Marvel Studios Unveils Mind-Blowing Mutant Line-Up for MCU Phase 7

Summary

The Mutant Saga could be the next phase for the Marvel Cinematic Universe after the Multiverse Saga, as proposed by M14H through a TikTok video.

Marvel Studios has already introduced several mutants, and incorporating the X-Men would enable them to broaden and rejuvenate their franchise beyond the Avengers. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige indirectly suggested incorporating mutants into their forthcoming projects, suggesting that the Mutant Saga could potentially be the path they opt for.

In a new artistic infographic, the Mutant Saga is proposed as Phase 7 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), following the ongoing Multiverse Saga. Marvel Studios aims to surpass the success of the Infinity Saga with a range of movies and Disney+ shows featuring both new and established heroes. However, the critical and commercial reception of projects in Phases 4 and 5 has been mixed.

Although the Multiverse Saga is still in Phase 6, there are already discussions about Phase 7 and what direction the MCU should take. M14H pitched the idea through a TikTok video, suggesting that the next arc should focus on the Mutant Saga and incorporate various MCU shows and movies centered around X-Men characters. The proposed line-up includes potential sequels for Fantastic Four, The Marvels, and Captain America, along with a new project for Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch. Phase 7 would look as follows:

Why Phase 7 Would Be The Natural Time To Do The Mutant Saga After Multiverse Saga

Given the current state of the MCU, it would be opportune to have The Mutant Saga immediately follow The Multiverse Saga. While the MCU continues to be lucrative and popular, it is evident that some of the excitement has waned since The Infinity Saga, as Marvel Studios now focuses on the next generation of their franchise. Considering the challenges posed by the ongoing pandemic and Hollywood strikes, The Multiverse Saga is facing some momentum issues. Hence, it may be the right time for Marvel Studios to contemplate a significant shift.

The Mutant Saga would be the perfect next step for Marvel Studios, as the MCU has already begun introducing mutants. The X-Men joining the MCU is a highly anticipated event, especially since Marvel Studios regained the rights from Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox. This integration of the X-Men into the MCU would bring a breath of fresh air and expand the franchise beyond just the Avengers. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 that mutants would be utilized, making The Mutant Saga a likely direction for the future. With a vast array of characters to choose from, it will be thrilling to see how the X-Men are incorporated into both TV and film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hopefully, more information regarding the future of the X-Men will be provided to the audience soon.
