Marvel's X-Men Reboot Reportedly Lands Director of Highest Rated MCU Film in Years

Editor's note: This article contains spoilers for Thunderbolts*.
The man behind the Thunderbolts may be switching from the New Avengers to some even newer mutants. Thunderbolts*director Jake Schreier is reportedly in talks to helm the upcoming X-Menfilm for Disney and Marvel Studios, according to Deadline. While nothing is set in stone, this would be another feather in the cap for a director whose most recent MCU film has garnered high praise.
Details about the process remain unclear. However, Schreier has reportedly been one of the top choices to helm the upcoming X-Men film, according to Deadline, with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feigereportedly working hard to find the perfect fit. It's unsurprising, then, that he would land on Schreier, given how well Thunderbolts* has been received following a string of less-than-stellar MCU films. But nothing is set in stone yet.
