Avengers vs. X-Men: Kevin Feige Teases Returning Fox Movie Stars for Marvel Crossover

As a long-time Marvel fan, I couldn’t contain my excitement when I heard that Disney had finally acquired the film rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four characters. For years, we’ve seen the Avengers and X-Men interact in the comics, but on the big screen, their stories have been fragmented due to the complicated ownership situation. But now, with Marvel Studios having control of the entire roster, the possibilities are endless!


I remember not so long ago, Marvel’s movie rights were in a chaotic state. Disney held the reins for some heroes while Fox controlled others, and Sony had Spider-Man all to themselves. But now, Disney has taken over Fox, bringing the X-Men and Fantastic Four back under Marvel’s umbrella. This acquisition could potentially pave the way for a live-action adaptation of “Avengers vs. X-Men,” as suggested by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige.

“Feige expressed his disappointment during interviews with ComicBook over not being able to utilize all the characters in films like ‘Captain America: Civil War’ and ‘Avengers: Infinity War.’ Previously, we had to exclude numerous characters from these stories due to lack of access. However, as we plan future narratives, we no longer face this restriction and can include any character we desire.”

Online buzz has been building up that the upcoming Marvel movie, originally titled “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty” and now referred to as “Avengers 5“, might shift its focus to a battle between the Avengers and X-Men since it seems Kang is no longer slated for the MCU’s future.
