In an exclusive interview withScreen Rant , Simon Kinberg mentioned take a sense for howDark Phoenixwould tie - in with the ending ofDays of FuturePast . On this connection , the film writer and director said,“I have some sense of it , yes , because I always palpate as though I ’m sort of responsible for the computer architecture of this and making trusted that it all lines up . So I do have some sense of it , but I really did think this movie , in truth , as the culmination of this cycle of X - Men films and so I was n’t really think past this plastic film other than wanting to ensure that the logic was all effectual . “In other words , not only doesDark Phoenixline up withDOFP , it culminates the totality of Fox ’s X - Men film series . Despite this sense of how the films connect , Days of Future Pastis riddled with continuity problems , since the film completely alter the timeline of the past plastic film . Hopefully , Dark Phoenixcan clean up some of these error .
Kinberg also state during the audience that working onDays of FuturePastactually helped to gestate the estimate forDark Phoenix . He said , " I actually would say that theDark Phoenixidea was was set up in the conclusion ofDays of Future Past . In changing the timeline ofDays of Future Past , part of the reason I did that was I require a luck to tell theDark Phoenixstory in a more soapy manner where it ’s really like the fullDark Phoenixstory and focuses on Jean ’s account different thanX - Men : The Last Stand . “So it seems Kinberg had plans forDark Phoenixlong before the film ’s construct . He added , " My vision for it , I intend , even going back toDays of Future Past , is middling consistent , because really what I felt when I was thinking about doing eventually aDark Phoenixstory was the idea that we would be tell Jean ’s fib . That we would be really focused . That we would narrow down the scope of the film down even though there ’s an intergalactic element and a scurf and spectacle that you ask from these movies . “In other words , while the film does climax the current cycle of ten - Men films , it is still very much Jean ’s story at the film ’s pith .
At the moment , the future of the X - Men is somewhat of a mystery , but the novel ownership give many doors , allowing characters who have never been seen on - screen together to interact . X - Men having a place in the MCU will allow Marvel the opportunity to adapt the comics for the big screen door in exciting new ways . In the meantime , Dark PhoenixandThe New Mutantsare the next in wrinkle for release , and only time will tell what the future holds for the Adam - Men cinematic presence .
