After some 20 years of X-Men films, here is the climax at last. The mutant family we know and love must face their most terrifying enemy – one of their own. This superstar-heavy blockbuster sees Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) in the lead as beloved character Jean Grey.

A decade after the incidents of X-Men: Apocalypse, the team are hit by a sun-storm as they travel through space, and Jean begins to lose control of her powers. The boundary between Jean herself and «The Dark Phoenix» grow more and more obscure. This is allegedly the most emotional and intense X-Men film ever made, so brace yourself and buckle up!

X-Men: Dark Phoenix is the 12th X-Men film in total, and the 7th and final instalment of the main series. It is a direct sequel to X-Men: Apocalypse (2016).
