DARK PHOENIX concept art from Aaron Sims Creative shows greater cosmic elements that weren’t fully realized.

Aaron Sims Creative has been busy posting concept artwork from director Simon Kinberg’s DARK PHOENIX film. They include a variety of locales and character designs, including looks at the aliens, their spacecraft and their homeland.

Though we got a peek at the original form of the D’Bari and their planet, it’s apparent that Kinberg originally intended to put a bit more focus on the cosmic elements of Marvel Comics’ iconic X-Men story.

The most interesting piece is a look at this “feathery friend,” who may or may not be a version of the Shi’ar race, who evolved from alien bird-like creatures. There’s also the possibility it’s another mutant; perhaps Beak?

Sophie Turner, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence fire up an all-star cast in this spectacular culmination of the X-Men saga! During a rescue mission in space, Jean Grey (Turner) is transformed into the infinitely powerful and dangerous DARK PHOENIX. As Jean spirals out of control, the X-Men must unite to face their most devastating enemy yet — one of their own.

Dark Phoenix arrives on Digital HD September 3 and Blu-ray September 17.
