Tony Black attempts to make sense of the continuity of the X-Men franchise… Have you ever attempted to make sense of the X-Men movie continuity?

Variety is reporting that Andy Weir, author of The Martian, is developing a new project at 20th Century Fox, which will be produced by Ridley Scott and Simon Kinberg.

The next X-Men film will take place in the 1990s
If you’ve been following the X-Men film franchise over the last few years, you may have noticed a new trend: Decade-long time jumps between installments. 2011’s X-Men: First Class took place in the 1960s, its 2014 follow-up X-Men: Days of Future Past jumped 10 years into the 1970s, and this year’s X-Men: Apocalypse is jumping to the 1980s. According to producer Simon Kinberg, […]
Confirmed: Wolverine 3 will be rated R
Now that Deadpool has become the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time, and has even surpassed the domestic box office numbers of a film like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it’s hard to believe that it was ever considered a risky move for 20th Century Fox. That move has, obviously, payed off in spades (and continues to […]
Simon Kinberg says Wolverine 3 “takes place in the future”
With Hugh Jackman set to do the claws one final time for next year’s Wolverine 3, there’s been a lot of speculation – perhaps even bordering on expectation – that the film will adapt Mark Millar and Steve McNiven’s acclaimed Old Man Logan comic book storyline. As yet, there’s been no official word from anyone involved […]
Simon Kinberg says X-Force could be R-rated
While, in theory, Fox giving Deadpool an R rating was a risky decision, considering how most R-rated comic book movies usually don’t do nearly as much business as their PG-13-rated competition (e.g. Watchmen, The Punisher), this past weekend Deadpool raked in a massive $132 million at the U.S. box office, proving that mainstream audiences don’t mind […]
Simon Kinberg and Bryan Singer open to revisiting X-Men’s Dark Phoenix Saga
Among the numerous criticisms aimed at X-Men: The Last Stand was the film’s rather poor attempt at adapting the Dark Phoenix Saga storyline. Well, now that X-Men: Days of Future Past has erased that movie from the timeline, and X-Men: Apocalypse is reintroducing Jean Grey with Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, might we see […]
Simon Kinberg says X-Men: Apocalypse is “biggest X-Men film we’ve ever done”
It’s a big year for 20th Century Fox and its superhero movies. First up out of the gate is the R-rated Deadpool, followed by Bryan Singer’s latest X-Men adventure X-Men: Apocalypse – the first instalment in the “rebooted” timeline following the events of X-Men: Days of Future Past. During a fan Q&A, writer-producer Simon Kinberg […]

During an interview with Collider, writer-producer Simon Kinberg has given an update on two of 20th Century Fox’s upcoming X-Men projects in Hugh Jackman’s Logan swansong Wolverine 3, along with Josh Boone’s New Mutants. “We’re pretty close to a script that everyone’s excited about, and I don’t know when the start date is, but we […]

Anghus Houvouras with this week’s disappointments from the entertainment world… “Peter Jackson admits ‘I didn’t know what the hell I was doing’ on the Hobbit” You know, I have to give Peter Jackson some props.
