'Secret Invasion’ Brings Us One Step Closer to MCU’s X-Men

The new Easter egg may address the MCU's version of the X-Gene.

Up until recently, the characters from one of Marvel's most famous superhero teams were completely outside of Marvel Studios’ grasp. The monumental shift came about through Disney's acquisition of the entertainment assets of the FOX Corporation in 2019, granting them ownership of the entire FOX portfolio in the film and television realm.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law featured a few mutant references, most notably the introduction of Marvel Comics’ Mister Immortal , a man with an aggressively fast healing factor that he uses in the show to fake his own death and escape from relationships.

How Does the MCU Change the X-Gene? In the comics, mutants are typically depicted as human beings who possess a genetic trait known as the "X-Gene." This gene, introduced as a latent potential in Homo Erectus by the Celestials, distinguishes mutants as humans with the capacity for further evolution. However, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the concept of mutants has taken on a different form.
