Regardless of whether or not the X-Men will ever be in the MCU, I do kind of wonder if adamantium, the metal, will ever be canon

I mean in the comics it's just a mixed alloy of vibranium and iron so like in theory you should already be able to make it if you're in the MCU

We have Madripoor in the MCU now, so that's one piece of X-Men lore already.

I'm genuinely curious what the draw of X-Men in the MCU even is.

The comics quickly learned that any comic book sold better if you put Wolverine in it somehow and the MCU is eager to repeat the experiment on the big screen

It'll only work if they find an actor who can measure up to Hugh Jackman in the public eye.

Comics Wolverine was always short-man representation (he was originally supposed to be 5'3", he's named after a wolverine because they're relatively small but vicious predators) and his fans were salty that they cast a 6'2" guy to play him

So even though they almost certainly won't do it, recasting him would be a way to rectify that Also to make the actor Canadian this time

HJ is 52, and the kind of working out and dieting required to maintain the Wolverine physique for another five or six movies might not be appealing to him. Nearly all the MCU's "wow, look at those muscles" actors were in their low 30s when they began MCU films.

Didn't he say or imply that he was done after Logan anyway? And even if he didn't Logan should be the end of that version of the character.

He said he was done unless they found a way to put him in the MCU, which, at the time, was probably a joke
