Noah Hawley‘s adaptation of the Legion comics for FX (which feels very far from any other comic book adaptations on TV these days) was one of the most visually astonishing series of 2017.

He hatched the … Continue reading ‘Legion’ Will Not Take Place in the ‘X-Men’ Cinematic Universe!!!

There’s no shortage of superhero entertainment these days, especially on TV, but if there’s one newcomer I’m truly excited about, it’s Noah Hawley‘s mutant mind-bender, Legion.

Hawley seems to be leaning into all the visual and … Continue reading ‘Legion’: FX Confirms Early 2017 Release Date with a Crazy Awesome New Teaser!! Check It Out!!
Back in June, Legion showrunner Noah Hawley (who also helms FX’s Fargo series) commented that his series — which focuses on the son of Charles Xavier, David Haller, who has extraordinary abilities he has trouble controlling — would not necessarily connect to the larger X-Men universe.
