Amid Marvel’s Legal Drama With X-Men ‘97 Creator, One Of The Series’ Directors Weighed In On The New Showrunner
Just before the highly praised show X-Men ‘97 debuted earlier this year, there was a significant change in leadership behind the scenes. Back in March, it was announced that Beau DeMayo, the series creator and chief writer, had been let go from his position, with the reasons for his dismissal not being disclosed at the time. Lately, DeMayo has been embroiled in a dispute with Marvel Studios regarding the supposed motives behind his departure. No lawsuits have been brought up yet, but DeMayo has sought legal advice, while his previous staff members have alleged breaches of contractual obligations. Despite this, the production of the show continues, and one of its directors recently expressed their thoughts on the new head writer.
