X-Men: Dark Phoenix trailer still
In Dark Phoenix, the X-men face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful but far more unstable.
The first trailer of the X-Men: Dark Phoenix is out now and with this, Sophie Turner's Jean Grey gets her very own movie in the X-Men universe. The trailer gives an in-depth look at Grey's journey from an unwanted child who accidentally contributes to a car accident, to a young woman who resorts to seeking out counsel form Magneto (played by Michael Fassbender) after feeling betrayed by Charles Xavier (played by James McAvoy).
