Not really heard much about the TV show, I am a fan of this actress it's peaked my interest
I think what most fans would want down the line is for Marvel to get the rights to all the characters so they could do their version of X-Men (the right one, basically), as the Fox movies have nerfed or completely altered the major characters in ways people didn't like, especially when it comes to Rogue and Jean. People will say they screwed up Wolverine too, but you can't let Wolverine go full Wolverine in a PG to PG-13 series so I try to take it easy on them in that regard. Modern superhero movies were only just coming back once the X-Men films started, and there's just no way the studio would've allowed Logan to lop people's heads off and dismember them to pieces.
As for Magneto, I think if Fox continue his story or revamp him in the future, or Marvel get the rights by some miracle, they should just make the character who he is. The films pussyfoot around him a lot. Is he good? Is he bad? In the comics he can shift in morality, but as a whole he's a guy who thinks mutants are superior to humans and he will do anything to protect mutants from the human race, as he despises them for how they treat his kind. In future movies I'd like to see him as a far more tragic guy, who started off facing the Holocaust and its oppressive force, and that life event caused him to be scarred for life as his ideology ultimately became tainted with cynicism and aggression. He's a nasty and cold man, but it's very much due to the effect of his environment on him as opposed to him just naturally being that way. They could get a lot of mileage out of a character like that, as he has depth and feels very human (despite the mutant part).
You're right, that'll be an issue for them. If they wanted to keep to comic origins for them, they'd have to treat the films they did as period pieces, as they did with Singer's latest ones, to avoid them overaging too far.
So cool.
