Since the merging, Disney folded the Fox 2000 brand name. Fox 2000 featured movies like the Tom Hanks-led News of the World as well as Angie Thomas’ On The Come up. Fox’s Dark Phoenix was additionally the last movie in the long-running X-Men franchise. It will continue until Marvel Studios can introduce the X-Men personalities in the MCU at some future time. Currently, it looks like it will undoubtedly be a while before we see them, as Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige has hinted it can even be around five years.
