Fox own this character? I would be surprised if thats the case. Gladiator was part of the whole Guardians of the Galaxy-verse and not Fantastic Four or really X-Men related. It would be interesting to see an article with the break down of which studios own which characters at this point. More and more seem to be reverting to Marvel which in my opinion is a great thing.

I think they're going to reboot X-Men, with a new backstory for Professor X.
They're going to have Professor X as a young, kick-ass, tattooed, wise-cracking tough guy who's a top-notch street racer and car thief. He gets in a terrible accident that leaves him in a wheelchair, and with telepathic powers. He puts together a new mutant posse, and gets himself a tricked-out wheelchair. Then, the government comes to him for help in breaking up an evil mutant car theft ring, and he reluctantly agrees to help.

Re: What Does Marvel Want With Vin Diesel?
They were introduced and have primarily been associated with the X comics. Though it is a massive universe and characters roam about due to the realities of such things happening. They're X characters. Though they do associate themselves with galaxy related events that affect them. And honestly I would love to see them in a Marvel film. That goes for the Inhumans too. Another Fox thing, I think. I think I heard they were somehow different though and not Fox. So that'd be neat. But I'm pretty sure on anything Shiar being Fox cuz of the X-Men.

So people can stop writing in fan letters to get Dazzler into the next Avengers.

Quiksilver is supposed to be used in both the upcoming Avengers and X-Men movies.

Supposedly Marvel had exemptions written into the Fox contract for the few mutant characters that appeared in the Avengers. But the contract was written in the '90s, long before the popular characters like Wolverine or Spider-Man were made regular Avengers.

Marvel apparently does have the rights to The Inhumans, Kevin Feige talked to Entertainment Weekly about them earlier this year.

That's a good article.
I still would kill for a Black Panther film starring Djimon Hounsou.
