Feige said, “I don’t know if it’s delicate. It’s super exciting. But the X-Men are as solid, rich, and great a concept and characters as exist. [There’s] the return of the animated series next year, which we’re very excited about. I saw some new final episodes today, which really brought you back to the core of who the X-Men are and the soap opera that those characters represent. And then, in live action, people will see… perhaps, soon.”
