Deadpool 2 is set to be released this May, while X-Men: Dark Phoenix follows in December and The New Mutants will finally reach theaters next February. While Fox has a lot of different X-Men projects in the works, there's a very good chance that the latter will be the final one released by the studio because Disney is in the process of acquiring the studio and the many Marvel characters it owns.
Well, it appears as if Fox is looking to squeeze one more Marvel movie in before it's too late because a new report claims that X-Force will start shooting this October. That would mean it finishes filming before the Disney deal can go through, a sign perhaps that it will be released late 2019 (it's going to take time to bring the X-Men into the MCU so it's unlikely Disney would decide against releasing it).
For now, everything is very much a case of "wait and see" when it comes to both this deal and the future of Ryan Reynolds' Merc with the Mouth. Considering the fact it appears as if Deadpool 2 will go some way in introducing X-Force, it would be a shame not to see the team on the big screen and a movie like this would certainly help Fox go out on a high. What do you guys think? Sound off below.
