Marvel Studios is reviving the X-Men following Disney's 2019 acquisition of Fox, with speculation fueled by the introduction of telepath Jean Grey, played by Sadie Sink, in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
A clean reboot is reportedly scheduled for May 2028 under director Jake Schreier, with unconfirmed reports pointing to Samara Weaving as Emma Frost and Kit Connor as a top choice for Cyclops; Disney has only officially confirmed Sink's casting.
The piece notes earlier X-Men franchise entries under Fox ended in flops (Dark Phoenix, The New Mutants) and predicts Marvel will likely lean toward younger characters and interpersonal drama over the cosmic weirdness of the comics, following the template set by Brand New Day.
