All 14 X-Men Movies in Order
X-Men movies are always a thrill to watch, but it is fair to admit that properly determining in which manner it is best to watch them can be a bit complicated. There are thirteen X-Men movies and appearances, and on that note, we’ve decided to compile a list of all of them and explain to you the best way to watch them!
1. ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ (2009)
If we follow the timeline chronologically, the events of this movie happen first: we meet Wolverine, and he’ll become an important part of the X-Men in the future.
2. ‘X-Men: First Class’ (2011)
The movie explains how the original X-Men came to be, led by Charles Xavier and Eric, to protect mutants. It also explains the falling out between the two, and their differences are continued years later in the X-Men movie.
3. ‘X-Men’ (2000)
Years later, Charles Xavier runs a school where mutants can learn how to control their powers and be safe, and he also hopes to educate humans about it and preserve peace between humans and mutants. Magneto thinks the mutants should not be considered lesser species and is prepared to go to war.
4. ‘X2: X-Men United’ (2003)
The movie is a sequel to ‘X-Men,’ and it adds up nicely in the storyline. It is also considered one of the best movies in the franchise.
5. ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’ (2006)
It’s the final movie in the original trilogy. The ‘cure’ for mutants has been invented, threatening to eradicate them from existence. Wolverine has to make heartbreaking decisions.
6. ‘The Wolverine’ (2013)
Following the events in ‘Last Stand,’ Wolverine struggles with his loss and grief. He travels to Japan, where he faces a man from his distant past. The movie’s end builds toward the ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past.’
7. ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ (2014)
Wolverine is sent to the past to alter an important event and prevent the mutant extinction in the future. This movie erases everything after the ‘X-Men: First Class’ events and sets the new timeline.
8. ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ (2016)
It is set in the 1980s in an alternate timeline after the X-Men stopped Oliver Trask and his sentinels in the previous movie; they now face an all-powerful ancient mutant.
9. ‘Dark Phoenix’ (2019)
It takes place a decade after the events in ‘X-Men: Apocalypse,’ it is centered around Jean Grey, who absorbed the Phoenix Force.
10. ‘Deadpool’ (2016)
It’s hard to determine where exactly to pinpoint this movie on this list, but this seems like a perfect place because of everything that follows after it. You can also watch this movie after the original trilogy and ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine.’
11. ‘The New Mutants’ (2020)
The events of this movie happen before the events in ‘Logan,’ so it fits here nicely.
12. ‘Logan’ (2017)
Set a few years later than ‘The New Mutants,’ and it follows Logan in his senior years.
13. ‘Deadpool 2’ (2018)
Logically, this movie comes on the list after ‘Logan’ since Deadpool repeatedly references its events. The movie also explains what to expect in the future and how Deadpool ‘cleared’ the timelines.
14. ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ (2023)
Deadpool is offered a place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by the Time Variance Authority, but instead recruits a variant of Wolverine to save his universe from extinction.
