FOX's new “X-Men” series taps Bryan Singer to helm the pilotJanuary 26, 2017 - 12:06 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Fans might know that FOX has ordered a pilot for an untitled "X-Men"-related series from "Burn Notice" creator Matt Nix. But there's another exciting news. Bryan Singer is set to direct the FOX pilot, AceShowbiz said. Singer has already directed four of the "X-Men" movies including "X-Men (2000)", "X-Men 2", "X-Men: Days of Future Past" and "X-Men: Apocalypse". Meanwhile, his TV credits include "Mockingbird Lane", "Battle Creek" and "Legion". Elsewhere, Matt Nix teased to CNET about which characters could appear on the series. Nix said, "The only thing that I would say is that it's a...some of those things are slightly up in the air, but the fact that it's a question I can't answer tells you something." Nix continued, "Suffice it to say it's a show that contains some characters that fans will be excited about. I can't talk about specifics, but it's not like there are no 'X-Men' in it." The pilot will focus on a family that discovers their kids are mutants and has to go on the run. However, according to Nix, the potential show won't exclusively take place inside the world of people who are already "X-Men" and know that world. Talking about how the potential show would differ from the movies, Nix said, "I'd say, a more intimate story, in the sense that's what television does well. So I'd say it also explores issues surrounding mutants and what that experience is in a way that's hard to do in a two-hour movie because [a movie] needs to move very quickly and needs to get to big action. So we can explore some of the more intimate aspects of that over time." Top stories The creative crew of the Public TV had chosen 13-year-old Malena as a participant of this year's contest.
