‘Dark Phoenix’ Gets a Way Cool WonderCon Art Poster

Published

on

20th Century Fox’s Marvel Universe is taking a sinister turn later this year with director Simon Kinberg‘s Dark Phoenix, starring actress Sophie Turner as a fiery Jean Grey. This awesome new poster is being handed out at the ongoing WonderCon.

Set in 1992, about 10 years after the events of 2016’s X-Men: Apocalypse, “Dark Phoenix opens with the X-Men, including Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Nightcrawler (Kodi Smit-McPhee), and Quicksilver (Evan Peters), in a new, unexpected role: national heroes. Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) even lands on the cover of Time magazine. But his growing ego puts the team at risk.”

“During a rescue mission in space, Jean Grey is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite — not only to save Jean’s soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.”

Look for Dark Phoenix to light up the big screen on June 7, 2019.
