Fox Wants To Bring X-MEN To TV | Badass Digest
Definitely can see this working with various better character arcs.

Would this mean new actors as Wolverine and the lot, or just focusing on other mutants not in the movies?
Once Apocalypse opens, that'll likely be the last core X-Men film for a while, and they'll have to rely on spinoff characters to keep the rights. Most likely, the TV show is a way for them to keep a constant production going, so Marvel doesn't get it back. It'll be interesting to see how they pull it off.
It's tough to be sure, but I don't know that a tv show guarantees the ongoing film rights given that they're two separate mediums.
But, assuming Apocalypse is good I'm OK with Fox keeping the X-Men. They've done alright so far, with only a couple huge missteps (x3 and wolverine origins). Certainly I'd like to see Marvel get them back, but until they crank out a couple stinkers on the level with the last FF movie I can't see it happening.
