Fox seems to be moving forward with business as usual, despite the pending finalization of the Disney merger less than a year away. And, apparently, that business is perpetually delaying their X-Men properties. After the lukewarm release of the Dark Phoenix trailer days ago, Fox has announced that they are once again delaying the release of the film, moving it from its new February 2019 date back to a June 2019 date, according to Deadline. Along with that, the ever-in-limbo Gambit film, starring Channing Tatum, will move from its June 2019 date to March of 2020. Dark Phoenix could very…

Todd Phillip’s solo Joker film with Joaquin Phoenix is in full production mode, and lots of behind the scenes photos and videos have been released recently. The newest one leaked, however, humanizes this film and this villain in a way not seen by fans before. This video shows Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, a failed comedian who seems to have taken a job as clown. While he will eventually become arguably the greatest villain of all time, at this point he still just a man, albeit nearly the brink of breaking. The video is of Phoenix, in a full classic clown…

The first trailer for X-Men: Dark Phoenix has officially been released, and there’s a lot to take in with this film. In what seems like a reshoot of the abysmal X3: Last Stand, asFox has taken another shot at the Dark Phoenix Saga storyline. But, along with that, they’ve shoved in a major character death (the lazy writing way to create tension in a team), a stereotypical character jump to the other side, forced in a whole other storyline in Genosha (the mutant island haven founded by Magneto), and a mysterious villain who looks to turn a mutant against their…

We’re finally getting a trailer for the oft delayed and much maligned X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which, along with the upcoming (and also in flux) New Mutants film, will be the end of this iteration of Marvel’s mutants in cinema. Disney CEO, Bob Iger, has already confirmed that Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios will be taking over the iconic team once the Fox merger is completed, so we all expect a sort of reboot to bring the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe fold. Before that happens, however, we’re getting a take on one of the X-Men’s greatest stories, the Dark Phoenix…

Marvel Studios has been exceptionally tight lipped on the film that is the culmination of 10 years and 20 plus films telling an overarching story the likes that Hollywood has never seen before, but fans have been getting little tidbits here and there from leaks. The newest leak is a group of pics of concept art and screen tests for costumes. Now, most of these are heavily pixelated, but we’ll take whatever we can get at this point. We do get…
