I just had a great idea. What if this time around the fates of the other X-Men are left ambiguous. Then, in a future film that is set after Apocalypse, we see that they actually went into outer space some time during the mid-90's. Maybe in that story there could be some kind of big event (perhaps a "fiery" event) through which they are forced to leave Earth.

Professor X could say something like: "I'm not sure where they are now. I haven't seen them for about 35 years." That way we could still continue the series without jeopardizing the self-contained nature of the story.
