WARNING : Major looter forAvengers : Endgame .

Even thoughAvengers : Endgamedid not   feature any X - Men characters , it may have on the QT included a agency for mutants to be brought into the Marvel Cinematic Universe . For the first eleven year of the MCU , Marvel Studios has been unable to use the X - Men and Fantastic Four . The   MCU has perform   just finefocusing on Iron Man , Captain America , Thor , and others , but many have been concerned to see if , how , and when the X - Men could one day be bring within the massive shared creation .

This is now possible thanks to Disney ’s learning of Fox , which is expected to result in a complete reboot of   all Marvel characters previously owned by Fox , except for Ryan Reynolds ' Deadpool . However , the deal did not close until sooner this yr and entrust Marvel Studios with trivial time to add   references to mutation , the Baxter Building , or any such Easter eggs toAvengers : Endgame . This was for the best though , as the movie was allow to rivet on the news report at hand , and since theX - Men may not be fully introduced into the MCU for several more years .

The integration of mutants may not be theprimary focal point of Marvel Studios head Kevin Feigeright now , but they are no doubt begin to reckon how this sudden add-on could be possible .   Thanks to a major present moment at the commencement ofAvengers : Endgame , they may now have the double-dyed way of life tobring them into the fold- even if this was n’t intend .

Thanos' Second Snap Destroyed The Infinity Stones - And Released A Lot Of Cosmic Energy

At the very beginning ofAvengers : Endgame , the remaining heroes are all trying to figure out what their game programme is going to be to try and stop Thanos . They agree thatthe best plan is to go on the attackand kill the excited Titan , assume the Infinity Stones for themselves so they can undo what he ’s accomplished . Nebula uncover that he would go to his garden , which Rocket is able-bodied to locate by find an energy theme song that is as gamey as the one that strike Earth when Thanos snapped his fingers originally inAvengers : Infinity War .

But , when they get in to the garden and think they ’ve gain after cutting off his hand , they strike thatthe Infinity Stones have been destroyedafter Thanos perform a 2nd snap fastener . This is a big deal as far as the game ofAvengers : Endgameis refer , as it eventually turns the fighter towards metre travel , but   it is could also be the key to unleashing mutant . Destroying the stones   with another gingersnap bring out an unbelievable amount of cosmic energy , and possibly even   the power of the Infinity Stones as they were reduce to atoms . The combination of this power could be how the ten - Men are make in the MCU .

One of the most pop aspects to   possibility   on how the MCU will introduce the decade - piece is through the approximation oflatent X - factor being activate . This has already possibly been done before in - universe of discourse , as Marvel Studios ' Visual Dictionary antecedently suggest that Scarlet Witch get   her ability as a result of   the Mind Stone"unlocking something latent inside her,“and this would theoretically be the same for Quicksilver too . We ’ve antecedently theorized thatScarlet Witch and Quicksilver could be two of the first mutant in the MCUafter an eventual retcon , and thanks to the various snaps inAvengers : Infinity WarandAvengers : Endgame , this may now be capable to be utilise across the entire galaxy .

Could Thanos Have Awakened The Mutant Gene With The Snap?

The second snap specifically could be the key to the enlargement of the ex - man in the MCU . The cosmic energy that the second elasticity afford off could scatter the office of theInfinity Stonesacross the galaxy . If this did fall out , then anyone   could unknowingly be shoot with the combination of cosmic muscularity and Infinity Stone molecule   and then see their own latent X - gene be activated . This would be a great move too , as it could straight off help establish cosmic X - world in the MCU .

Back on Earth though , this same muscularity and atoms could potentially make human beings and commence the activation of dormant X - factor . However , there were also three other snaps that took office on Earth , which would make it the home to a gamey engrossment of cosmic Department of Energy . These cracking may not   secrete the   full index of the Infinity Stones , but any Department of Energy they make is still generate from them . This could mean that after the second snap spark off X - cistron around the universe , these additional snaps could give off enough energy to awaken more . Plus , as Earth is sure to be the home of many mutants in the MCU , using these other snaps to waken additional disco biscuit - gene could explain why Earth ( of all places ) has a large   mutant population .

As far as Marvel Comics has explore , the snapping of someone ’s finger has never been the cause of an increase in the mutant population , but something akin to cosmic energy has .   The 2012Avengers Vs . X - Menevent saw a blast of   Phoenix Fire   covering   Earth and activated sleeping X - factor across the globe . The same thing could happen here , but using the cosmic energy of the shot being the incite incidents , and the multitude of them   increasing the amount of transformations .

Thanos Creating The X-Men Post-Snap Would Create A New Mutant/Human War

Thanos being the accelerator for the X - Men ’s introduction in the MCU would not only be a not bad elbow room to link up their awakening into the big history , but could also be a reason why mutant and human - kind would not see eye - to - eye .   A certain amount of public disdain for the X - Man has always been key to how they are impersonate in the funnies , as they ’ve ordinarily been a   symbol for oppression , racism , and more .   But , in a globe where the Avengers are the large celebrities on the planet and people with powers are usually seen as Hero , it isdifficult to detect a reasonwhy mutants would not encounter the same handling in the MCU .

But , if   the birth of the X - mankind in the eye of many   is linked to Thanos in any way , then the resentment towards him could then be pass along to the ex - Men . People in the MCU are undoubtedly happy to see that their bed ones are back live , but having these new powered hoi polloi literally be the result of Thanos ' legal action   could easily make them dislike , whether by the majority   or just a vocal minority . This could exchange over time , but mutants being create as a result of Thanos and the most horrific event that the galaxy has ever seen does   immediately put   them in a position where they could be at odds with the rest of humanity .

Other Potential X-Men Origins In Avengers: Endgame

Even if the picnic do not ensue in the creation of mutants , Avengers : Endgameteases a few other X - Men connections . One speedy furrow of dialogue from Okoye may beteasing Namor   subsist in the MCU , and he is oftentimes referred to as Marvel ’s first mutant . His mutant cistron may have already been activated or not be part of the character in the MCU if he and Atlantis are already submerged though , but there ’s another mention that could also be setting up the X - work force .

Peggy Carter references someone by the name of Braddock during one of her shot , and even though many have taken this as a minx that Brian Braddock aka Captain Britain is live and getting his powers in 1970 , it could also typeset up a future X - Men . Whether this Braddock is Brian or possibly his father James , the Braddock kinsfolk also features Betsy Braddock , who is a variation better recognise as Psylocke . It is improbable that she is the factor in question during this prospect , but her begetter or buddy being involve may also establish her own entry to the MCU , once the balance of mutant - kind is introduced .

Whether or not this theory turn out to be true or any of these hints inAvengers : Endgamecome to pass , it is decipherable that Marvel Studios has heap of options at their fingertips to insert the tenner - humans . They could even do areverse House of M storylineand have Scarlet Witch bring the mutants into being . Since it is n’t clear what Marvel Studios will do , we ’ll just have to look and see what they decide .
