Warning: Spoilers
A new photo from Starlog's latest X-Men: The Last Stand issue has hit the Web that spoils a major subplot of the film (see below).
In it, Bobby (Iceman) Drake (Shawn Ashmore) is putting the moves on Kitty Pryde (played by Ellen Page). But where's Rogue (Anna Paquin)?
Meanwhile, director Brett Ratner told XMenFilms.net: "For me, these movies begin and end with character. All the characters evolve over the span of the trilogy, so I'll just pick a few to focus on. Wolverine probably has the biggest arc from first to last movie. He goes from being a loner to being a leader, and he becomes more human in the process.
"Rogue's struggle with her powers finally gets resolved in our film," Ratner reveals. "Jean obviously transforms from the mild-mannered Dr. Grey of X1 to the Dark Phoenix of X3. In the first film, she is totally in control of herself and her powers. In X2, she starts to lose control. In X3, she finally snaps, spiraling out of control.
"Storm's politics become more radical over the three films, and she becomes more a powerful leader. Likewise, Bobby really evolves, becoming more empowered and mature over the three films. Magneto, Xavier, Cyclops, and others also evolve, which you'll see for yourself."

The movie hits theaters May 26.
