Screenwriter Simon Kinberg<\/strong> recently spent time with Charles Xavier actors Patrick Stewart<\/strong> and James McAvoy<\/strong>, separately, in two different countries over the course of three days.<\/p>\n

“Two countries, three nights, two Professors… #chuck,” he wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

McAvoy reposted<\/a> Kinberg’s photo, writing “Dinner last night with the man who’s in a multi generational three way relationship with two Professors. Thanks for dinner Simon Kinberg and [producer] Hutch Parker, I can’t wait for the Summer.”<\/p>\n

The new X-MEN film has (now) been confirmed by two of its main cast members.<\/p>\n

Last week, Jean Grey actress Sophie Turner<\/strong> told reporters<\/a> “We’re about to start shooting the next X-Men,” saying she has “a couple movies to do” before filming scenes for the follow-up to X-MEN: APOCALYPSE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With a production\/working title of “Teen Spirit” aka X-MEN: SUPERNOVA<\/a> (title unconfirmed), the 90’s-set film will allegedly<\/strong> focus on Turner’s character going out of control as Dark Phoenix. In the comics, the character caused a supernova, which destroyed an entire alien civilization.<\/p>\n

Filming will take place in Montreal this Summer, just a few months after director Josh Boone’s THE NEW MUTANTS<\/a> starts production this Spring.<\/p>\n

Crossover potential is strong with this one.<\/p>\n

A director has yet to be announced. though this material is exactly what Bryan Singer said he wanted to explore with the series. He previously mentioned a desire to go cosmic with the X-Men and missed his opportunity to direct a Dark Phoenix-themed movie after his tease in X2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned for further details as they become available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
