Rumor: Simon Kinberg Directing Next ‘X-Men’ Movie
Simon Kinberg is probably directing the next X-Flick, X-Men: Supernova. Should this excite you, should you be excited that Bryan Singer isn’t directing it, remember. Kinberg fucking *wrote* X-Men: Apocalypse.

Fox Officially Orders ‘X-Men’ TV Pilot We All Thought Was Already Ordered
Imma…Imma fucking level with you. I thought Fox had already ordered an X-Men TV pilot.
Hugh Jackman Says ‘Logan’ Is In Different Universe Than ‘X-Men’ Movies
Logan ain’t playing in the same playground as the X-Men movies, apparently. And fuck, with its wrought timeline and continuity, I say that’s a good thing. That way Logan can do its own thing, without attempting to kiss the ass of the convolution that preceded it.
Fox Sets Dates For Two Mystery Marvel Movies
Fox has set the date for two mystery Marvel movies. You like that? “Mystery” movies. That’s how we phrase it these days. They’re definitely not just unannounced. Mysteries!
Fox Planning Soft Reboot Of ‘X-Men’ Movie Franchise
It’s been a few years since Fox rebooted X-Men with First Class. Then they sort of un-rebooted it, by bringing back some of the original cast. Now it appears that they’re going to do a re-reboot. Try to keep up.
The X-Men Comics Line-Up Is Relaunching Next Year!
I have largely forgotten about the X-Men comics in recent years. There are myriad reasons: my own personal proclivity for reading non-Big Two comics, my own confusion about the current mythos, and them just being…okay?

‘Legion’ Trailer: Noah Hawley’s ‘X-Men’ spin-off twists into reality
This show is being produced by Noah Hawley. It’s on FX. It’s a tenuous X-Men spin-off. For the reasons listed before, I will watch this. Mainly because of Noah Hawley, though.
Marvel co-producing an ‘X-Men’ TV series on FOX
Marvel is getting into bed with FOX, at least in some manner. It isn’t exactly Wolverine in Infinity War (dammit!), but the two companies are teaming up to bring an X-Men series to the TV channel.
Maybe: Next ‘X-Men’ movie to be set in Space in the 90s
Got to level with you. Not really expecting anything from X-Men: Apocalypse. It seems to be shaping up to be (if the early reviews are accurate) the film-shaped turd that I expected of Days of Future Past. But hey, maybe the franchise can rally with the next installment. In space.
Rumor: Taylor Swift has cameo in ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ as Dazzler
Taylor Swift may make the impossible, possible. If she has a cameo as Dazzler in X-Men: Apocalypse, she will have condemned one of the raddest characters. I mean, it’s just a cameo. I mean, I’m exaggerating a bit. I mean, I’ll probably enjoy it. But fuck, fuck none the less.
