X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX Set Pic Teases A Return To The Danger Room; NEW MUTANTS Casting Speculation

The first photo from the set of X-Men: Dark Phoenix has popped up online, and it would seem to confirm that Charles Xavier's team of young mutants will be returning to train in the Danger Room...

20th Century Fox recently announced that Simon Kinberg would helm the next installment in the main X-Men saga, and it looks like shooting is set to commence very soon in Vancouver.

As construction on the set gets underway, we have what is supposedly an image of the exterior of The Danger Room, which we saw in the final moments of Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse. There's also a photo of Sophie Turner posing with a fan.

In related news, Omega Underground has spotted some intriguing Twitter activity pertaining to the New Mutants movie. It seems director Josh Boone has started following young iZombie actress Kimi Alexander, who recently teased some type of "sci-fi" related audition on her Instagram account.

While this doesn't seem like much, keep in mind that Omega Underground were the first to report on Blu Hunt's (Mirage) casting under similar circumstances, so this is definitely worth keeping an eye on, at least. If Alexander is indeed in the running for a role, could it be Karma, perhaps?

@JohnnyTBP - Sorry this is unrelated to your comment but:

Why is Sophie Turner in quotes? Is that only allegedly Sophie Turner? An impostor? Where is the real Sophie Turner?

Don't expect much sadly enough. Apocalypse was a real shit show unfortunately.

@BlackBeltJones - You know who wrote the screenplay of X-Men: Apocalypse?

Simon Kinberg, you know who is writing, directing and producing this movie?

Simon Kinberg. Why the [frick] the people still watch this movies? If X-Men: Apocalypse was the regular kind of product one can expect from Hollywood, i dont expect this movie to be any different...

Whatever I'm looking forward to this if only to see a better crack at the Phoenix Saga. I won't know how excited I am until a trailer comes out so I'll just reserve any disappointment until then.

@Yaf - I think you're misunderstanding what I meant about the 10%.
Yes, you are absolutely right spot on about what the XMen are about...BUT there is so much more to the XMen than fighting prejudice AND Magneto in EVERY movie so far.
Seriously...
X1 - Prejudice and Magneto
X2 - Prejudice and Magneto
X3 - Same and same
XFC - Finally, they don't fight with Magneto but he still ends up a Villain in the end...However, Singer did NOT direct this.
DOFP - Prejudice and Magneto.
X:A - They end up fighting Magneto. Seriously, how do you defend that?

There is SO much more to the XMen than what we've got in 6 movies. I mean they finally got Wolverine right in his LAST movie. Thank god.

@capcyclopsftw - See, if that's your issue then I understand and I agree to an extent. It'd be amazing to see a movie about the X-Men stopping Lucifer and his dirty bombs, them up against Ord and Battleworld and all. I totally get what you mean when you put it like that.
