Before that reset, however, the original X-Men will return for one last hurrah in Avengers: Doomsday and its sequel, Secret Wars.
Instead, Marvel pushed back the expiration date once more, despite fears that yet another X-Men reunion would undermine plans for a much-needed reboot.
Feige intends to do something similar with the MCU’s adaptation of Secret Wars.
Marvel StudiosSecret Wars will create a new, clean, singular MCU timeline, and from there, Feige confirms that a new X-Men team will emerge.
Marvel won’t stop there, as the reset Secret Wars provides will also open the door for departed characters — like Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, or Natasha Romanoff — to return in new forms.
