Josh Boone's The New Mutants has been delayed multiple times and while reshoots were supposed to take place that would have drastically altered the tone and added new characters, they still haven't happened and there's less than a week to go until the Disney/Fox merger is officially completed. 

While it's possible that the movie could quietly debut on Hulu or Disney+, there's also a chance it might never see the light of day.

Now, a new rumour has surfaced revealing that Wolfsbane (Maisie Williams) and Dani Moonstar (Blu Hunt) will have a lesbian relationship in The New Mutants, a major departure from the comic books but a decision which obviously brings some much-needed representation to the X-Men Universe (R.I.P.) and the superhero movie genre in general. 

Whether or not we'll actually get the chance to watch this play out remains to be seen, but if this test screening took place fairly recently, it's feasible Disney could just choose to release the movie in its current form before Kevin Feige reboots these mutants for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
