1:03 - Feige actually said the title back at SDCC 2019 and no one thought anything of it then.

Marvel Studios Executive Criticizes the X-Men Name as 'Outdated'

Asked about Marvel's future and the X-Men's involvement in it, Marvel Studios EVP of Production Victoria Alonso shared her issue with the X-Men's name

www.cbr.com

"I don't know where the future is going," Alonso told Nuke the Fridge. "It's funny that people call it the X-Men. There's a lot of female superheroes in that X-Men group, so I think it's outdated."

I honestly think a simple title like that is good as a first movie for the MCU. As long as the point of the movie is to show what mutants are, how they came to be and where they have been over the past 15+ years of the MCU, like a mutant origin story. Then the sequels can be titled X-Men and X-Factor and X-Force or whatever they choose.

Based on Victoria Alonso's comments, I don't know if we'll see the X-Men name used now.

Even in the movie itself?

She literally says she feels it's outdated, and she's #2 under Feige (along with Louis D'Esposito).

 

[dorkimoe]

X-men too offensive

 

[A Elbereth Gilthoniel]

Soon this shit will look like this - It's only a matter of time before the Care Bears show up.

I highly doubt she can tell Feige what to do. The comics are still X-Men and it's a brand name everyone knows.
But yeah, I don't care if they go for X-Force , X-Factor, Exiles, Generation X, Hellions, Marauders, Mutant X or X-Statix instead of X-Men though.

You forgot xcalibur.

 

[AJUMP23]

Can I get a good colossus?

 

[Sub_Level]

Gonna need a better source, OP. I don't see how any of us are supposed to believe there's going to be a new X-men movie.

 

[sol_bad]

You forgot xcalibur.

Aren't they more UK centric?

 

[Hulk_Smash]

Aren't they more UK centric?

I was just throwing in the kitchen sink.

 

[Labolas]

Gatdamn muties. Seriously though hopefully this will be better than the last movie that had Mutants.

 

[Batiman]

What comments?

 

[ManaByte]

What comments?

See my post above.

 

[G-Bus]

Yea I'm really interested in how they handle this and what mutants take centre stage.

Simply calling it mutants and leaving x-men behind leaves it really open.

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Yeah we gonna see them in 4 hours

 

[sol_bad]

Yeah we gonna see them in 4 hours

LOL
Don't set yourself up for disappointment.

X-Reee. BLM Boy, Pronouns Sister...

 

[Somebody_Important]

A reboot?
Does this mean Wolverine will be recast?
No one will ever top Hugh Jackman.

 

[SJRB]

X-Men is not inclusive enough, o my god the ride never ends. We really deserve the rapture at this point.

Looking forward to X-Genders.

Just call them "Inhumans". We already got them in the marvel universe

Oh for fuck sake.

 

[The Hamburglar]

Jude law as the new wolverine plz

 

[GeorgPrime]

Now they can buy DC und then bring the legendary Iron Man vs Batman movie

 

[GeorgPrime]

Oh for fuck sake.

They are called now "GenderNeutral-Deer" now

He already retired from the role.

 

[bitbydeath]

Jude law as the new wolverine plz

I gather this is a joke since he’s already pushing 50.

 

[Sybrix]

Jude law as the new wolverine plz

He was the villain in Capt Marvel and still alive IIRC

Feige isn’t going anywhere near Fox’s shit. WandaVision proved that. Everyone was 100% convinced that Evan Peters was playing the Fox Quicksilver in that, and it turned out he wasn’t.

 

[archangelmorph]

Fictional world where humans develop genetic quirks that give them special powers...

Now we are all sensitive about calling them "X-men" (affront to ultra-feminist identity) but we don't even notice the irony in being happy to call them "mutants" (essentially calling them sub-human entirely)...?

... fuck me

 

[Reality Czar]

X Men too offensive another thing we used to joke about now coming true

eff this

 

[Stitch]

They already had this retarded line in the last dumb movie


@ 2:07

Thank god we don't have to see Jennifer Lawrence anymore

 

[Croatoan]

Just use X-Factor, X-Force, etc.

 

[Cockles & Whelks]

He already retired from the role.

Your man Antony Starr was my top choice after seeing him in action in Banshee. The Boys might nix that. Henry Cavill could grizzle up well if he's forced out by Superwoke and joins the MCU.

 

[Lukin1978]

I liked Jackman, Fassbender and McAvoy as wolverine, magneto and professor x. The rest of the original x- men cast who cares.
Going to be hard to replace these guys.

 

[Mossybrew]

This is good, time to get some new blood for these roles.

 

[sol_bad]

Just call them "Inhumans". We already got them in the marvel universe

Ms. Marvel will be the first.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Watch them change it to x-womxn
