But Quicksilver was also a member of the Avengers in the comics, and Marvel Studios retained the rights to the Avengers' lineup of characters when they started to produce their own films, which began with 2008's Iron Man. Marvel's X-Men and mutant characters, which included Quicksilver, who was a mutant and the son of Magneto in the comics, which were owned by Fox, not Disney, for years, and were thus outside of the MCU's stable of licenses to draw from. The fact that there was a Quicksilver in the X-Men movies and in the MCU is a result of the strange distribution of Marvel's character rights. The MCU's Quicksilver was played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson and he died in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Evan Peters played Quicksilver in Fox's X-Men movie franchise and now he's officially part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in WandaVision! Peters was "recast" in the role of Pietro Maximoff, the late twin brother of Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen).
