X-men seems unlikely considering those films have been pretty successful. Why would they give that up.

Infinity War: I might be the earliest opportunity given that they would need to cast the roles. They likely wouldn't fit into Thor. Maybe something in Black Panther. Too bad Cumberbatch is Dr. Strange. I think he would have been a great Reed Richards. Maybe someone like Matt Smith (who has a kind of rubbery face) or Eddie Redmayne; For Sue someone like Alice Eve or Yvonne Strahovski; an up-and-coming 17-year-old heartthrob type for Johnny Storm, and Terry Crews for Ben Grimm/The Thing.
I don't see the rights to X-Men going back any time soon. I think Fox is planning on just building out it superhero universe around X-Men and mutants. Also this story is now being reported as unconfirmed and maybe not the case. I'm guessing it's just an early leak. Not to mention Marvel has added some untitled movies to its lineup, and one of them is probably Fantastic Four. If there is a deal being worked out I'm sure it goes beyond just TV to include X-Men movie licencing and merchandising rights, which Marvel has been blocking and in the process denying Fox hundreds of millions in tie-in revenue. Also, they will probably want Marvel to support and promote the X-Men comics. FF is a bargaining chip. It's a toxic pill to Fox at this point, but Marvel knows it can revive the franchise.

Dam, well it's a shame I really liked the tone of the ff movie I just wish it could have been executed better.
One thing about Marvel movies is the family friendly formula I guess they like to play it safe. FF4 if they could have played up the whole horror sci-fi part would have been awesome and they could bring in some villains from the negative zone.

If true this is awesome news. 
Someone throw a bucket of cold water on Nova and wake him up, I think he fainted.

Bingo. Unlike F4 and Spidey the franchise isn't going downhill, rather the contrary

Well they still have to sell the dvds. So look for them to "hold on to the license" until the dvd tanks as well
