Director Josh Boone recently confirmed that the film is officially in the pre-production stage, which should help bring more information on the project to light.
The film has no confirmed cast members, but Anya Taylor-Joy and Maisie Williams have been heavily linked as Magik and Wolfsbane respectively.
With New Mutants being the first film out the gate next year, it is a good sign that production is on track to film this summer.
Dark Phoenix, on the other hand, has had a rather mysterious pre-production process.
