"The Gifted", he added, does "not share a universe with" the films or other "X-Men" series.
Fox's The Gifted, from X-Men filmseries director Bryan Singer, promises to bring more mutant action to television, and fans got another close look at San Diego Comic-Con.
The clip also highlighted Emma Dumont's Polaris, known as the daughter of Magneto in Marvel Comics lore, who's confronted by Stephen Moyer's Reed Strucker, a known mutant hunter. Thankfully, he decides to quit throwing mutants in jail, and instead joins his wife Kate (Amy Acker, Person of Interest) and their children as they all try to stay alive.
"Right now one of the things that comes out in the show is the X-Men are gone", Nix said when asked whether members of the superhero team would appear in the show. FX aired the first season of Legion a year ago which has gotten an incredible response from fans and critics and now, Fox will be airing a new show titled The Gifted this fall. The family will seek help from a network of mutants during the series. That's a thing in the show. Joked Nix, "It's not just that they're too expensive for television but that may be related". When cornered, Chung's character uses her power to open a portal - one that she disappears through, and which does apparent damage to the police auto racing toward her. Why are the X-Men gone?
"One of the great favors that Days of Future Past did for all of us is establish there are many streams, so one answer is we exist in one of those streams", Nix told the crowd at The Gifted's SDCC panel "The idea is that this is definitely its own universe".
The QUALCOMM Incorporated (NASDAQ:QCOM) Scheduled to Post Earnings on Thursday
Marietta Wealth Management LLC acquired a new position in shares of QUALCOMM during the fourth quarter valued at about $2,539,000. FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE:FE) for the trailing twelve months paying dividend with the payout ratio of 0.00% to its shareholders.
After showing the generous amount of footage, Nix talks about the show's place in the X-Men franchise saying, "Thanks to [the X-Men movie] Days of Future Past there are many streams and we are not in the same timeline in the X-universe".
X-Men or no X-Men, The Gifted has every opportunity to live up to its title when it premieres on October 2 on Fox.
The Powers: Dumont is a ballet dancer in real life, so she used her dance training to create graceful hand movements to use her powers.
While the show won't dovetail into the movies, viewers will see more and more mutants as the Struckers are forced to go on the run from a hostile government, joining up with an underground network of mutants that must fight to survive.
