The X-Men and the Fantastic Four are coming to the MCU…eventually. Thanks to Disney’s historic merger with Fox, Marvel Studios got the rights back to their missing characters earlier this year, which means that we’re on road to seeing rebooted versions of the First Family and the mutant heroes that can finally crossover with the likes of Spider-Man, Black Panther and Doctor Strange.
The only thing is that we’ve been told not to get too excited just yet as president Kevin Feige has warned that the studio won’t get around to introducing the X-Men and the FF into the MCU for a “very long time.” And though that’s certainly not what we want to hear, at least we’ve now been promised that when the time comes, it’ll have been worth the wait.
In an in-depth interview with the Los Angeles Times, Christopher Markus, who co-wrote Avengers: Endgame, spoke on the topic of the new glut of characters Marvel’s just received from the merger, promising that Feige will deliver something unlike what we’ve seen before.
“It’ll be fascinating to see what Kevin Feige does with the properties he’s now getting from the Fox merger with X-Men and Fantastic Four. And to see what the MCU version of those things is, because I very much doubt it will be something that resembles what you’ve seen before. So that will be very exciting.”
Behind The Scenes Photos From X-Men: Days Of Future Past That Every Fan Should See
Feige has only revealed so far that he’s got “vague” ideas about how to approach working these iconic characters into the already bulging franchise, but that hasn’t stopped fans from coming up with theory after theory after theory about how it could be done.
A common thought was that Endgame would tee up the introduction of the X-Men or the origins of the Fantastic Four, but that didn’t turn out to be the case – at least as far as we can tell. If you have any ideas about how the movie could have laid some breadcrumbs, though, be sure let us know in the comments section down below.

Despite being a reviled serial killer who was executed in 1989, 2019 has been a pretty big year for Ted Bundy. Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes was a huge hit for Netflix and proved so popular with viewers that the streaming giant actually had to issue a statement explaining that it’s not alright to start openly professing how much you fancy Ted Bundy.
For one, what it doesn’t tell us is that his girlfriend Elizabeth had actually found several clues relating to his crimes around the house. In fact, it was these very clues that led to her calling the police back in 1974. As Esquire explains:
Those clues inspired her to make her first call to the police in 1974. While she was on the phone, she lost her nerve and hung up. One month later, when the abductions began happening in Utah as soon as Bundy moved to Salt Lake City, Kendall called the cops again. The police said they’d already cleared Bundy—but Kendall continued to think back on clues which pointed to Bundy’s involvement, from the crowbar he took from her house, to a hatchet under the passenger seat of his car, to plaster of Paris she once found in Bundy’s desk drawer which would explain the suspect’s arm cast.
Zac Efron Is Ted Bundy In New Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil And Vile Stills
Commenting on why he left this stuff out, director Joe Berlinger said:
“In the book there were a few clues along the way that made her scratch her head, as it would anybody. I want the audience to invest in the relationship between Zac and Lily, and to believe that relationship so that by the end of the film, when she finally holds him accountable, I wanted the audience to also feel the same level of disgust that she’s feeling because, for the first half of the movie, you were almost lulled into a sense of, well, maybe he’s not such a bad guy. I want people to feel revolted at the end and I think that would have been impossible to do if, in the first 10 or 15 minutes, she finds a knife in the glove compartment.”
To make up for not showing us the clues, Berlinger instead added that scene of the dog barking at Bundy, which didn’t actually happen in real life. As far as we know.
Something that did happen in real life, however, was Elizabeth moving on to date someone from an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. In the movie, though, it’s one of her colleagues at work who she becomes romantically involved with. It’s not a huge change, sure, but it’s interesting that the filmmakers made it nonetheless.
What’s also interesting is the final scene, where Bundy admits to Elizabeth that he used a hacksaw to cut off one of his victim’s heads. In real life, he never confessed to Liz. Instead, he just hinted that he was guilty, saying:
“There is something the matter with me … I just couldn’t contain it. I found it for a long, long time … it was just too strong.”
Explaining the change, Berlinger said:
“We’re in an era of accountability, I wanted Liz’s character to really hold him accountable at the end and make him say those words to her face. That was a bit of a departure from the book.”
And while we’re on the topic of that conversation between Ted and Liz, in real life she also asked him if he ever tried to kill her at any point, to which he admitted he did, saying that “he once closed the damper at her house while she was sleeping so the smoke couldn’t go up the chimney, then he left after putting a towel under a door so the smoke wouldn’t escape.”
Finally, the last of the major changes Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile makes to Ted Bundy’s story is in his relationship with Carol. For one, their random encounter at that dog adoption center didn’t actually happen. Instead, it’s thought that Ted and Carol had stayed in touch – to some extent – over the years. And as far as her revealing to him that she’s pregnant right before his sentencing, that also didn’t happen, given that their daughter Rose was born in October 1981.
Of course, there are likely a lot of other minor details that the film changed about Bundy’s life, but on the whole, it was a mostly faithful adaptation and though its decision to shy away from showing the truly evil side of Ted is questionable, it’s still a gripping look into the life of one of America’s most horrific serial killers.

HBO’s Game of Thrones is a dense series with a huge weight of history behind its story. So in practically every episode, something happens that could use a little explanation. Every week, The Verge will dive into a scene or event from the latest episode of the series and explain how we got here. Whether you’re basically a Game of Thrones maester or you need a little reminder about previous events, we’ll try to help you keep your history straight.
We’re in the final stretch now for Game of Thrones, and this week’s episode underlined the point that’s been clear throughout the past eight seasons: it really is all about the throne. Or, more specifically, who sits on it.
Spoilers forGame of Thrones, in general, but especially season 8,...
Spoilers ahead forGame of Thrones,season 8, episode 4, “The Last of the Starks.”
In the lull after the giant ice-zombie battle of the Game of Thrones episode “The Long Night,” Jon Snow makes a significant decision. In “The Last of the Starks,” he decides to entrust the secret of his identity as a lost Targaryen heir to his sisters, Sansa and Arya Stark. He innocently believes that if they swear they won’t tell a soul, his secret will be safe with them. But right after Jon swears Sansa to secrecy, she turns around and divulges the information to Tyrion.
The moment seems like evidence that Sansa can’t keep a secret, or doesn’t care about her word of honor if she sees a way to forward her agendas against Daenerys Targaryen. But the...
The Israel Defense Force says that it stopped an attempted cyber attack launched by Hamas over the weekend, and retaliated with an airstrike against the building where it says the attack originated from in Gaza. It’s believed to be the first time that a military has retaliated with physical violence in real time against a cyberattack.
Violence erupted this weekend as Hamas and the IDF launched attacks against one another in the last three days. Hamas fired more than 600 rockets into Israel, while the IDF conducted its own strikes against hundreds of what it characterized as military targets. Thus far, at least 27 Palestinians and four Israeli civilians have been killed, with more than a hundred wounded. Tensions between Israel and Hamas...
With Europe’s Parliamentary elections approaching later this month, Facebook has set up an operations room to monitor for misinformation, fake accounts, and election interference that violates the site’s rules, reports The New York Times and The Guardian. The effort is designed to prevent the types of wide-scale campaigns that could influence elections.
The Times says that the room is similar to the room that Facebook set up back in October 2018 ahead of the 2018 midterm elections in the United States, and elections in Brazil, which the company closed at the end of November. Facebook also set up a similar center in Delhi, ahead of this year’s elections in India. The reports says that this new room, located at Facebook’s European...

Some of the collection’s comics will go on display at the Thomas Cooper Library on August 29th. The debut of the collection will also be accompanied by a series of events at the school, such as talks by comic book authors and artists.
The collection includes a number of rarities, including Avengers #1, which depicted the first teamup of Stan Lee’s creations in 1963, along with titles that introduced characters like Spider-man, Batman, Black Panther, Iron Man, and more. The university says that...
