Check out the [apparently] final trailer for the next instalment in the X-Men movie franchise, entitled X-Men: Dark Phoenix which features the characters Jean Grey (Sophie Turner), Scott Summers/Cyclops (Tye Sheridan), Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto (Michael Fassbender), Charles Xavier (James McAvoy), Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Quicksilver (Evan Peters) and actress Jessica Chastain, whose villainous character is described as “an otherworldly shapeshifter who comes into contact with Phoenix” and who – at least according to reports – is called Smith…
This is the story of one of the X-Men’s most beloved characters, Jean Grey, as she evolves into the iconic DARK PHOENIX. During a life-threatening rescue mission in space, Jean is hit by a cosmic force that transforms her into one of the most powerful mutants of all. Wrestling with this increasingly unstable power as well as her own personal demons, Jean spirals out of control, tearing the X-Men family apart and threatening to destroy the very fabric of our planet. The film is the most intense and emotional X-Men movie ever made. It is the culmination of 20 years of X-Men movies, as the family of mutants that we’ve come to know and love must face their most devastating enemy yet — one of their own.
X-Men: Dark Phoenix, directed by Simon Kinberg, is set for release on June 5th 2019.
