“Chicago Med” actor Ato Essandoh<\/a><\/strong> has been added to the cast of director\/writer Simon Kinberg’s X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX<\/a> saga. He’s listed on the IMDB<\/a> as playing the character Jones. Whether or not that’s a pseudonym for a different character remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

Essandoh recently instagrammed<\/a> a set photo that’s similar to the ones posted by Kinberg<\/a> and actress Jessica Chaistain<\/a>. His specific photo shows a bit more of the outdoor production equipment.<\/p>\n

Since he was in the same area as Chastain while she filmed her first scene, it’s speculated his role could be connected to hers. Perhaps as another villain for the X-Men to face? We’ll have to wait and see!<\/p>\n

“Dark Phoenix” flies into theaters on November 2, 2018.<\/p>\n

Thanks to @JenLawFilms<\/a> for the heads up! Above photo courtesy of Elizabeth Sisson for NBC.<\/em><\/p>\n
