Expect A Much More Mature Cyclops in X-Men: Dark Phoenix


Written by marcie on October 20 2018

Tye Sheridan teases a more mature Scott Summers aka. Cyclops in Dark Phoenix. Marking the directorial debut of longtime X-Men films producer, Simon Kinberg, the forthcoming Fox superhero film is the fourth movie in the brand new X-Men prequel continuity and will put the focus on Sophie Turner’s Jean Grey as she fully assumes the persona of the Dark Phoenix.

Based on Chris Claremont’s The Dark Phoenix Saga, the film will see the return of the familiar faces such as as James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique) and Nicholas Hoult (Beast), as well as younger actors led by Turner and Sheridan. Now slated for a June 2019 release date, the first trailer for the movie may not have blown away people, but following its special panel at New York Comic Con 2018, buzz has been positive, which is a good indication that Kinberg may have actually made up for the critically panned X-Men: Last Stand.

Speaking with Screen Rant during this year’s New York Comic Con, Sheridan teased what to expect from Scott when fans reunite with him in Dark Phoenix. While he didn’t give any specific narrative points away, he shared that his character will be more mature in the upcoming film, which is kind of needed considering he’ll have to man up in order to effectively deal with Jean’s situation.
