While Marvel Studios is planning to reboot the
X-Men franchise at some point in the not too distant future, there's still one instalment of the main franchise left, and that is, of course,
Dark Phoenix. Directed by Simon Kinberg, the movie doesn't really have a lot of positivity surrounding it right now, especially after Fox chose to show Mystique's demise in an early trailer.
The studio is owned by Disney these days, though, and that appears to have led to an improved marketing campaign for the final
X-Men movie in the current saga.
This awesome featurette recaps the entire franchise (while making some notable omissions, including
The Wolverine and the
Deadpool movies) and teases what we can expect from
Dark Phoenix as Jean Grey loses control and ends up going to war with her fellow X-Men as a result.
If you're a longtime fan of this franchise, then you may feel some serious emotions as you watch this because the interviews they've chosen with actors like Hugh Jackman and Sir Patrick Stewart definitely tug at the heartstrings.
Check it out below, and stay tuned for more from
Dark Phoenix as this "X-Men Day" continues...
