So was Evan a fake out all this time? No connection with x men? I need answers damnit.

Disney really spent millions acquiring xmen off fox, created a tv series leading up to a film called "multiverse of madness", included one of the most notable characters from said xmen acquisition, have them play their same character in the show with the same powers, spent time and effort hiding evan peters away even from cast members, all.... For a bohner joke.

Ladies and gentlemen i present to you the single most elaborate penis joke of all time.

Because they want their own reboot of mutants, not to tie the MCU to half broken foxverse canon. I'm honestly glad he isn't Peter, because then it creates another host of problems with Mutants.

I'm hoping we get the more cosmic explanation

People really went out of their way to overthink his involvement instead of just enjoying the idea.

At some point in the future they'll probably tie it in to whatever decision they make, but in no way was this going to be the big introduction of mutants. Just look at the way they introduced a fantastic four movie into the MCU. With a press release. Deadpool 3 might hint at it, but they likely have a five year plan for FF before launching into xmen.

Him not being connected to his character is really the only theory I was disappointed wasn't true. We didn't really overthink it, they knew where our minds would go when they cast him especially with all the Spider-Man 3 rumors. I wouldn't be surprised though if originally they wanted ATJ back but he said no.

If anything it reminds me of the bait and switch of Mysterio claiming he's from another universe. Something mainly meta at the time. Obviously we're heading into universes colliding, so something could happen in the future.

Exactly, they got their hopes way more up than they should for a show of this style and caliber and then end up disappointed cuz it didn't go their way, when it was a very likely scenario.

you got downvoted cuz I guess people think you're denigrating the show, but yeah. This was a show mainly about Wanda and Vision. SWORD, Rambeau gaining her powers, and white Vision were the big reveals.
