Fox Studios delays the release of the X-Men movies, X-Men: Dark Phoenix and New Mutants.
X-Men: Dark Phoenix gets pushed back from November 2, 2018 to February 14, 2019.
New Mutants gets pushed back for a second time from its original April 13, 2018 release date to February 22, 2019, and now gets delayed to August 2, 2019.
New Mutants also recently underwent reshoots and the addition of a new character.
I really don’t mind if the X-Men movies release dates gets pushed back, it gives them all the time they need to get the movies right and even better.
X-Men Dark Phoenix is set roughly 10 years after X-Men: Apocalypse, where the X-Men are now known as nationally celebrated heroes, but the fame gets to Professor X’s head,which leads the X-Men into a cosmic adventure.
