New X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX Photo Shows Jean Grey All Decked Out in Her X-Men Costume
We’ve got a new photo to share with you today for X-Men: Dark Phoenix, and it features Sophie Turner as Jean Grey all decked out in her comic accurate X-Men costume.
Over the course of the franchise, some fans have been wanting to see this style of X-Men costume from Grant Morrison's New X-Men run brought to the big screen. Now that it’s here, what do you all think?
In Dark Phoenix, the X-Men face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling our of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite - not only to save Jean's soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.
Dark Phoenix is being directed by Simon Kinberg and also stars James McAvoy, Alexandra Shipp, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, Nicholas Hoult, and Jessica Chastain, who will be taking on the role of a mysterious villain in the story.
A trailer for the film was released a couple months ago, which you can watch again here. The film has undergone some pretty serious reshoots that involve the third act of the film.
With all of the additional work that needs to be done on the film, including the visual effects, the release date was pushed back to June 7th, 2019.
