10 Things You Need To Know About The X-Men & Fantastic Four's MCU Future

9. Madripoor Will Be Introduced In The Falcon And The Winter Soldier

Marvel Studios now has access to thousands of characters and locations that were previously off limits to them in the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to Fox owning the rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four film franchises.

The ink on the deal between Disney and Fox has only just dried, but Kevin Feige's toy box is already overflowing, and he's taking advantage of that. Based on set photos which have done the rounds online for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, the fictional Southeast Asian nation of Madripoor will be somewhere the heroes pay a visit to in the Disney+ series.

A home primarily for pirates, Madame Hydra has often ruled over the country, but it's perhaps most noteworthy for being somewhere Wolverine called home. While there, he donned an eyepatch and took on the moniker of Patch, and it would be crazy not to get some sort of reference to that in this show.

An actual cameo appearance is probably too much to hope for, but with the obscure mutant Wiz-Kid set to appear in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, it's clear that the MCU is already taking full advantage of what they gained from Fox.
