Beau DeMayo’s exit from X-Men ’97 is not a huge loss in his career.
It was truly a shocking day when fans found out that X-Men ‘97 showrunner Beau DeMayo was fired from the show a few days before the series premiere. No concrete explanation was given, and he also remained silent about the issue for a long time.

As many would assume that DeMayo’s termination from the project would spell failure and doom, it’s definitely the least of his worries as he’s got a stellar roster of critically acclaimed shows.
Beau DeMayo And Marvel Studios Shockingly Severed Ties Before X-Men ’97 Premiere
What happened between Marvel Studios and Beau DeMayo was still a mystery to everyone but rumors started circulating the moment the news was out in the world.

Marvel Studios’ streaming, television, and animation head Brad Winderbaum initially addressed the controversy via Entertainment Weekly though he did not give a telling reason as to why they parted ways with DeMayo.
Of course, the more the reason is hidden from the public, the more people will speculate. DeMayo actively promoted X-Men ’97 on his social media platforms, but he was also criticized for regularly posting topless gym selfies and owning an OnlyFans account.
There has not been any confirmation if these matters affected his gig with Marvel Studios or if Sneider’s scoop was actually right. Regardless, DeMayo remained passionate about the show, and he gave his full heart and soul in creating it. In fact, many fans demand that he return for the X-Men live-action reboot.
On Beau DeMayo’s Stellar Television Works
Beau DeMayo getting fired by Marvel Studios does not exactly mean his career is over. If one would look at his impressive work list on IMDb, he’s written many more critically acclaimed projects such as Moon Knight, The Witcher, and The Originals, to name a few.

His works received impressive scores from critics, with 9.0 being the highest (X-Men ’97) and 7.1 being the lowest (After the Storm). Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight was a recipient of an Emmy Award, while The Witcher won two British Academy Television Craft Awards.
After the report of Marvel Studios being close to hiring a new writer for a planned live-action reboot of the X-Men franchise, there is always a possibility that DeMayo and Marvel Studios might patch things up and return to working together again.
X-Men ’97 is available to stream via Disney+.
