2019) edit

Main article: Legion (TV series)

After completing work on the first season of Fargo at FX in 2014, Noah Hawley was presented with the opportunity to develop the first live-action television series based on the X-Men comics, of which he was a fan when growing up.[98] Hawley was initially pitched two different ideas for the potential series,[99] including an adaptation of the comics' Hellfire Club, but the ideas did not interest Hawley. Instead, he worked with X-Men film series writer and producer Simon Kinberg to reverse-engineer an idea for the series, set in alternate continuity to that of the film series. After discussing an "interesting show in this genre ... that isn't being done", the two settled on the character of David Haller / Legion. Hawley found the character interesting because of his mental illness, and for the potential of the series to depict his unique mindset.[98] He pitched the series as "a deconstruction of a villain ... and a love story".[99]

In October 2015, FX ordered a pilot for Legion, with Marvel Television and FX Productions producing; FX Productions would handle the physical production. Hawley was set to write the pilot, and executive produce the series alongside X-Men film producers Lauren Shuler Donner, Bryan Singer, and Kinberg, Marvel Television executives Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory, and Hawley's Fargo collaborator John Cameron.[100] Steve Blackman, Alan Fine, Stan Lee, Joe Quesada, and Karim Zreik also executive produce.[101] Hawley's initial script for the series was described as "less fractured", "cohesive [and] much more regular." However, he quickly reconceived the series "and decided more Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Terrence Malick, more whimsy, more impressionistic and went in that direction."[99] By January 2016, FX President John Landgraf was confident that the series would be picked up by the network, saying that "the vast majority of things that we pilot do go forward to series" and "the scripts [for Legion] are extraordinary."[102] That May, FX ordered an eight-episode first season of Legion,[103] starring Dan Stevens as the title character, alongside Rachel Keller, Aubrey Plaza, Jean Smart, Jeremie Harris, Amber Midthunder, Katie Aselton, Bill Irwin, Jemaine Clement, and Hamish Linklater,[103][104] with Navid Negahban and Lauren Tsai respectively joining the cast in the second and third seasons.[105][106]

In January 2016, Landgraf stated that the series would be set in a universe parallel to the X-Men films where "the US government is in the early days of being aware that something called mutants exist but the public is not". He felt it was unlikely that characters would cross over between the show and films, but noted that this could change between then and the premiere of the series.[102] In August, Singer confirmed that Legion had actually been designed to fit into the X-Men film series universe, but also to stand alone, so "you wouldn't have to label" the relationship between the series and the films. He teased plans to have the series "relate to future X-Men movies".[107] At New York Comic Con 2016, Donner said that the series is "far from the X-Men movies, but still "lives in that universe." The only way for X-Men to keep moving forward is to be original and to surprise. And this is a surprise. It is very, very different." Hawley explained that because the series is depicting the title character's "subjective reality", it would not have to address any connections to the films straight away, noting that Fargo, which is connected to the 1996 film of the same name, at first "had to stand on its own feet" before exploring its explicit continuity connections more; "We have to earn the right to be part of this universe. My hope is we create something so strong that the people in the movie studio call and say they would be foolish enough not to connect these things." He did state that "you can't tell this story without" acknowledging that Legion is the son of the same incarnation of Charles Xavier who appears in the films (portrayed by Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy).[108]

Donner stated in January 2017 that having Hawley focus on Haller's perspective of reality rather than connections to the X-Men films allowed the series to avoid the convoluted continuity of the films, "because we play with so many different timelines, and we rebooted and not really rebooted and all that" throughout the films. Therefore, "the cinematic universe will not worry about Legion."[99] For the onscreen confirmation that Xavier is Haller's father in "Chapter 7", with Xavier's signature wheelchair shown in a brief flashback, the series' production was able to choose from any of the variant wheelchairs used throughout the film series. They settled on the version from X-Men: Apocalypse, with the prop used in that film being brought out of storage for the show.[109][110] In March 2017, Patrick Stewart was approached about reprising his role as Xavier from the film series in the series' third season, saying he was "Absolutely 100%" willing to reprise the role;[111] while having Stewart return as a present-day Xavier had been "seriously considered" by showrunner Noah Hawley, he elected the older character's presence to be unnecessary upon deciding to have the season revolve around time travel, and, after finding James McAvoy to be unavailable for filming, cast Harry Lloyd as a young Xavier.[112]

The Gifted (2017–2019) edit

Main article: The Gifted (American TV series)

In July 2016, after a series based on the Hellfire Club, an X-Men comic property, did not move forward at Fox, the network made a put pilot commitment for a different X-Men based series. The new pilot, written by Matt Nix, was for an action-adventure series based on ordinary parents discovering their children's mutant abilities. Fox Entertainment President David Madden said that "developing a Marvel property has been a top priority for the network—and we are so pleased with how Matt Nix has led us into this thrilling universe." The series is produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Marvel Television, with 20th handling the physical production of the series, and Nix executive producing alongside X-Men film series producers Bryan Singer, Lauren Shuler Donner, and Simon Kinberg, and Marvel Television executives Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory.[113][114] Nix pitched the series to executives as "Running on Empty with mutants".[115] He created an elaborate presentation using Prezi which included photos of preferred actors that he had altered to look like mutants, and graphics to explain how the series would fit in with the continuity of the X-Men films.[116] On May 9, Fox ordered the show to series as The Gifted. The pilot had been called "one of the hottest pilots of the [2017] broadcast development season" by commentators.[117] The first season consists of 13 episodes.[118] In August, Len Wiseman joined as a director and executive producer for the season.[119] That October, Nix said that he had planned "a couple of seasons, in broad strokes", and stated that he wanted "to be doing this show for a long time." Noting a growing trend in shorter, self-contained television seasons, Nix said that he wanted the show to feel more like a traditional, long-running story and so have each season end in a satisfying way that does not feel "close-ended".[115]

On January 4, 2018, the series was renewed for a 16-episode second season.[120][121] Described as being designed for "limited runs", Fox had not been in a hurry to give the series an early renewal before then.[120] On April 17, 2019, it was announced that the series had been cancelled by Fox.[122] In February 2017, Jamie Chung was cast as a younger incarnation of Clarice Fong, an original Asian incarnation of the Marvel Comics character Blink previously introduced in the 2014 X-Men film X-Men: Days of Future Past, portrayed by Fan Bingbing.[123][124] Chung was then joined by Stephen Moyer, Sean Teale, Natalie Alyn Lind, Amy Acker, Percy Hynes White, Coby Bell, and Emma Dumont as Lorna Dane / Polaris, the daughter of the incarnation of Magneto portrayed by Ian McKellen and Michael Fassbender.[125][126][127][128][129]

Timeline edit

The events of the films are separated into two "timelines"; the original timeline and the new timeline.[130][131] The setting of Logan was initially implied by Hugh Jackman to be set in an alternate timeline and not following the prequel films, before director James Mangold stated that it was related;[132][133] Marvel later officially classified the film as a separate universe from the film series in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z. Within the Marvel multiverse, the original timeline was officially designated as Earth-10005, the events of Deadpool 2 as Earth-41633, the events of Logan as Earth-17315, while the new timeline, consisting of the prequel films, Deadpool and The New Mutants remains undesignated.[134]

The first three X-Men films and Deadpool set opening records in North America: X-Men had the highest July opening yet,[165] while X2 and X-Men: The Last Stand earned the fourth-highest opening weekends yet and Deadpool got the largest opening weekend in February.[166][167][168] The records for the first three films have since been surpassed. The next three X-Men films after X-Men: The Last Stand opened lower than their predecessor and didn't set opening records.[169] In North America, Deadpool is the highest-grossing film in the series, and it also has the highest opening weekend.[170][168] Outside North America, X-Men: Days of Future Past has the highest opening weekend and is the highest-grossing film in the series.[170] Worldwide, Deadpool was the highest-grossing film in the series and the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time, before being surpassed on both records by its sequel.[171]

The X-Men film series is the second highest-grossing film series based on Marvel Comics characters after the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).[172] In North America, it is the fifth-highest-grossing film series, having earned over $2.4 billion.[173] Worldwide, it is the ninth-highest-grossing film series of all time, having grossed over $6 billion.[170]

Critical response edit

Wesley Morris of The Boston Globe praised the first three X-Men films as "more than a cash-guzzling wham-bang Hollywood franchise ... these three movies sport philosophy, ideas, a telethon-load of causes, and a highly elastic us-versus-them allegory". Morris praised X-Men: The Last Stand for "put[ting] the heroes of a mighty summer blockbuster in a rare mortal position. Realism at this time of year? How unorthodox!"[177] Roger Ebert gave the films mostly positive reviews but criticized them for the amount of mutants, stating "their powers are so various and ill-matched that it's hard to keep them all on the same canvas".[178]

The first two films were highly praised due to their cerebral tone. However, when director Bryan Singer left the series, many criticized his successor, Brett Ratner. Colin Colvert of the Star Tribune felt "Singer's sensitivity to [the discrimination themes] made the first two X-Men films surprisingly resonant and soulful for comic-based summer extravaganzas ... Singer is adept at juggling large casts of three-dimensional characters, Ratner makes shallow, unimaginative bang-ups."[179] James Berardinelli felt, "X-Men: The Last Stand isn't as taut or satisfying as X-Men 2, but it's better constructed and better paced than the original X-Men. The differences in quality between the three are minor, however; despite the change in directors, there seems to be a single vision."[180] David Denby of The New Yorker praised "the liquid beauty and the poetic fantasy of Singer's work", but called Ratner's film "a crude synthesizer of comedy and action tropes".[181] Singer's third film in the series, X-Men: Days of Future Past, was also well received. Alonso Duralde of The Wrap felt that "Singer keeps things moving along briskly enough that you can just go along with the ride of Superhero Stuff without getting bogged down".[182] Spider-Man director Sam Raimi said he was a fan of the series, particularly Singer's films.[183] Film historian Kim Newman also tonally compared Batman Begins to Singer's films.[184] Logan was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.[185]

There was criticism of the large casts and the limited screen time available for all of them. Richard George of IGN reacted well to the depictions of Wolverine, Professor X, Magneto, Jean Grey, Storm, William Stryker, Mystique, Beast and Nightcrawler; however, George thought many of the younger X-Men characters, such as Rogue, Iceman, Pyro, Angel and Kitty Pryde were "adjectiveless teenagers", and was disappointed by Cyclops' characterization. He observed the filmmakers were "big fans of silent henchmen", due to the small roles of the various villainous mutants; such as Lady Deathstrike and Psylocke.[186] Jesse Schedeen of IGN stated that the continuity of the films does not make sense with dead characters returning with zero or little explanation, different versions of the same character appearing across multiple films, and plot points that are conveniently ignored in later films. He also criticized 20th Century Fox for not mapping out the series from the beginning.[187] In his review of Dark Phoenix, Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal characterized the entire X-Men film series as being a "notoriously erratic franchise".[188]

Legacy edit

Richard George of IGN stated that the success of the first X-Men film paved the way for comic-book film adaptations such as the Spider-Man series, Fantastic Four (2005), V for Vendetta and Singer's Superman Returns.[186] Chris Hewitt of Empire magazine called the first X-Men film as the "catalyst" for films based on Marvel Comics characters, stating "Singer's 2000 film is the catalyst for everything that's come since, good and bad. Without it, there's no Marvel Studios."[231] Comic-book writer Mark Millar said that Singer's X-Men "revolutionized" superhero films.[232]

Rebecca Rubin of Variety magazine stated that the X-Men franchise has proven there is an audience for a hardline superhero film, while Jeff Bock of Exhibitor Relations said that with films like the Deadpool films and Logan, the studios can do more with an R-rated film and give the audience something new.[233] However, Tim Grierson and Will Leitch of New York magazine's Vulture criticized the series, noting that the best films of the series failed to capture the zeitgeist the way Marvel Cinematic Universe films did.[234]

Canceled or reworked projects edit

Main article: List of unproduced 20th Century Fox projects based on Marvel Comics
See also: List of unproduced X-Men film series projects

In March 2019, The Walt Disney Company acquired the film and television rights for the X-Men after the acquisition deal of 21st Century Fox was completed.[249] The films in development under 20th Century Fox were placed "on hold"[250] and eventually canceled by Disney. Any future X-Men projects will be produced by Marvel Studios, and the characters will be integrated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[251][252] Future films based on the X-Men franchise planned by Fox before the acquisition included:

  • X4 and X5: In 2009, Lauren Shuler Donner pitched Bryan Singer on doing a sequel of the X-Men original trilogy.[253] In March 2011, Shuler Donner revealed that sequels to X-Men: The Last Stand were in "active development at Fox," saying, "we took the treatment to Fox and they love it ... and X4 leads into X5".[254]
  • Untitled Fox–Marvel crossover film: In 2010, Zack Stentz and Ashley Edward Miller were to co-write an ensemble film featuring every Marvel Comics property whose film rights were owned by 20th Century Fox: The X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Daredevil and Deadpool. The plot revolved around a superhero registration act, pitting various characters on opposite sides of the conflict similar to the Civil War story arc. Paul Greengrass had been approached to serve as director, though scheduling conflicts placed the project indefinitely on hold.[255] Warren Ellis worked separately on another draft of the script.[256] Greengrass later stated that he was never contractually signed on to work on the project and that "in the end, nothing happened".[257]
  • X-Force: In July 2013, Jeff Wadlow was hired to write and potentially direct a film adaptation of the X-Men spin-off comic-book series X-Force.[258] Mark Millar, the creative consultant for 20th Century Fox's Marvel Comics based films at the time, stated that the film would feature five characters as protagonists.[259] After the release of Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds stated that Deadpool would appear in the film.[260] By May 2016, Simon Kinberg was in the process of rewriting the script.[261] In February 2017, Joe Carnahan had signed on as director, as well as a co-writer with Reynolds.[262] By September of the same year, Drew Goddard was attached to write and direct. Rhett Reese said the film could be described as an R-rated take on the X-Men.[263] Kinberg, Reynolds and Donner were later slated to serve as producers for the film.[264] In September 2018, Kinberg said that Goddard would begin work on the script after the release of Bad Times at the El Royale.[265]
  • Gambit: In October 2014, Josh Zetumer was hired to write the screenplay for a film about the character Gambit, based on the treatment by comic-book writer Chris Claremont. In June 2015, Rupert Wyatt was then hired to direct but left in September due to schedule conflicts.[266] In November, Doug Liman was in final negotiations to direct the film.[267] Liman left the film in August 2016, to direct Justice League Dark.[268] By October, Gore Verbinski had signed on as director, while Zetumer continued to work on the script.[269] In January 2018, Verbinski departed the film due to scheduling issues.[270] Kinberg stated that the film was intended to be the start of multiple installments focusing on Gambit, and that the final script had been completed by May 2018.[271][272][273] By January 2019, Tatum was in early negotiations to direct the film. Tatum later revealed that he was hired to co-direct with Reid Carolin.[274][275] By March, Kinberg was revealed to be co-screenwriter.[276] The film was set to star Channing Tatum in the lead role with Donner, Kinberg, Tatum and Carolin attached as producers.[277] In May 2019, the film was removed from 20th Century Fox's official release schedule.[278] Tatum later revealed that the movie was delayed at various times, because the studio was pushing for an established filmmaker, and did not seem to have faith in he and Carolin's direction.[274] Gambit had been a few months away from principal photography before it was cancelled by The Walt Disney Company. The co-directors later described the plot as "Goodfellas in New Orleans", similar in style to Deadpool, with elements of a romantic comedy.[279][274][280]
  • Untitled The New Mutants sequels: In December 2016, Boone stated that he had pitched the New Mutants-centered trilogy of films to 20th Century Fox with intentions for each film to build upon the last, as well as the X-Men film franchise as whole. In October 2017, he confirmed that the sequels had been greenlit by the studio. The first sequel was intended to introduce new characters joining the team,[281] while each installment was planned to explore a different style within the horror genre.[282] The sequel would have included the team traveling to Brazil to defeat the Hellfire Club, including Sunspot's villainous father Emmanuel da Costa; Antonio Banderas was cast in the role. The sub-genre was intended to be an alien horror film introducing Warlock and Xi'an Coy Manh / Karma to the team, with the plot involving an invasion story device.[283] Sacha Baron Cohen had entered early negotiations to portray Warlock.[284] A third film would've culminated the planned trilogy centered around the New Mutants characters. The story of the third entry was revealed to be an adaptation of the "Inferno" comic book story-arc, centering around Illyana Rasputin / Magik and her alternate reality persona as Darkchilde, in a supernatural-satanic horror film. The plot was intended to have involved a crossover element with the mainline X-Men movies.[283][285]
  • Alpha Flight and Exiles: In February 2017, Kinberg stated that Alpha Flight and the Exiles were characters being developed by the studio, for film adaptation.[286][287]
  • Laura: In February 2017, James Mangold stated that with the introduction of Laura Kinney / X-23 in Logan, there was a possibility that the character would appear in future films.[288] Later that month, Kinberg said that a film centered around the character was in development.[286][287] By October of the same year, Mangold and X-23 co-creator Craig Kyle had signed onto the project, now titled Laura, as co-screenwriters.[289]
  • Multiple Man: In November 2017, a film centering around Jamie Madrox / Multiple Man was in development with James Franco starring in the lead role. Allan Heinberg was attached as screenwriter, with Kinberg and Franco as producers.[290]
  • Kitty Pryde: In January 2018, Tim Miller was announced to be directing a film centered around Kitty Pryde.[291] In February 2018, Brian Michael Bendis was hired to write the script.[292]
  • Fox's Deadpool 3: In November 2016, plans began for a third Deadpool film.[96] Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick stated the film would enter production after X-Force was completed,[293] with Ryan Reynolds and Morena Baccarin scheduled to reprise their roles. Production was planned to take place in Atlanta, Georgia.[294] Reynolds later revealed that the original plan for the plot, under 20th Century Fox's development, was written as a road trip film with Wade Wilson / Deadpool and James "Logan" Howlett / Wolverine. In his announcement, the actor implied that Jackman would have returned for the project.[295][296] After the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney was announced in December 2017 and completed in March 2019, Disney CEO Bob Iger said that Deadpool would be integrated with the MCU under Disney, with Reynolds expected to reprise his role.[297][298] In December 2019, Reynolds confirmed that a third Deadpool film was in development, though it would be produced by Marvel Studios.[299] In March 2022, filmmaker Shawn Levy was hired to direct the project and writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick returned from the previous two films, to write a revised screenplay based on a story penned by the Molyneux sisters.[300] In September 2022, Hugh Jackman was revealed to be reprising his role as Wolverine in the film, appearing as a co-lead with Reynolds in a similar vein to the initial vision for the film at Fox.[301] The film in its current iteration is scheduled to be released on May 3, 2024, as part of Phase Five of the MCU.

completing work on the first season of Fargo at FX in 2014 Noah Hawley was presented with the opportunity to develop the first live action television series based on the X Men comics of which he was a fan when growing up 98 Hawley was initially pitched two different ideas for the potential series 99 including an adaptation of the comics Hellfire Club but the ideas did not interest Hawley Instead he worked with X Men film series writer and producer Simon Kinberg to reverse engineer an idea for the series set in alternate continuity to that of the film series After discussing an interesting show in this genre that isn t being done the two settled on the character of David Haller Legion Hawley found the character interesting because of his mental illness and for the potential of the series to depict his unique mindset 98 He pitched the series as a deconstruction of a villain and a love story 99 In October 2015 FX ordered a pilot for Legion with Marvel Television and FX Productions producing FX Productions would handle the physical production Hawley was set to write the pilot and executive produce the series alongside X Men film producers Lauren Shuler Donner Bryan Singer and Kinberg Marvel Television executives Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory and Hawley s Fargo collaborator John Cameron 100 Steve Blackman Alan Fine Stan Lee Joe Quesada and Karim Zreik also executive produce 101 Hawley s initial script for the series was described as less fractured cohesive and much more regular However he quickly reconceived the series and decided more Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Terrence Malick more whimsy more impressionistic and went in that direction 99 By January 2016 FX President John Landgraf was confident that the series would be picked up by the network saying that the vast majority of things that we pilot do go forward to series and the scripts for Legion are extraordinary 102 That May FX ordered an eight episode first season of Legion 103 starring Dan Stevens as the title character alongside Rachel Keller Aubrey Plaza Jean Smart Jeremie Harris Amber Midthunder Katie Aselton Bill Irwin Jemaine Clement and Hamish Linklater 103 104 with Navid Negahban and Lauren Tsai respectively joining the cast in the second and third seasons 105 106 In January 2016 Landgraf stated that the series would be set in a universe parallel to the X Men films where the US government is in the early days of being aware that something called mutants exist but the public is not He felt it was unlikely that characters would cross over between the show and films but noted that this could change between then and the premiere of the series 102 In August Singer confirmed that Legion had actually been designed to fit into the X Men film series universe but also to stand alone so you wouldn t have to label the relationship between the series and the films He teased plans to have the series relate to future X Men movies 107 At New York Comic Con 2016 Donner said that the series is far from the X Men movies but still lives in that universe The only way for X Men to keep moving forward is to be original and to surprise And this is a surprise It is very very different Hawley explained that because the series is depicting the title character s subjective reality it would not have to address any connections to the films straight away noting that Fargo which is connected to the 1996 film of the same name at first had to stand on its own feet before exploring its explicit continuity connections more We have to earn the right to be part of this universe My hope is we create something so strong that the people in the movie studio call and say they would be foolish enough not to connect these things He did state that you can t tell this story without acknowledging that Legion is the son of the same incarnation of Charles Xavier who appears in the films portrayed by Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy 108 Donner stated in January 2017 that having Hawley focus on Haller s perspective of reality rather than connections to the X Men films allowed the series to avoid the convoluted continuity of the films because we play with so many different timelines and we rebooted and not really rebooted and all that throughout the films Therefore the cinematic universe will not worry about Legion 99 For the onscreen confirmation that Xavier is Haller s father in Chapter 7 with Xavier s signature wheelchair shown in a brief flashback the series production was able to choose from any of the variant wheelchairs used throughout the film series They settled on the version from X Men Apocalypse with the prop used in that film being brought out of storage for the show 109 110 In March 2017 Patrick Stewart was approached about reprising his role as Xavier from the film series in the series third season saying he was Absolutely 100 willing to reprise the role 111 while having Stewart return as a present day Xavier had been seriously considered by showrunner Noah Hawley he elected the older character s presence to be unnecessary upon deciding to have the season revolve around time travel and after finding James McAvoy to be unavailable for filming cast Harry Lloyd as a young Xavier 112 The Gifted 2017 2019 edit Main article The Gifted American TV series In July 2016 after a series based on the Hellfire Club an X Men comic property did

producing alongside X Men film series producers Bryan Singer Lauren Shuler Donner and Simon Kinberg and Marvel Television executives Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory 113 114 Nix pitched the series to executives as Running on Empty with mutants 115 He created an elaborate presentation using Prezi which included photos of preferred actors that he had altered to look like mutants and graphics to explain how the series would fit in with the continuity of the X Men films 116 On May 9 Fox ordered the show to series as The Gifted The pilot had been called one of the hottest pilots of the 2017 broadcast development season by commentators 117 The first season consists of 13 episodes 118 In August Len Wiseman joined as a director and executive producer for the season 119 That October Nix said that he had planned a couple of seasons in broad strokes and stated that he wanted to be doing this show for a long time Noting a growing trend in shorter self contained television seasons Nix said that he wanted the show to feel more like a traditional long running story and so have each season end in a satisfying way that does not feel close ended 115 On January 4 2018 the series was renewed for a 16 episode second season 120 121 Described as being designed for limited runs Fox had not been in a hurry to give the series an early renewal before then 120 On April 17 2019 it was announced

response edit Wesley Morris of The Boston Globe praised the first three X Men films as more than a cash guzzling wham bang Hollywood franchise these three movies sport philosophy ideas a telethon load of causes and a highly elastic us versus them allegory Morris praised X Men The Last Stand for put ting the heroes of a mighty summer blockbuster in a rare mortal position Realism at this time of year How unorthodox 177 Roger Ebert gave the films mostly positive reviews but criticized them for the amount of mutants stating their powers are so various and ill matched that it s hard to keep them all on the same canvas 178 The first two films were highly praised due to their cerebral tone However when director Bryan Singer left the series many criticized his successor Brett Ratner Colin Colvert of the Star Tribune felt Singer s sensitivity to the discrimination themes made the first two X Men films surprisingly resonant and soulful for comic based summer extravaganzas Singer is adept at juggling large casts of three dimensional characters Ratner makes shallow unimaginative bang ups 179 James Berardinelli felt X Men The Last Stand isn t as taut or satisfying as X Men 2 but it s better constructed and better paced than the original X Men The differences in quality between the three are minor however despite the change in directors there seems to be a single vision 180 David Denby of The New Yorker praised the liquid beauty and the poetic fantasy of Singer s work but called Ratner s film a crude synthesizer of comedy and action tropes 181 Singer s third film in the series X Men Days of Future Past was also well received Alonso Duralde of The Wrap felt that Singer keeps things moving along briskly enough that you can just go along with the ride of Superhero Stuff without getting bogged down 182 Spider Man director Sam Raimi said he was a fan of the series particularly Singer s films 183 Film historian Kim Newman also tonally compared Batman Begins to Singer s films 184 Logan was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay 185 There was criticism of the large casts and the limited screen time available for all of them Richard George of IGN reacted well to the depictions of Wolverine Professor X Magneto Jean Grey Storm William Stryker Mystique Beast and Nightcrawler however George thought many of the younger X Men characters such as Rogue Iceman Pyro Angel and Kitty Pryde were adjectiveless teenagers and was disappointed by Cyclops characterization He observed the filmmakers were big fans of silent henchmen due to the small roles of the various villainous mutants such as Lady Deathstrike and Psylocke 186 Jesse Schedeen of IGN stated that the continuity of the films does not make sense with dead characters returning with zero or little explanation different versions of the same character appearing across multiple films and plot points that are conveniently ignored in later films He also criticized 20th Century Fox for not mapping out the series from the beginning 187 In his review of Dark Phoenix Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal characterized the entire X Men film series as being a notoriously erratic franchise 188 Each film and television series is linked to the Critical response section of its article Critical and public response to X Men Film Critical PublicRotten Tomatoes Metacritic

Four 2005 V for Vendetta and Singer s Superman Returns 186 Chris Hewitt of Empire magazine called the first X Men film as the catalyst for films based on Marvel Comics characters stating Singer s 2000 film is the catalyst for everything that s come since good and bad Without it there s no Marvel Studios 231 Comic book writer Mark Millar said that Singer s X Men revolutionized superhero films 232 Rebecca Rubin of Variety magazine stated that the X Men franchise has proven there is an audience for a hardline superhero film while Jeff Bock of Exhibitor Relations said that with films like the Deadpool films and Logan the studios can do more with an R rated film and give the audience something new 233 However Tim Grierson and Will Leitch of New York magazine s Vulture criticized the series noting that the best films of the series failed to capture the zeitgeist the way Marvel Cinematic Universe films did 234 Music editSoundtracks edit Title U S release date Length Composer s LabelX Men
