I guess if the MCU introduces the Fox Men as people from another earth, because of the multiverse, both brands can unite for a movie or movies while keeping their separate franchises intact, when the crossover is done. Kind of like The Flash tv show and Super Girl series, when they do crossover episodes.

You really think Disney went into all that trouble to use those stale *** watered down characters?

It's highly unlikely that Disney will use the Fox Men, but a Hugh Jackman appearance in the MCU might be more impactful and meaningful than a brand new Wolvie. With a multiverse, they can have both, Jackman for a movie, then introduce the new Disney XMen in the MCU universe.

Having jackman in yellow suit will be a bigger shock to nerds than when spiderman stole captain Americas shield in civil war.
People will cry if they see that

I think they should save the yellow suit for a new Wolvie, as a symbolic change or new beginning. Maybe give Jackman a brown costume with no mask.

Hugh Jackman is an A-List star. Disney would work a deal. Maybe they use a yellow suit, maybe they don't. But if they think they could entice him to return they'll do it. He's straight up said if he could be in an Avengers film he'd return.

Who exactly is this in reference to? Jackman's Wolverine, Stewart's Xavier, Reynolds' Deadpool, Fassbender's Magneto....legends in this genre.
The notion of Disney rebooting them never made any sense to me. The notion of Disney bringing them over makes a lot more sense.
For ****'s sake, Jackman is a bigger star than RDJ.

Captain Marvel takes place the same year as X-Men: Dark Phoenix and both are said to feature Skrulls as villains.

First of all, I am still holding my breath on this one. The Trump administration might not like a merger like this and might feel like this will create antitrust issues. https://variety.com/2017/politics/news/disney-fox-antitrust-1202631193/
But if Disney does (hopefully) acquire Fox, I don't see Feige wanting any of that Fox garbage in his MCU. He is going to reboot X-Men and FF, but with that Deadpool box office, they have a big decision to make there. By the time this sale would go through, Deadpool 2, New Mutants and X-Men: Dark Phoenix will be released. Say DP2 does another billion, it is going to be tough to pass on a DP3 and another billion. If you acknowledge DP, then you acknowledge the previous X-Men movies. Tough call on a DP3, but I say Bob Iger stays with no rated-R movies.
But going forward, FF is the big deal IMO. They complement the spacefaring initiative that Marvel is headed towards, bring in the best baddie in all of Marvel and compliment all other heroes with their tech including the Baxter Building. With the X-Men, it would make sense that Xavier is doing a boarding/private school and is able to identify mutants quickly and teach them in secret at his school. Magento would get tired of hiding and force mankind to embrace mutants. I would like to see a middle-aged Magneto and Xavier. Tired of the elderly approach to them and have Magneto look bad*** with long, white flowing hair. Cyclops should not be some ******-bag either. He is the leader and they need to treat him like one. The rosters always seemed to be awful in each movie and rarely, if at all, embraced the spirit of each character. Having Wolverine and Sabertooth not recognize each other in the first X-Men pretty much set it off in that direction. **** Singer and Fox don't understand neither content nor fan base. Beast has got to be in there day one and be CG.
Got to imagine Feige has already been in the ear of Bob Iger, stating that they must get these rights back. The merchandising, movies, etc. will pay off significantly short and long-term. Even though Marvel IMO has been hit and miss with their movies, they still capture the spirit of the character and ground the universe they are in with great oversight by Feige.

Aside from the narrative - which would be a mess and needlessly limit new stories - I doubt Disney wants to pay a bunch of established actors from an exhausted franchise. They’ll get more excitement from a fresh start.

A multiverse merge due to the Infinity Gauntlet being used.
The Fox Heroes could have just defeated their Thanos with glove causing the merging of the worlds.
I would just like to see a fresh reboot.

If they made Wolvie a rarely-used character it might be cool to see Jackman show up. But I’d rather see him incorporated into the existing MCU continuity with a new actor than be a meta wink at the fans.
Plus, Logan should really be left as Jackman Wolverine’s last appearance IMO.

Even if Jackman did join the MCU - for how long would it be? He's not getting younger and there's probably only so much of the body-building and diet stuff that he can take.
Part of me would love to see it, I just don't think it's feasible and it wouldn't be very long term anyway.

The good thing about the mask is that the stunt double does all the action
The jackman only does the talkie parts

Having Wolverine relegated to only cameos would be nice, but I'm so over Jackman in the part. I appreciated him a lot, but I'd rather go with new blood that would look more the part.

I’m more interested in the rest of the team anyway. I have enjoyed Jackman but I’m not much of comic Wolverine fan.

I wonder if the prospect of Fantastic Four and the X-Men entering the MCU is now making any of the current MCU actors reconsider leaving (assuming some of them were planning to)
