Jessica Chastain has officially confirmed her role as the lead villain in next year’s X-Men: Dark Phoenix.
It had previously been reported that Neramani will be on a mission to imprison (and destroy) Grey as the ultra-powerful Dark Phoenix, throughout the course of the film.
And as the film’s title not-so-subtly reveals, Dark Phoenix will pick up where last year’s X-Men: Apocalypse left off, and follow Sophie Turner’s Jean Grey as she begins her transformation into the Dark Phoenix.
And whether or not the film manages to successfully pull that off could very well be the key determining factor of its overall quality.
