We get an update on the X-Men movie universe from Simon Kinberg at the recent 2016 Saturn awards.
Kinberg offers news on Wolverine, Deadpool 2, a new main X-Men movie, New Mutants and Gambit.
“We’re figuring that out now,” Kingerg responded when asked what’s next from the X-Men franchise. “The first thing up, we’re shooting the Wolverine movie right now, and we start shooting Deadpool 2 at the beginning of next year, and I sit down and start writing the next one of the mainline X-Men movies real soon.”
On New Mutants, Kinberg offered:
“I can’t tell you what the roster is, but I can tell you who the director is, which is Josh Boone who directed Fault In Our Stars,” Kinberg said. “We have a really good script and hoping to shoot that real soon, too. It’s very loyal to the comics. I’ll leave it at that.”
While the release of the Channing Tatum Gambit movie has been delayed, Kinberg says he hopes to film next year.
“Yeah. We have a great script on that and hope to shoot that movie at the beginning of Spring of next year.”

Synopsis:
Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.

Following Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn stating not to believe the rumors about Fox and Disney, now Deadpool director Tim Miller and executive producer Simon Kinberg say more of the same.
Miller and Kinberg spoke with CBR, where Miller notes he doesn’t think “anybody would seriously consider it” due to the legal issues and such.
Miller: I’m ready for it, but the studios are not ready for it.
Kinberg: We would love it. I mean, Tim and I talked about it quite a bit. We grew up on comics that did it all the time, quite freely. Not just within the Marvel Universe, but outside the Marvel Universe. So it’d be rad to see it. Those decisions are made by people at a much higher part of the food chain than Tim and I — we just go execute it.
But yeah, we would love it, and we certainly each have a really good relationship with Kevin Feige. Maybe one day there’s a sit-down, “Godfather”-style dinner where we could broker a deal. It’d be cool.
Miller: I honestly can say, as an adult who works in this industry, you certainly can see all the reasons why it doesn’t happen. The corporate inertia, just the lawyering of that deal alone is so daunting that I don’t think anybody would seriously consider it.
But as a fan, you just want to go, “Fuck man! Why can’t I see that?” Because that’s what I got in comic books. What’s more, they had DC/Marvel crossover events that were just stupendous. On a creative level, you just want to say that comic books is just a huge world. I read Marvel, and I read DC, and I read Image, and I read small independent publishers. I’ve got a “Goon” comic book from Dark Horse. I love all of that stuff. To me, it’s all one big world.
The previous Avengers and X-Men rumor stated a crossover movie was happening in 2020, with a second rumor stating the X-Men was going to be rebooted within the MCU following X-Men: Apocalypse.
Fox released a new promo image for Deadpool which reveals the Blu-Ray special features.

Coming out of CinemanCon, Fox Studios’ presentation saw a slew of announcements regarding Deadpool, Avatar and more. New footage from X-Men: Apocalypse, Independence Day: Resurgence and Assassin’s Creed was also shown off.
Details include:
Deadpool 2 is officially green lit, with Ryan Reynolds and the original creative team returning (director Tim Miller and writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick). No release date has been announced just yet.
X-Men: Apocalypse footage confirms Magneto is Quicksilver’s father; shows Mystique as having a leader role; the movie takes place ten years after X-Men: Days Of Future Past, and the trailer shows the younger X-Men being in awe of Mystique.
Wolverine 3 didn’t get much attention other than an “Untitled Wolverine” title card shown on screen.
Gambit did not get mentioned at all.
Independence Day: Resurgence saw a new extended trailer released.
Assassin’s Creed trailer debuted.
Death Cure is still coming out in 2017.
Avatar will have four more sequels kicking off in 2018 (Avatar 2 is due Christmas 2018, Avatar 3 is due Christmas 2020, Avatar 4 is due Christmas 2022, Avatar 5 is due Christmas 2023). The official Avatar Facebook also posted an updated logo:
Both Deadpool director Tim Miller and executive producer/writer of the X-Men movies Simon Kinberg talk about the potential of an Avengers and X-Men Marvel crossover.
“I would love to some day in part heal the rift between the world of X-Men and the world of Avengers,” Tim Miller told Crave Online.
“Yeah, I think we all would,” Simon Kinberg added. “There’s so much crossover in the comics it would be neat to one day be able see those characters share a movie.”
“Kevin [Feige] is so awesome,” Miller said. “Did you see my little pizza box in one of the scenes? ‘Feige’s Famous Pizza’ — that was my little.. trying to bring these worlds together.”
“Both of us are actually quite close with Kevin and have a profound amount of respect for what he does,” Kinberg offered. “And it would be fun to all team up one day, somehow, together, if that could work.”
“I think it’s a super smart move with Spider-Man. I mean, he’s great,” Miller said.
Miller also offered a resounding “no” when asked if he would like Gwenpool (good answer).
Regarding an X-Men and Avengers crossover, the latest rumor states that it’s happening after X-Men: Apocalypse with a movie possibly coming in 2020.
It also probably helps that long time X-Men producer Lauren Schuler Donner also happens to be friends with Feige as well as the two have worked together in the past.
Keep your fingers crossed.

Watch a first deleted scene below from the Deadpool movie as the film is nominated for the MTV Movie Awards.
The MTV Movie Awards air tomorrow night.
“Deadpool” is directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, TJ Miller as Weasel, Gina Carano as Angel Dust, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Morena Baccarin as Copycat and Ed Skrein as Ajax.
Synopsis:
Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
Mirror (low quality):
Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool movie is now the highest grossing X-Men movie of all time, having recently passed X-Men: Days Of Future Past.
As it stands, Deadpool is currently at $750 million; X-Men: Days Of Future Past finished at $747.8 million.
The numbers for Deadpool aren’t too shabby especially considering Fox didn’t want to greenlight an R-rated superhero flick in the first place. Only when the Deadpool test footage was intentionally leaked did Fox finally agree to go ahead with Reynolds’ and director Tim Miller’s vision.
Deadpool has about a $355 million gross in the U.S., with an international gross of about $395 million, on a $50 million budget.
The success of Deadpool also looks to further spawn additional R-rated superhero movies with it said Hugh Jackman’s final Wolverine movie will be rated as such as well.
Deadpool 2 is also on the way with Ryan Reynolds returning and will feature Cable.
The Deadpool Blu-Ray is now available to pre-order.
Fox and Ryan Reynolds have announced the Deadpool Blu-Ray will be available on May 10th.
Ryan Reynolds tweeted out the news.
Deadpool has made a whopping $745.9 million on a $50 million budget.
Fox has already greenlit Deadpool 2 with Ryan Reynolds returning, and the sequel is set to feature the popular time travelling mutant, Cable.
You can order the Deadpool Blu-Ray through Amazon.
I’m coming… on Blu-ray MAY 10.

In less than two months, Deadpool has now become the highest grossing R-Rated movie of all time, and is just trailing X-Men: Days Of Future Past for the highest grossing X-Men movie of all time in the U.S.
Deadpool opened February 12th to both critic and fan acclaim: Deadpool currently sits at 84% positive amongst critics at Rotten Tomatoes, and 92% of fans say they liked it.
As it stands, Deadpool has netted a total worldwide gross of $745, 700, 017, which now puts it past The Matrix: Reloaded ($742.1 million) for best performing R-rated movie (worldwide).
Deadpool currently sits at #3 in the U.S. for best R-rated movie trailing American Sniper ($350.1 million) and Passion of the Christ ($370.7 million).
Deadpool is only short around $2 million from passing X-Men: Days Of Future Past to give it the best X-Men movie off all time at the box office (worldwide).
Some other stats for the Deadpool movie include:
• Best performing “Revenge” movie (ahead of Gladiator, The Revenant, Quantum of Solace, Djano Unchained)
• #2 Superhero origin movie (trailing Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man)
• Best domestic X-Men movie
• Best R-rated comic book movie

Once again it’s being rumored that the X-Men will be coming back to Marvel.
Back last July saw a rumor hit that Fox and Marvel are planning an Avengers and X-Men move for 2020.
Now it’s being said that following X-Men: Apocalypse, the X-Men will be rebooted within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though Fox will still retain the rights.
The latest info comes from Comic Planet Culture For Life that also states X-Men: Apocalypse will be Bryan Singer’s last X-Men movie.
It’s also again said an announcement will be forthcoming; the first rumor stated an announcement about the X-Men and Marvel Avengers movie would be made at this year’s Comic-Con, which follows the May premiere of X-Men: Apocalypse. Whether the announcement comes this year (if it happens) remains to be seen, but Disney could always announce the Avengers and X-Men event in 2017 at their D23 Expo which just moved to the month of July (the month Comic-Con is normally held).
Regarding any evidence that Fox is teaming with Marvel for Avengers and X-Men, back about two years ago Kevin Feige said “never say never” regarding Marvel teaming up with any of the other studios. Of course, now we know Marvel is working together with Sony on Spider-Man.
Notable X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner is also close to Marvel’s Kevin Feige, as the two worked together, and previously offered she would “love it” if the characters worked together with an enthusiastic “yeah, absolutely,” when questioned about a potential X-Men and Marvel crossover.
Possible further evidence may lie with the recent smash hit Deadpool movie, which features Marvel’s Avengers hellicarrier in the climactic scene. The Hellicarrier in Deadpool was confirmed by the concept artist: “[I] was asked to redesign the helicarrier so it looked as different as possible from the one in The Avengers. And it had to look like it had been taken apart in some places,” Emmanuel Shiu said.
It’s also suggested the previous rift between Marvel Comics and Fox may be over as Marvel Comics is now producing various X-Men related comic books. Marvel Comics previously killed off various X-Men characters including Wolverine and blew up the cast of the Fantastic Four reboot in one of their books. There is also the fact Marvel and Fox are working together on the FX X-Men TV series Legion and Hellfire.
Regarding Fantastic Four, no rumors have suggested the property may be going back to Marvel, but if the X-Men rumors pan out, more than likely Kevin Feige and Marvel will be coming in to save the day for FF as well.
THR has an interview up with Zack and Deborah Snyder about Batman vs. Superman, the Justice League movie universe, confronting various rumors and more.
Check out some highlights:
On Deadpool being the rumored reason why they went with an R-rated Batman Vs. Superman director’s cut home release:
Deborah Sndyer: Online, everyone’s like, “Oh, they’re doing an R-rated in reaction to Deadpool,” and you’re like (laughing), “We didn’t just shoot it last week, and we also didn’t edit it last week.”
Zack Snyder: The why of that is [the DVD version] is a half-hour longer, and some of that additional material is some of the stuff we took out for the rating. I was like, “Cool, I can put it back in for the director’s cut.” There was nothing by design. This was the material I just put back in, and then when [the MPAA] looked at it again, they were like, “Oh, now the movie’s rated R.” And, by the way, it’s not a hard R. There’s no nudity. There’s a little bit of violence. It just tips the scale.
On the rumor that following the second Batman Vs. Superman trailer (with Doomsday), they went back and re-cut the movie:
DS: No. When we had a locked picture, we didn’t change anything. We’ve been working on the 3D. We did the 3D conversion after the movie was done.
On the Justice League universe:
DS: Zack and [DC chief creative officer] Geoff Johns have outlined a timeline of where everybody is based off of, where our characters go in Justice League. So there’s a framework.
Zack: Batman v. Superman was always a steppingstone for Justice League, and it was a way to bring the worlds together without being too jarring. Once you say Batman and Superman exist in the same universe, you’re also saying that Wonder Woman can exist in that world and Flash and Cyborg and Aquaman.
The mandate is that we try and make the best movies we can. If you’re making a Flash movie with Ezra Miller, it’s like millennial Flash. It’s going to be a little lighter than making a World War I epic with this feminist icon like Wonder Woman. The films do live in a united universe.
Members of the DC Brain trust (in addition to Zack and Deborah):
ZACK Chuck [Roven], our partner.
DEB Richard Suckle is producing some of these. On our end, Wesley Coller is an executive producer who works on all the things that we work on. He’s part of our inner family. Geoff Johns is just super valuable, and I think Zack and Geoff really have worked out a lot of the creative ideas as to where the characters are going. Geoff [ensures] we’re doing things that are true to the canon because he knows everything about these characters. And Jon Berg is our executive on all the films, and then obviously Greg [Silverman] was our executive when we first came to Warner Bros., so we’ve always worked with Greg.
They seemingly take a dig or two toward Marvel in regards to giving the DC directors freedom to go the route they want to:
Deb: But it’s filmmaker-driven, in that we want to hire directors who still have a point of view and that have latitude because we don’t want all the movies to feel the same. David Ayer has a certain tone and feel to what he brought to Suicide Squad, as does Patty [Jenkins] to Wonder Woman. They have freedom to tell their story in the way that it needs to be told.
Zack: Our philosophy, though, is it’s filmmaker-driven. A lot of it comes from the idea of “do unto others.” How would I feel if I was told, “Listen, this is your movie, but shoot it like we say”? It’s not fun and cool, and I don’t think you get the best work from everybody. To understand that, there is a bigger storyline, and let’s all support that and not blow up the entire universe because you have an idea that you think is awesome but doesn’t make sense with the bigger thing.
And on “DC vs. Marvel?”
