Fox Rumored To Be Developing A Live-Action X-Men Television Series 

It was only a matter of time before the X-Men joined the television rumor mill.

Bleeding Cool, Fox Studios might be developing a live-action X-Men television show with a fair amount of interest amongst studio heads and producers. This is the first significant news on a X-Men television project since X-writer/producer Simon Kinsberg said in March that television was a strong option for the franchise.

While no other information is available yet, it\'s safe to assume that Fox won\'t use any of their marquee mutants for television. The core X-Men will appear in

in 2016, and any B-list mutants would likely be held for another big screen project. If we had to speculate, the show would most likely feature stalwart or ancillary X-Men, such as the New Mutants or Generation X.

However small the characters may be, it\'s fair to guess that they would live in the same universe as Bryan Singer\'s X-Men. If Fox went down this path, it would be their first steps towards a media-hopping, shared universe, much like Marvel is doing with

I\'d like to see a Cable and X-Force TV series get developed.Again,we\'ll have to wait and see if Fox makes any official announcement on whether they\'ll develope a TV series centered around mutants or not.

"Two things are infinite:the universe and human stupidity;and I'm not sure about the universe."

Generation X wasn\'t a television series.  It was a made for TV movie.  While there was talk of possibly following it up with a series, it wasn\'t a pilot or anything like that.  It was meant to be a movie of the week that could maybe become a series.  And it isn\'t that horrible.  I\'d love to see Fox release it on DVD or Blu-Ray

if Fox is truly serious about a tv show then they should just reboot the whole series again,new actors and since they are sooo good at screwing up continuity,start off with a new premise of conspiring bad guys like Arcade,Mojo,The Gamesmaster,Stryfe,Hellfire Club,Fenris,Black Tom Cassidy..

For teachers they need to go back to when the International team first appeared and go from there..An adult Banshee,Storm,Polaris,Havok,Cyclops,JeanGrey,Colossus,
