New X-Men: Dark Phoenix Michael Fassbender Image

A new image of Michael Fassbender as Magneto from X-Men: Dark Phoenix has been released.

The image features Erik Lehnscherr unconscious on the ground surrounded by men with what looks like some sort of hook around his neck.

Empire Online doesn’t give further details, but offers:

This film is set in 1992, roughly a decade after Apocalypse and finds the X-Men dealing with being heroes. An unfortunate side effect is how that fuels Charles Xavier’s (James McAvoy) ego. He starts sending the team on more dangerous missions, including one to space that ends with Grey going to some very dark places. “It’s about duality,” Turner tells us, “darkness and light, this sense of her being a completely other person and struggling with that…”

X-Men: Dark Phoenix has a November 2, 2018 release written and directed by Simon Kinberg also starring Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee and Jessica Chastain.
