On the progress of the film’s script, producer Kinberg told IGN last month “They’re doing a really nice job of it, and it’s a really cool one, because in many ways, like Deadpool was so different from the mainline X-Men movies, New Mutants… It’s maybe not as different as Deadpool, but it has its own unique, original voice to it.”

There’s no official word on when we can expect to see the New Mutants on the big screen, though Fox has Octber 6, 2017 and January 12, 2018 pre-scheduled for upcoming Marvel projects.
