We anticipated a new teaser for
Dark Phoenix today after star
Sophie Turner's heads-up last night, and 20th Century Fox has now debuted the final trailer for what has now been confirmed to be the studio's last
X-Men film.
The trailer features quite a bit of previously unseen footage, as Jean Grey embraces her darker side and unleashes her apocalyptic power on her former friends and teammates, all the while being manipulated by Jessica Chastain's mysterious villain. There are various new shots of Jean wreaking havoc as The X-Men attempt to stop her, a potentially spoilery Magneto standoff, a rather terrifying glimpse of Nightcrawler, and much more.
This is by far the best look we've had at the movie yet, but the final product will need to be something special if it hopes to get fans fully on board come June 7.
Check out the new trailer for
Dark Phoenix below, and let us know what you think.
In DARK PHOENIX, the X-MEN face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite — not only to save Jean’s soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.
Also Starring James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Evan Peters, the film is set to be released on June 7 in the UK (as
X-Men: Dark Phoenix) and the U.S.
