X-Men: Dark Phoenix is one of three mutant-related movies releasing in 2018 – the other two being The New Mutants and Deadpool 2 – and while the movie is based on The Dark Phoenix Saga, it will reportedly take the series in a new direction.
Jennifer Lawrence says working on X-Men: Dark Phoenix has been her best acting experience so far in the long-running franchise.
The studio previously attempted to adapt the storyline in Brett Ratner’s X-Men: The Last Stand.
And now, under Kinberg’s direction, she finally had the chance to work on an X-Men movie that was balanced and coordinated prior to cameras rolling.
