Five months ago saw word hit that Fox is developing an X-Men New Mutants movie, and now it’s learned the first draft of the script is completed.
Josh Boone, who is directing and co-writing New Mutants, posted the news on his Twitter account with “The first draft of New Mutants is COMPLETE” while also tagging Simon Kinberg and co-writer Knate Gwaltney.
No plot details or characters are known, but fans are hoping New Mutants will include fan-favorite character Cable.
“We’re so excited to explore this new part of the X-Men universe,” Simon Kinberg said in a previously released statement. “And so excited to do it with Josh, who is uniquely suited to tell this story about young characters.”
A release date has yet to be announced.
