Simon Kinberg Confirms DEADPOOL and GAMBIT Will Eventually Crossover With the X-MEN



Last summer X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST reset the X-Men movie universe timeline. Next year there will be two new additions to the new X-Men movie-verse canon, with DEADPOOL and GAMBIT, and producer Simon Kinberg has confirmed to MTV they will eventually crossover with the X-Men movies.

“The idea is that we’ve sort of reset the timeline after ’Days of Future Past’ in some ways, and if not erased, certainly allowed for change from ’X1,’ ’2,’ ’3,’ everything from ’Days of Future Past’ forward, 1973, everything we set now becomes canon. So the ’Gambit’ movie, the ’Deadpool’ movie, will exist in a world that acknowledges whatever happened in ’Days of Future Past’ and moving forward. Doesn’t mean they’ll always interact with those characters, obviously, it’s not like every movie has all the characters, but they all have to exist within the same rules. 
“There will be interplay between different characters in different movies.”

If, for some reason, you weren't certain Deadpool and/or Gambit would meet with the X-Men here's your confirmation. They definitely will sometime in the future, and most likely after X-MEN: APOCALYPSE.
