Marvel's upcoming X-Men reboot, directed by Jake Schreier and written by Lee Sung Jin and Joanna Calo, will explore themes of ostracism. Additionally, Robert Kirkman announces a new violent superhero comic series with Andy Kubert and Joe Casey, focusing on genetic code unlocking and a secret war between superhuman forces.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is set to introduce the X-Men in an upcoming reboot movie directed by Jake Schreier. This follows brief appearances by some of the characters in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Deadpool & Wolverine.
Lee Sung Jin, creator of Netflix's Beef, is collaborating with Schreier and writer Joanna Calo on the new X-Men film. He recently discussed how the X-Men characters are particularly ripe for drama centered on themes of ostracism. The X-Men have been a major influence on numerous other genre properties over the years, from Tim Burton's Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children to an upcoming new comic book series.
That new series is written by Robert Kirkman, the creator of The Walking Dead and COO of Image Comics. Kirkman is known for his work on The Walking Dead, which inspired a long-running television adaptation and numerous spin-offs. More recently, he wrote the comic book series Invincible, which has been adapted into a popular Prime Video animated series that has aired four seasons so far.
For the new comic book series, Kirkman is working with co-writer Joe Casey and artist Andy Kubert. According to the official synopsis from Image Comics, the series explores a secret war waged across the world by two violent forces with superhuman abilities who blur the lines between good and evil. The story follows Marilyn Howe, whose search for her missing sister Alessandra places her at the center of this conflict.
She will learn that the power to save the world comes from unlocking one's genetic code and giving up everything one thought one knew about oneself, if one survives the experience. The series is pitched as perfect for fans of Invincible and X-Men, promising to be the most violent and unpredictable superhero series of the year
