Industry Insider Claims that Beau DeMayo Was Actually Fired For Sexual Misconduct on the Set of ‘X-Men ’97’

As a seasoned gamer and long-time fan of the X-Men franchise, I must admit that the latest developments regarding Beau DeMayo have left me both puzzled and saddened. The excitement surrounding the upcoming second season has been tainted by this ongoing controversy, and it’s a real shame because the show itself is an absolute gem.


X-Men ’97 proved to be a significant triumph for Marvel, despite the challenges and alterations it introduced to the established series lore. Reminiscent of the original, its animation style remained largely consistent, offering an engrossing narrative that left viewers longing for more after the first season.

It’s clear why Marvel was overjoyed with the results and numerous fans were ecstatic when they heard a second season is planned. Despite the series’ impressive run, there continue to be debates surrounding Beau DeMayo, the showrunner and initial creator.

The latest issue concerns whether DeMayo will go to the Emmys due to ‘X-Men ’97’ being nominated for an award. DeMayo was criticized by Disney, and this time they responded strongly but not directly, implying DeMayo’s misconduct. However, a well-respected industry source claims that they have uncovered why DeMayo was dismissed!

Hey there! You know, I’ve been following the story behind this show we both love. So, Beau DeMayo was hired to work on it, and he actually completed two seasons before the first one even aired. Things seemed fine, but just before Season 1 premiered, he got let go. The rumor is that he was tough to collaborate with, and Disney didn’t appreciate his having an OnlyFans account, though it wasn’t explicit content. His initial scripts were changed quite a bit, but they still gave him credit since Disney officially ended their association with the show.

Since that incident, DeMayo has been openly criticizing Disney, similar to Gina Carano, a stance he took due to the truth remaining unclear. However, the recent Emmy Award scandal stirred controversy, prompting Disney to respond and level serious allegations against DeMayo for inappropriate conduct. Yet, they failed to disclose any concrete details.

Simultaneously, well-known industry expert Jeff Sneider, through his Twitter account TheInSneider, alleges to have uncovered the true explanation. He additionally claims that DeMayo has been entirely removed from the credits for season two, which certainly adds an intriguing twist to the story. Here’s what he suggests:

Essentially, allegations suggest that DeMayo shared inappropriate explicit photos, presumably nudes, with multiple young male cast members from the series. If substantiated, this behavior would paint an entirely new picture of the situation. Neither Disney nor DeMayo have made any official statements regarding these claims, but given their potential impact, it’s a topic that will undoubtedly spark much discussion.
