With all the news floating around relating to
FOX and
Disney, you would almost forget
Dark Phoenix is even coming out. Originally, it was supposed to drop in theaters this November, but now it's slated to release on February 14th, 2019.
Putting that aside, it seems the first trailer has debuted at CineEurope tonight, and, as far as we can tell from the somewhat rough translation, the footage suggests that the movie will have a lighter tone than we'd been led to believe it would.
Here's the initial reaction from
Kinometro writer Artur Chachelov.
“But the fantastic action thriller DARK PHOENIX (in Russia – from February 14) looks better than expected. At the presentation, his new trailer was shown, getting rid of the excessive gloom of the teaser and clearly positioning the project as a direct continuation of the X-MEN . In addition, other projects of the Marvel universe – NEW MUTANTS and GAMBIT – were announced in this block , but there are no materials on them yet.”
There hasn't been any word on when the official trailer will release online, but hopefully we'll hear something soon.
