Fox Announces Untitled X Men Movie For 2018; Rumored X Men Vs Fantastic Four Crossover Movie

| By

Fox has followed suit after DC's and Marvel's announcements of films coming in the next few year. They have created a buzz with a sudden announcement of Channing Tatum starring in a Gambit solo film confirmed for 2016, adding to the hype of their other much anticipated releases X Men: Apocalpyse, Deadpool and the Fantastic Four reboot.

At the end of their calendar is an untitled X Men movie scheduled to be released in 2018. It was quick for rumors to spread on the interwebs that an X Men Vs Fantastic Four crossover might be possible. Making sense of the gossip, it looks like Fox isn't letting go of their beloved brands anytime soon despite fans wanting the rights to X Men be transferred over to Marvel Studios for them to crossover into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, further developing the Avengers arc into a story faithful to the comic books.

The chances of us seeing an X Men Vs Fantastic Four crossover is still far-off despite rumors that this is Fox's version of Marvel's Avengers and DC's Justice League. But it is nice to speculate, even more with Fantastic Four's writer Simon Kinberg fiddling with the idea:

"I love the characters, I love the characters in Fan Four, and I love the new cast. Obviously I love the characters and cast of X-Men. So, hypothetically, the notion of putting them together is really intriguing, and there's some really fun stuff that the comics have done in the past. So it's not out of the realm of possibility."

Until then, fans and moviegoers can enjoy these two brands in their standalone movies.

Fantastic Four opens on August 7, 2015, Deadpool, on February 12, 2016, X Men: Apocalypse on May 27, 2016, Gambit on October 7, 2016, Wolverine 3 on March 3, 2017, Fantastic Four 2 on June 2, 2017 and the untitled X Men movie on July 13, 2018.
