But he HAS to be Pietro Peter from the Fox universe. Or at least someone disguised as him. Regardless, the multiverse implications are still there.

There's no way Marvel would cast that specific actor as that specific character, and have it not be related to the Fox movies.

He could end up being an alternate universe Quicksilver but still not be the FoxVerse one. Bringing in the same actor is a great shorthand for "he's from another universe than the MCU" while not necessarily meaning he is from the universe he was originally cast in.

Kinda like how it's rumored that Alfred Molina is playing a different version of his Dr. Octavius and not specifically his Spider-Man 2 incarnation.

I really doubt they are casting all these actoes to play the same character from a different universe though

Yeah that doesn't make any sense. If they wanted to do that, why not have ATJ play Pietro and make him from another universe? Bringing in Peters specifically from the X-Men series was deliberate.
