There have been several nods to the X-Men in the MCU since Disney acquired the rights back in 2019. From cameos in The Marvels and Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness to Wolverine's entry in Deadpool & Wolverine, the references have been mounting up.
Captain America: Brave New World, the latest Marvel Phase 5 entry, is no different, bringing in Adamantium to the universe, which is the metal that Wolverine's skeleton is made of. According to Marvel producer Nate Moore, this is all part of the studio's plan to slowly introduce the X-Men for when an eventual movie rolls around.
