The X-MEN Suit Up And Assemble In This New Still From DARK PHOENIX
The response to the first trailer for Dark Phoenix has been more than a little mixed, but most are pleased to see the X-Men in actual costumes and we get our best look yet at those in this latest still...
At the end of X-Men: Apocalypse, the X-Men finally got superhero costumes which were pretty much torn straight from the pages of the comic books. It felt like a long overdue move, especially as Marvel Studios has proved that pretty much any suit can be successfully adapted for the big screen. It, uh, makes perfect sense then that those have been ditched for Simon Kinberg's X-Men: Dark Phoenix.
As you can see below, the team is now sporting uniform outfits which sort of resemble what we've seen in the comic books but arguably aren't quite as satisfying as the ones used in X-Men: First Class.
However, the X-Men assembling alongside Professor X like this definitely feels like it's been lifted straight out of the source material and if the movie's trailer was any indication, this is the moment the heroes assemble for a showdown with Jean Grey. How will that battle play out? We can probably just watch X-Men: The Last Stand to find out but here's hoping Kinberg brings something new to the table.
