Producer Simon Kinberg (X-Men: First Class, X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: The Last Stand) has confirmed that the X-Men movie that will follow this years’ X-Men: Apocalypse will be set in the 1990’s.
Kinberg said:
“The next one is set in the ’90s.”
This follows the pattern Fox established with the X-Men franchise ever since X-Men: First Class (2011) took the franchise back in time. First Class was set in the 1960’s, followed by X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) taking place in the 1970’s and X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) taking place in the 1980’s. All of the recent X-Men films have had ten year time jumps.
It’s unknown whether Kinberg was referring to the next core X-Men movie or the spin-off based on The New Mutants.
Thoughts on this news? Are you looking forward to seeing an X-Men movie set in the 1990’s?
