We never know man, this could actually turn out pretty good. I mean the executive producer did work on Fargo, and from what I hear that show got critical acclaim. Lets see how this turns out.

Mathew Crawley is Prof. Xavier's son. Well at least he'll know how his dad feels being stuck in a wheelchair.

Eh. Could, but right now, I have neither seen nor heard anything that makes me hopeful.

More interested in Hellfire Club. I want to see more of Emma and Shaw.

These projects better be good. Purportedly Fox quietly gave up the movie rights to F4 (and with it, Galactus and Surfer) in order to get the blessing to do so from Marvel.

Bryan Singer and Simon Kinberg are executive producers so don't get your hopes up.

Unless you've seen an actual report that I've missed, this has never been rumored or reported... it's just what all of us have assumed and theorized, because honestly, it's very unlikely that this isn't EXACTLY what happened.

And honestly, I expect these will suck. Although I'd love a recast Emma Frost.

Ditto for me.

Another new X-Series in the works?

Quote:

Thus far in 2017, Fox has been dragging their feet when it comes to placing orders for new television pilots. One interesting comment has come from Fox chairman Gary Newman in speaking with Deadline that he expects a final draft of an X-Men series penned by Matt Nix (Burn Notice, Complications, The Good Guys) to land in his hands shortly.

Earlier drafts of the script have been enthusiastically received within Fox as well as their TV production partners 20th Century Fox TV and Marvel TV. Once the final lands in their hands, Newman hopes to order the pickup within a few weeks. A challenge may come between the mix of film and television execs lined up to produce – on the one hand you have the film crew of Simon Kinberg, Lauren Donner, and Bryan Singer who have been behind the less than enthusiastically-met X-Men universe of films, and Marvel’s Jeph Loeb and Jim Cory who’ve brought the award winning Marvel TV series (Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones).

The as-yet untitled series focuses on two non-mutant parents who discover that their children possess mutant powers and are forced to go on the run from a government who want to take the children for their own ends. The family joins up with an underground network of mutants who must fight to hold onto their freedoms. Yea, it sounds like pretty standard fare, but is relevant to the country’s current political climate and could be cool if they go back to the Mutant Massacre storyline from the mid-80s.

This is pretty old news; the existence of this intended series, I mean. Pretty sure Fox made mention of it in the same week they canned the "Hellfire Club" idea...

This idea sounds incredibly generic. Pass.
