The Marvels Sneak Peek Hints at Major X-Men Tie-In
Is The Marvels hinting at the long-awaited arrival of X-Men in the MCU? Exciting possibilities arise as fans eagerly anticipate which iconic mutant will make their debut first
Article Key Points
The Marvels, a sequel to Captain Marvel and Ms. Marvel, may feature a surprise cameo from a character connected to one of the worst Marvel movies ever made.
The Marvels' latest preview teasingly suggests the highly anticipated arrival of the X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, leaving viewers intrigued by the lingering presence of the letter "X" at the teaser's conclusion. The film centers around the journey of Kamala Khan, Carol Danvers, and Monica Rambeau, as they delve into the interconnected nature of their powers, potentially paving the way for the introduction of the X-Men through a captivating interdimensional encounter.
The Marvels is poised to bring together multiple storylines in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A recently released teaser has heightened speculation about an unexpected surprise cameo in the film, potentially linking it to one of the franchise's least successful movies. With its narrative connections to Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, and WandaVision, The Marvels already promises a great opportunity for surprise appearances. Adding one more seems fitting in this fusion of sequels and interconnected threads.
That "one more" could potentially be connected to the secret cameo. A new preview for The Marvels, released on the Marvel Entertainment YouTube channel, initially appears to be a teaser for the film's upcoming release on November 10th. However, hidden within those 15 seconds is a subtle reference to something that has been hinted at in the MCU for years. Throughout the trailer, words gradually form the phrase, "Be there for what comes next." As the final words fade away, one particular letter lingers, drawing attention. The letter "X" remains, suggesting that the X-Men will finally make their highly anticipated debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The Marvels is likely to be the introduction of the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, especially considering the revelation in Ms. Marvel that Kamala Khan is a mutant. This revelation served as an explanation for her powers in the show, but it also suggests that the X-Men will make an appearance at some point in the overall MCU. The fans have been eagerly waiting for their arrival, and it seems like their wait may soon be over. The Marvels follows Kamala, Carol Danvers, and Monica Rambeau as they try to understand the connection between their powers. This could potentially be the way the X-Men are introduced, possibly through a reaction to their powers that involves universe-hopping.
A peculiar aspect of this exciting development is the speculation that Kelsey Grammer's Beast might be the one to reveal the X-Men. Despite his role in X-Men: The Last Stand, which was heavily criticized, he wasn't particularly exceptional beyond the novelty of seeing Dr. Frasier Crane as a blue and fuzzy character. If they are going in that direction, why not choose someone more important or even someone unexpected like Halle Berry as Storm or Daniel Radcliffe as Wolverine?
Regardless of the situation, it is highly likely that The Marvels will mark the introduction of the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, it is somewhat regrettable. Despite the thrilling and comical appearance of the movie in the previews, the MCU's marketing strategy and release timing seem to be setting up The Marvels for failure. Introducing an entirely new aspect of the universe in this manner would be underwhelming. Let's hope that the film's quality will ultimately prevail. The Marvels is scheduled to hit theaters on November 10th.

Editor's P/S
As a hard fan of Marvel Cinematic Universe, I am thrilled by the possibility of X-Men's arrival in the MCU. The X-Men have been a fan-favorite for decades, and their inclusion in the MCU would be a major event. The Marvels seems like the perfect place to introduce them, as it is a film that is already dealing with the multiverse and alternate realities.
I am also intrigued by the possibility that Kelsey Grammer's Beast could be the one to reveal the X-Men. Grammer is a talented actor, and I think he could bring a lot to the role. However, I am also open to the possibility of another actor playing Beast. Ultimately, I just want the X-Men to be introduced in a way that is faithful to the comics and that does justice to the characters.
