New DARK PHOENIX photo is a familiar one.

The official DARK PHOENIX social media accounts updated with a previously seen image with the caption: A family divided. Earlier in the day, however, a variation of this photo found its way online, thanks to @NicholasHoultBR on Twitter. It features slightly different poses of the cast, which includes Alexandra Shipp as Storm, Andrew Stehlin as Red Lotus, Nicholas Hoult as Beast (sans glasses), Kodi Smit-McPhee as Nightcrawler, Kota Eberhardt as Selene and Michael Fassbender as Magneto.

So what’s going on here? We’ll leave that for you to figure out, but based on the first trailer we know that Professor X (James McAvoy), Cyclops (Tye Sheridan), Storm and Nightcrawler have a confrontation with Magneto, Selene, Beast and Red Lotus outside Central Park. Everyone seemingly gets roughed up a bit, although Selene looks perfectly fine; maybe it has something to do with her powers? It’s obvious there’s division among the X-Men as something happens which leads to them separating from the Professor and Cyclops.

Dark Phoenix arrives in theaters June 7, 2019.

One thought on “%1$s”

This looks like a still from a fan film. The only one that looks vaguely like a mutant is Nightcrawler.

Actually? It kind of looks like a movie about a punk band who supports the lead singer’s cancer-ridden father through his boxing career. The furry blue elf is a hallucination the father sees due to some combination of cancer and head wounds. But it’s okay, because the power of love and punk music (and chemotherapy) means that he ends up in remission, fully recovering from his cancer and able to win the boxing championship. Then he stops seeing the furry blue elf and realizes that it was just a manifestation of his love for his kids the whole time. Then the daughter’s punk band wins a rock competition that they almost missed because she was with her recovering dad, and it’s a happy ending for everyone.

That sounds like a much more interesting film than Last Stand 2.0 does.
