This may have been Marvel Studios ' way of retconning Olsen ’s Scarlet Witch and Taylor - Johnson ’s Quicksilver as mutants in the MCU . However , this does n’t necessarily mean sealed occupier of Sokovia are sport , asit ’s also potential that one iconic X - Men villain from Marvel Comics may have been scheming and scarper experiment long before HYDRA set themselves up in their Sokovian stronghold .

Marvel Studios could at long last bring in Sinister to life in the MCU , and connnect him to the enfranchisement ’s past stories .
Mister Sinister was teased relentlessly in20th Century Fox’sX - Menfranchise , but never debut in live - action . Marvel Studios could in conclusion bring Sinister to life in the MCU , and connect him to the franchise ’s retiring news report by having him be active in Sokovia 10 ago . It ’s possible thatSinister may have experimented on Sokovian citizens , develop their genetical marker and perhaps even implant superhuman ability , which could excuse why so many Sokovians had these markers when HYDRA came to town .

The Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were the children of Magneto in Marvel Comics , prior to 2015 ’s retcon .
Mister Sinister can still keep his Marvel Comics backstory in the MCU , which will allow him to hold his British strait-laced roots . He may have issue forth to Sokovia for the same grounds as HYDRA - the Eastern European nation was remote , and so his unusual experiments were unbelievable to be noticed . If Sinister had experiment on Wanda and Pietro ’s ancestors , his genetic edits would have passed down into the succeeding superheroes . The Gemini the Twins were turn over mutant in Marvel Comics for over five decades , so it would make signified for them to somehow be connected to theX - Men in the MCU .
