WandaVision

You do realize these timelines are super wonky, right? And that they can go through time via Forge and Bishop? Quicksilver was supposed to be a pre-teen in DoFP?? And then is the exact same age in the 80's/early 90's set AoA and Dark Phoenix?

They're comic book movies. The ages are made up and the points don't matter.

The X-men movies were an absolute mess with timelines. This is the MCU's chance to fix it.

The timelines of these films aren’t “wonky.” They are set in specific time periods.

According to what I can find, Peter was born in 1955 in the FOX timeline. So no, he’s not a preteen in 1973 unless my math is really bad.

And that’s precisely my point, that FOX has given us nonsense with these characters to the point of it just being laughably bad...and Disney would be smart to just leave the ashes of that trash exactly where they lay.
 
So Peter just casually stayed the same age for 10-20 years....uh huh.

They are that wonky and bad. But there are notably loved characters, and Evan Peter's Quicksilver is one of the them. The others are Prof. X, Magneto and Wolverine. They can retcon the rest like they've always done and people would be fine with it.

Deadpool has already been confirmed to have transferred over and work on the 3rd movie has been set to begin soon. I honestly doubt that they'd bring in Prof. X or Magneto, but it would make sense for someone to go looking for Peter who just blipped out of that universe. And it's far too meta for them to just cast a very beloved actor who played a very much beloved other version of Quicksilver, just to throw it in the trash as stunt casting.

But I also didn't want Luke in Mando, so...

For what it’s worth, just because someone looks the same doesn’t mean they’re the same age in two different years. I often get carded for alcohol with our “We Card Under 25” laws here, despite being 42. I’ve looked basically the same (save for weight fluctuations) for the past 20 years. So you’re suggesting he’s “the same age” is silly at best, as he’s obviously not the same age over the timeline of these films.

I agree that several of these FOX actors have taken on the embodiment of the characters...Jackman IS Wolverine. Stewart IS Charles. I don’t know if I agree that Evan Peters is on that level. I personally don’t know anyone that liked his character in the X-Men films he was in.

As for Deadpool, that’s a completely different subject as it’s a character/film series that is so absolutely different from anything else that it’s hard to even try to figure out how he will fit into a larger expanded universe.
