    I think they'll just do whatever serves the current movie plans. If they want certain characters they'll either already be at the school (with no explanation of how they got there) or they will be introduced during the movie. They only have to adhere to the continuity featured briefly at the very end of DOFP - anything else is immaterial.

    It may come out that 'something similar' to the events of the other movies happened, but probably not - why complicate things for themselves ?

    I agree. Yes, the producers can pretty much throw out as much or as little of everything besides First Class and Days of Future Past, but X1 does not deserve that much more "still happened" than X2 and X3. After all, Wolverine is supposed to show up in X-Men: Apocalypse, which will presumably significantly alter the 1979 portions of Origins and therefore Wolverine meeting the X-men in X1. Meanwhile, well, Stryker's got to trouble the X-Men somehow in some X2 fashion, right? It's Stryker.

    Seems like it will be X-Men: Apocalypse, Deadpool, Gambit, and possibly X-Force down the line.

    I'd rather not see a crossover of any kind from either of the franchises just yet anyways. There's a lot of stories left to tell.

    I agree, x-men don't need a crossover with FF

    I definitely prefer movie X-Men in their own seperate universe.

    As the article says, the continuity has reset since then.
