With the primary cast in place, and a release date fast-approaching, actual filming on New Mutants is kicking off this month as planned.
New Mutants kicks off a big year for X-Men fans in 2018, with the tale of super-powered teenagers due to be followed up by Deadpool 2 and X-Men: Dark Phoenix that same year.
It’s an amusing play on the New Mutants working title, which is also “Growing Pains.”
The sitcom Seaver family never experienced anything like New Mutants, however.
