Fans looking forward to X-Men: Dark Phoenix and New Mutants, get ready for some disappointing news. Both of the films mentioned before will be getting delayed for different reasons.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix has been pushed back from November 2018 to February 14, 2019. This is due to scheduling conflicts between actors needed for reshoots for the film. Reshoots are common practice in the movie industry but as we have learned over the years, some are good (Rogue One), and others are far worse (Multiple DCEU Movies).

New Mutants was already delayed once for reshoots and now it’s being delayed for a second time for more reshoots. New Mutants was planned to come out in April 2018, where it was pushed back to February 2019. Now, it got pushed all the way to August 2, 2019. The reason for the first delay was to make it scarier. So, Director Josh Boone delivered a cut of the film that he was satisfied with. However, FOX now wants to do more reshoots so the movie can stand out as tonally distinct the same way Logan and Deadpool did.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix will open in theatres on February 14, 2019.

The New Mutants will open in theatres on August 2, 2019.

Although we don’t have any footage of X-Men: Dark Phoenix, New Mutants did release a trailer a couple of months ago which you can check out down below:
