The 20th Century Studios X-Men series was an American multimedia series by 20th Century Studios that was spearheaded by films and television shows with characters related to the Marvel Comics team, the X-Men. It also included comics and music.

Purchase of X-Men film rights

In 1996, Marvel Enterprises went bankrupt. To save the company, the film rights to its most popular characters were sold to various film studios at relatively low prices. The rights to produce X-Men films, as well as films based on characters related to the X-Men, were purchased by 20th Century Fox.

Discontinuation

It was discontinued in 2019 after The Walt Disney Company acquired 20th Century Fox. The last film that was part of the X-Men Saga was The New Mutants, which was released in 2020.

Legacy

Some of the actors in the 20th Century Studios X-Men series have appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In 2021, the television series WandaVision contained a character named Ralph Boener, who had the appearance of the 20th Century Studios X-Men series version of Quicksilver, and temporarily had his powers as well.

In 2022, the film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness contained a variant of Professor X that was an amalgamation of the 20th Century Studios X-Men version and the version from the 1992 X-Men animated series.
