Where to Stream All the X-Men Movies Now That Deadpool 3 is Out

Deadpool & Wolverine, also known as Deadpool 3, is out in theaters now. Now’s the time to catch up by watching all the X-Men films in the franchise before or after you see the new movie. While there’s no official order in which to watch the films, there’s a general consensus based on how the timelines play out or which events in the films connect the dots (and Deadpool’s jokes).

There are a few different ways to enjoy your mutant marathon, so we’ve outlined two ways to do it if you’re looking to immerse yourself in the canon. Some fans may want to create alternate options or check out one of the dozens of lists and videos explaining complex timelines. Yes, the much-maligned X-Men Origins: Wolverine is in here, so it’s up to you whether or not to watch it, but you should definitely binge-watch X-Men ’97 for a bit of razzle-dazzle.

The best part is that you can stream everything easily because it’s all in one place: Disney Plus.

X-Men Timeline Order

Here’s a suggestion if you want to stream according to timeline stories, which can tie certain plot points together more efficiently. X-Men: Days of Future Past is one of the most important films in the franchise because it involves time travel. Wolverine lives in the year 2023, where Sentinels are hunting down and killing mutants. To prevent this outcome, he flies back in time to 1973 to find Bolivar Trask, the creator of the Sentinels. The 2023 X-Men crew knows that Trask’s death sets in motion the chain of events that lead to the bleak future. What happens in this film is a readout, or reset, for the events of X-Men, X2, Last Stand, and the Wolverine films.

Since Logan is set in 2029, it’s listed here at the end.
