“Dark Phoenix” star Alexandra Shipp would play the X-Men character Storm over and over again if she could — and if she couldn’t, there’s another mutant she’d want to be.
“I’d want to be Quicksilver,” the actress told TheWrap. “My dad was a hurdler and my brother ran track — plus, Quicksilver is so funny!”
Evan Peters reprised his role as the mutant with superspeed in “Dark Phoenix,” alongside Sophie Turner, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult and Jessica Chastain. “Dark Phoenix” marks the end of the Fox series of the “X-Men” films, given Disney’s acquisition of the studio, and thus, the future of the franchise is kind of up in the air right now.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix is here and we're putting together all the various Marvel Comics references hidden throughout.
This article consists of lots of X-Men: Dark Phoenix spoilers. We have a spoiler free review here.
The X-Men Cinematic Universe has reached the finish line. After three initial core movies, four core movies from a rebooted sequel timeline, three Wolverine movies, two Deadpool movies, and a New Mutants fiasco that may or may not see the light of day, it’s time to pack it in. X-Men: Dark Phoenix is the last big showing of Fox’s genre-defining and, in all honesty, fascinating line of movies.
As always, being a superhero movie, there are a ton of comic book references throughout. Being an X-Men movie, that also means that throwaway heroes and villains are named after obscure comic book characters that they have very little to do with. Man,...

Simon Kinberg says he’s interested in sticking with the X-Men as they enter the McU.
Simon Kinberg has been involved with the Fox Marvel universe since first coming on board as a screenwriter for 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand. Since then, he’s been a writer and/or producer on every X-Men related film and TV show since, including high points like X-Men: Days of Future Past, Logan and Legion, as well as less well-regarded offerings like X-Men: Apocalypse.
Now he makes his directorial debut on the 12th and possibly last film in the Fox Marvel continuity, Dark Phoenix, a retelling of the classic story that was mishandled in X-Men: The Last Stand (a.k.a. X3). The film arrives following the completion of Disney’s purchase of Fox, which will allow Disney’s Marvel Studios to (presumably) reboot characters like the X-Men and the Fantastic Four...

Starring James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Evan Peters, and Jessica Chastain, Dark Phoenix arrives in theaters everywhere February 14, 2019.
In Dark Phoenix, the X-men face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they...

The Deadpool movies pretty much stand apart from the mainline X-Men franchise, but Deadpool 2 did feature Professor X and his mutant students in a brief cameo. It looks like X-Men: Dark Phoenix is going to return the favor, too, as a new character introduced in the upcoming film was first mentioned in an easter egg in this May’s R-rated sequel.
Early on in D2, the Merc with a Mouth takes out a gang in Asia. Just before undertaking the job though, he looks at the bank card which has a name in Chinese written on it. This translates into English as Red Lotus, which we took to be a reference to the obscure comics character of the same name. Now, it seems that this was setting up his upcoming role in Dark Phoenix.

The first trailer for X-Men: Dark Phoenix recently dropped and it was met with a lot of mixed reactions. Some people liked what they saw, while other people didn’t.

Thanks to director Simon Kinberg and actress Sophie Turner, we now have some new details regarding the film to share with you.

Here’s what Kinberg had to say to IGN about Chastain’s character and how she is drawn to Jean’s power. But, he still won’t reveal who exactly she is. He wants to keep a shroud...
