‘The Mutant Era Is Coming’: Marvel Boss Teases How Post-Deadpool 3 MCU Will Focus On The X-Men

As a long-time Marvel fan and avid gamer, I cannot contain my excitement as the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) continues to expand and introduce new elements that keep us hooked, both in theaters and through Disney+ subscription. For years, fans like me have pondered the question of when and how the X-Men and mutants would fit into the storyline. And now, Marvel executive Kevin Feige has hinted at a significant focus on the X-Men post-“Deadpool 3,” stating, “the mutant era is coming.”


The Marvel Cinamic Universe has kept fans engaged by continually expanding, with new films in theaters and access to more content through a Disney+ subscription. For longtime viewers who have followed the Marvel movies in sequence, a major question remains: when and how will the X-Men and mutants be integrated into the narrative? Recently, Marvel executive Kevin Feige hinted that the post-“Deadpool 3” MCU would explore the X-Men, stating “the mutant era is on its way.” Let’s delve deeper into this development.

Deadpool & Wolverine is the most highly anticipated upcoming Marvel movie in years. A big reason for this is Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine, and the chance to see Jackman and Reynolds’ faux feud play out on the big screen. While speaking with The Playlist, Feige spoke about how mutants will factor into the future of the MCU, offering:

After introducing Deadpool and Wolverine from the X-Men universe, which brings mutants into the picture for us for the first time, this marks the start of the Mutant Era in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Every film that follows will be a part of this new era.

I’m really looking forward to it. For a long time, the X-Men have been on the sidelines in the shared universe, but now it seems they’re set to play a major role. Feige has even hinted that mutants will be involved in almost every upcoming movie. That’s quite a commitment and an exciting prospect for X-Men fans.

As a longtime fan of the X-Men universe, I’m thrilled to see Deadpool and Wolverine’s connection deepen in the upcoming Deadpool 3. Although our knowledge of these characters is still somewhat limited, it’s clear that mutants will play a significant role in this next installment. The trailers have already given us a taste of this with the inclusion of familiar faces from the X-Men franchise, like Wolverine himself.

It’s still uncertain who else will join the cast of Deadpool 3, but the inclusion of mutants as the main focus is an exciting development for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With the multiverse factor coming into play through Loki‘s Time Variance Authority, it seems that this upcoming sequel could significantly shape the course of the shared universe. It’s possible that more mutant-centric stories may emerge as a result.

Due to legal reasons, Deadpool and the X-Men were conspicuously absent from the initial phases of the MCU. However, after Disney bought 20th Century Fox and its assets, these iconic characters gained entry into the expansive cinematic universe. Mutants have been hinted at in episodes like the finale of “Ms. Marvel” and the credits scene of “The Marvels.” Nevertheless, an X-Men team-up has not transpired as of now. As per Feige’s statement, this is soon to unfold on a grand scale.

As a huge fan of comic books and action movies, I’m thrilled to my bones that Deadpool and Wolverine are finally hitting theaters on July 26th. The anticipation is killing me! But while we wait for this epic showdown between two iconic characters, I figure I might as well satiate my movie appetite by checking out the release dates for other films in 2025. With my extensive experience of eagerly counting down the days until blockbuster premieres, I’m always on the lookout for new cinematic experiences to add to my collection. So, if you’re anything like me and can’t get enough of the big screen, join me in exploring what 2025 has in store!
