However, we’ve also learned that New Mutants has been moved from April 13 of this year to February 22, 2019.
According to insiders who spoke with THR, one reason New Mutants has been delayed for so many months is because Fox didn’t want to have any X-Men overlap movie, because in certain territories, Deadpool 2 and New Mutants would have been in theaters at the same time.
So rather than three X-Men movies being released in 2018, now there are just two: Deadpool 2 being an early summer release and X-Men: Dark Phoenix still coming out on November 2.
As for Gambit, it’s been moved from February 14, 2019 to June 7, 2019, though Fox still “believe” in the project, which is described as having a “heavy comedic tone as it revolves around a heist.”
