And until the government approves of the Disney Fox deal, the rights to the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Silver Surfer, Wolverine, Deadpool, and many characters and concepts that are more tied to those franchises than anything the MCU has such as mutants will still be out of reach. Disney and Fox had already signed the deal, but the government is investigating. And some people suspect such a deal would break antitrust laws, because Fox isn't only selling the Marvel properties, they are selling their company and assets. And even with Fox News and Sports taken out of the deal, they are selling a lot of stuff to an already big company like Disney. And since Disney buying Marvel and Lucasfilm is still recent, it can look like they are buying everything.
