Included are <strong>Danielle Moonstar<\/strong> aka <strong>Mirage <\/strong>(Blu Hunt), who creates illusions from other people\u2019s fears; <strong>Rahne Sinclair<\/strong> (Maisie Williams), who transforms into the werewolf <strong>Wolfsbane<\/strong>; <strong>Sam Guthrie<\/strong> (Charlie Heaton), who, as <strong>Cannonball<\/strong>, can fly at jet speeds protected by a force field; <strong>Roberto da Costa<\/strong> aka <strong>Sunspot<\/strong> (Henry Zaga), who absorbs and channels solar power; and <strong>Illyana Rasputin<\/strong> aka <strong>Magik<\/strong> (Anya Taylor-Joy). The younger sister of <strong>Colossus<\/strong>, <strong>Magik<\/strong> becomes encased in armor at will and wields a soulsword that amplifies her multiple superhuman and psychic abilities. Invited by <strong>Dr. Cecilia Reyes<\/strong> (Alice Braga) to share their stories about when their powers first manifested, the five \u201cpatients\u201d come to understand that they are in a class of people called mutants, who have historically been marginalized and feared. As they relive their origin stories, their memories seem to turn into terrifying realities. Soon, they question what is real and what isn\u2019t, and it becomes clear that the institution isn\u2019t what it seems. Now the question is \u2014 why are they being held captive? And who is trying to destroy them? The tension and horror mount in this white-knuckle thrill ride directed by <strong>Josh Boone<\/strong> and co-written by <strong>Boone<\/strong> and <strong>Knate Lee<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The New Mutants<\/em> frightens theatergoers starting August 28!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With just one month to go until THE NEW MUTANTS graces theaters (that are actually&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":54107,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"#NewMutants synopsis updated with new details on the upcoming #XMen horror thriller.","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-54105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-mutants"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/x-menfilms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/nm-dem-pos.jpg?fit=1363%2C1093&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54105","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=54105"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54105\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/54107"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=54105"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=54105"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=54105"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
